Glad it is friday. Did bike at gym with real weight plugged in to it. I think the machine has an ugly side now that I have been totally honest with it. Seemed to be alot tougher on the hills in the program. But hey, maybe I imagined that. The walk to the car went really very well. It was 98 degrees. I only stopped once,(did not sit down),for about 30 seconds, then plowed on. I was quite pleased with myself. Now that is not to say I wasn't dripping wet with sweat, my eyes were glazed over, and my car seemed like an mirage in the desert BUT all in all it wasn't bad.
Also my daughter ran on the treadmill today for 45 SECONDS! Shocked her so bad that she could do that, that she just stopped cold. She has been walking for weeks and has participated in a 5k walk/run.
Got some good comments today on here and facebook about food choices. THANKS FRIENDS! Does anybody know if tortillas are ok with turkey by that I mean are they a better choice than wheat bread? Gotta get to the grocery tomorrow.
Regarding the scales, I just don't think I will weigh for a very long time. It just bums me out too much at this early stage of the game.
Next week I am going to the BIG gym.

Tortillas are definitely not better than 2 slices of wheat bread. Usually have more fat, calories, and carbs. However, you can purchase low-carb tortillas that are actually better than regular ones to me personally. They nutritional values for these types of tortillas are about equal to 2 slices of wheat bread. If you can find tortillas that have more fiber, that will outweigh some of the calories. I don;t know the brand of low-carb tortillas I buy, but they are sort of brown in color and look kinda like a wheat tortilla. Yum! :)
Also try these things called Sandwich Thins. multi grain, no trans fat, high fiber, only 100 calories. looks like a super skinny bun. In my store, is over there with the hamburger buns, etc. Sam's has them too. I hardly ever buy real bread anymore.
