Today's challenge: We had guests today and also went over to another person's house to eat and so I was not eating my routine type of foods. I also did not count my calories throughout the day so I was guestimating my calories to try and keep on track. I feel like I did a good job. I do want to be able to eat out of my routine and not go over because life does take us away from our home where we need to make wise food choices. So, I look at today as an opportunity to practice eating sensibly. Normally I would have eaten several cookies, drank the calorie filled beverages that were available, or eaten the butter loaded garlic bread that was also available. But feel I made wise choices and that allowed me to stay close to my caloric range.

Actual fitness: 5 mile run in about 43-44 minutes. I used my stopwatch but forgot to start timing it until I'd already ran 2 1/2 blocks.

Note on no sweet-n-low and no caffeine: Began to feel a little stomach upset in the last mile of my five mile run. Still loving not being controlled by caffeine. I'm working on catching up on my sleep.

Note on picture: Yes, I know, I already showed you a picture of the french silk pie. But this thing tasted so good, I thought it deserved a closeup.
