Day 5 - Winter and Exercise

So here in the northeast winter is kind of a pain when it comes to exercise.  The kind of activities that are always available in the summer (biking and running for example) can be wiped out for weeks at a time thanks to a pile-up of snow and ice.  Admittedly going for a walk in the snow (as well as short-term activities like shoveling) can still be a good source of exercise, but it definitely puts a damper on a routine.  Nonetheless I did get out today for a walk during lunch, and then followed up by walking my sister's dog after work.  Not quite the 45 minutes of running my schedule called for, but you do the best you can.  At the very least I'm still heading in the right direction.

Food today:  egg and cheese sandwich for breakfast (300 calories), turkey sandwich for lunch (500 calories), penne, sauce and garlic toast for dinner (1000 calories).  Snacks included some peanut butter (100 calories).
