Day 18 - 2 Mile Walk with a Friend

Barry is out of town this week, so it has been a bit more difficult for me to go to the gym. However, my friend Laverne picked up Emily for me on Monday night so I could meet with Dave - THANKS LAVERNE! and last night my friend and neighbor Janine went walking with me. It was a beautiful evening for walking! We walked 2 miles in about 45 minutes and when we were almost home we realized how quickly the time had past and we had such a good time catching up with each other! I wore my pedometer and we walked over 5,000 steps! Yeah us! We also checked our heart rate and I had my heart rate up to 142. I think that is good, but not sure. I've got to e-mail Kelly and ask. Thanks Janine for joining me! I really enjoyed the walk!

I have to say this week has been much tougher with Barry not being in town. He is a huge balance and support for me and not to mention an EXCELLENT cook! We've had some really good meals since I've started this. We had talapia, salmon, shrimp, steak, zuchinni and most of it grilled. Yummmmy! I suppose I should not write this blog when I'm hungry! :-)

We also got a puppy this weekend for my son Devin. Ravin is a black lab and she is beautiful. Not sure how old she is, but our guess is 3-4 months. With her around, there is no sitting and vegging on the couch. I think she goes potty every 15 minutes and both dogs have to go. Sadie just for moral support I think. Isn't she sweet?
