Sitting here in bed got my jazz music going and Nat King Cole came on singing Oh What A Wonderful Day and I thought that will be my very first song on my walking and running music list just listening to that made me think of being outside seeing the blue sky the birds and trees it was great, I mean here I am in my bedroom laid up not able to walk let alone run and that song came on and lifted my spirts and gave me some hope, silly right.

I'm not sure if this is working.....

  So, I have decided to replace a few things in my diet so that I have the same experience as eating the things I used to, but not so much the calories.  For example, I replaced potato chips with sliced carrot chips, It's been helping at lunch a lot.  I have not, however, found a replacement for ice cream yet.  Frozen yogurt is ok, I think I found a replacement with lassi, but I need to figure out how to make it first and if it has as high of a sugar content.  I'm not doing great on the exercise front.  Yesterday I hurt my ankle, I'm not sure how, I was just.......standing.  Getting some water, aaaannnnddddd, ankle hurts.  Still hurts today, so I'm being careful with it.  I have also been getting a lot of exercise at work.  The standing and walking is doing a lot to make me realize how out of shape I am and what I need to start doing in the way of exercising.  Oh man, I'm out of shape.  I need new clothes for work, but I'm really only buying things that will either last me for a few sizes, or I can alter later.  I know this is disorganized, and not my usual format, I just wanted to get something up before I started my work week.  It's going to be a busy one!

Well another 2 weeks in the cast but the next 2 weeks I will be totally off work no working from home. So with the next 3 days the hubby will be home I am going to get his help with some exercises. Oh had a soda today :(
Well have not done all that bad I have a couple sodas but have really cut down notice I mostly go for a soda when I am stressed. I am day 3 of only 1 sugar in my coffee in the morning and I have only had 1 cup each day. Only processed food has been the yogurt in the morning and I hope that will change soon. Once doctor gets me out of this cast I will be able to move around in kitchen. I have been drinking more water and I am happy about that. Still not doing my dumb bell work out and that is a bad thing need to get my butt in gear.
