Saturday I was kind of bleh on the diet. For breakfast I had an Egg McMuffin and a Diet Coke. Egg McMuffins are like 280 calories — not the most healthy choice, but not bad and pretty much the best thing McDonald’s offers. For lunch I had a slice of hamburger and a piece of birthday cake at Jessica’s birthday party. Then for dinner I had the boys (Mason and Dylan) and we ended up going out for some ice cream. It wasn’t as bad as it sounds but it was still bad. Then later I had a grilled chicken sandwich from somewhere.<\/p>\n

To atone for the sugar infringements I decided to add a little extra on to my nightly walking routine. I usually walk the big rectangle around my neighborhood. I’ve measured the distance with my truck and it’s 1 mile exactly. A block or two from the far corner is a small park. My plan Saturday was to walk the normal route until I got to the far corner of the neighborhood, walk to the park, walk back to the far corner, and continue the lap.<\/p>\n

Turns out, the small park that’s “really close” is only “really close” when you’re driving a car. When you’re walking in the dark, it’s much further — another half a mile. The good news is, it only took me about 45 minutes to do the 2 miles, and my shins only hurt for an hour or so (haha). I did it again last night as well. It’s not a bad little walk, although that part of the neighborhood is kind of dark. I also managed to walk through a spiderweb somehow in the middle of the street, which sucks when you’re hot, sweaty, and a mile away from your house.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
