Setting my Goal 45 minutes of Walking

Today was a good day, this is my third start to my goal to lose 70 pounds, but I am not fretting and embracing the process. Met my walking goal today with ten minutes of walking being my next goal tomorrow. I do want to lose the weight but my primary goal is to get physically fit enough to walk 45 minutes at a time because we are going on a riverboat cruise in Europe and I have to be able to keep up with the tour group, going to be lots to see and I don’t want to miss out! Wanted to give a special shout-out to our good friends John and Cheryl Roberts who came to visit us this past weekend, we really enjoyed spending time with you we hope you have an Awesome rest of your trip, we are blessed to know you, you two are the best 🙂
Oh and we already ordered the new security cam and are looking forward to playing with that baby, now we will almost be as cool as you PizzaMan…almost 🙂 Next time we can make some authentic Joe’s New York Pizza at the house, brace yourselves…I am learning to cook, heaven help the those who dare to eat it 🙂
We have officially signed up for hello fresh 🙂 Check it out people, 3 meals a week that you prep yourself with all fresh ingredients.

I have a new toy on the way to track all of my fitness and health progress (Apple Watch Series 3), coming tomorrow, I can’t wait. I will be sharing all kinds of data on this blog so people can see how I am going about getting in shape. Thanks, PizzaMAn for inspiring me to be better!

Made Dinner for the first time in a Long time…Family affair!

Well, today was a great day, I did get a bit of a late start, but I did accomplish what I set out to do today. We decided to give HelloFresh.com a try since I wanted to start helping my Grandma cook. So today all the ingredients for our next 3 meals came in a great big box, each meal had its own bag of stuff, with the cold items like meat in the bottom, all of it wrapped in a layer of insulation.

The three meals this week include pork grilled cheese sammiches with cucumber tomato salad, Italian orzo, and meatloaf and mash with green beans. Tonight we opted for the Italian Orzo and it was delicious, it’s basically Italian sausage, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, chicken stock, mozzarella cheese, water, salt and pepper, and Italian seasoning, all simmered in a pan and then covered with panko breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese, and then set under the broiler for 4 minutes until golden brown. Grandma and I cooked together for the first time in a long time and it was fun 🙂 It really turned out well and we have leftovers, W00t! So far, I would say if you like to try new things for meal time and you can afford about $110/week, HelloFresh.com is a great option, you don’t have to spend time at the grocery as everything is portioned out for only what you need.

Almost met my movement goal today, will have to kick it into high gear tomorrow, calorie intake looking good 🙂 Until the morrow, remember, get active and stay Attractive! 🙂
