Day 16 - Lunch and a walk

Well, David decided that he wanted to go to The Olive Garden for lunch today. He asked if that was ok with me and I said.... "Well, it is your birthday. If that's where you want to go, then that's where we will go!"

It was VERY crowded for a Thursday at 12:30pm! David said... "I don't know how people have the money to eat out like this all the time, and why they don't weigh 400 lbs!!" Going out to dinner or lunch is a treat for us. We go, but not every day and not even every week.

I usually get their Soup, Salad & Breadsticks. But, this time... I really wasn't in the mood for soup. ---Yes. I know!.... I should have just stuck with the salad!

So, I decided to get the classic lasagna. It came with a salad and of course they delivered those yummy breadsticks to the table, too! -- Now that I think about it... We should have had them NOT bring the breadsticks to the table! Oh well. I only ate two.

David and I, both, only ate half of our meal and brought the rest home for dinner --- although, I probably won't eat mine. I may let one of the girls have it. I am not even hungry and I certainly don't need any more of those calories, even tho they were yummy! **Smile**

We took the dogs for a walk later this afternoon. I don't know how far. I should have clocked it. Oh well. It was probably close to a mile.

At the moment, my pedometer reads -- 7266 steps, 2545 of those steps were aerobic (probably from the dog walking!), 192 calories burned, and 2.75 miles. So... at least I DID exercise after I ate that yummy lunch! --- I have a meeting at church this evening, so these numbers will go up some.

Tomorrow morning, we are leaving to go camping. I won't have internet access, so I won't be able to blog. What I WILL do is... I will take my Exercise Log book with me and keep track of any exercise that I do while camping and then post about my weekend when I return.

Hope you have a great weekend!!
