Meals for 10/13/09

Hello friends! I just wanted to start out this post by thanking each and every one of your for your nice words on my weigh in results...you don't know how much it encourages me to know that I have so many people out there wishing me well:) You have all inspired me and keep doing so...we will fight this fight and win it together!

This morning I got up and even though I really just wanted to sit and chill with Riley on this dreary, foggy and rainy day I got off my butt and went downstairs and walked 2 miles on the treadmill at 2.5 mph on 2% incline...that was about 50 minutes worth. I feel great! My feet are a little sore...it is a little hard for me to walk as much because I do have some osteoarthritis in my right foot where I had surgery last year...so it gets a little sore and achy but I am trying to not make that an excuse because I know that one large reason it hurts so much is because of the weight that it carries everyday!

I came back upstairs and had a bowl of my favorite cereal and a banana...

I am going to enjoy my Mexican Corn Chowder for lunch again today...check back later:)
