Day 8 & 9

Saturday was a simple day. Got to the post office to mail a package to the daughters and grandson back in Ohio. Picked up a new pedometer and found out it qualifies for my Flex Spending Account. So immediately wrote myself a check for reimbursement. We headed over to one of the last days of the Minnesota RenFaire. Was tough to lay off the foods they had for sale, but I finally cracked. Had a soft pretzel. I did get some lemonade, but boy was it way too sweet. I think it is because I have been drinking so much water lately that my taste buds are changing. I did manage to get in 4300 steps that day.

Sunday. I couldn’t have asked for better weather. After a simple breakfast of a slice of whole grain bread and some peanut butter, I got dressed and headed out for a walk. Once I started, I couldn’t stop. I had my cellphone with me, and snapped some photos along the way, enjoy the weather. By the time I got back, it was 95 minutes later and I had logged 10,289 steps. That was great, but the mistake I made was not bringing water with me. When I got home, I downed about 32oz in one sitting, but I believe I got dehydrated. I did have a terrible headache a little bit later and had to lay down for a while.

On Monday, it’s the first of three diabetic counseling classes. Looking forward to getting more information.
