Day 25

So 25 days into the new diet I'm definitely not doing as well as I did on the last one.  Now this diet's been complicated quite a bit with health issues which has limited how much I could do at times, but I'm really going to need to refocus.  I have two weeks before I go on my vacation and I'm still debating what I'm going to do to track food on that trip.  Since I won't be able to post on a daily basis as much, I'm thinking I may simply put the diet on hold for the two weeks I'm gone.  Not sure if it's the best idea though, so I'm still considering.

Food today:  egg and cheese sandwich (300 calories), turkey sandwich and some grilled chicken for lunch (800 calories), pasta, sauce and garlic toast for dinner (1000 calories).  No exercise for one more day.

Today's Results:
Daily Food Total:  2100

Exercise:  0
Points Earned:  900
Total Points Earned:  30135
Points to go:  169865

Day 25

Team Challenge (http://www.ccteamchallenge.org/) was both a great training program for a half-marathon, and a great experience in general.  Meeting new people, learning strategies to help with training, and just generally learning more about Crohn's and Colitis.  The biggest lesson I learned from the training program though is that it is a thousand times easier to go running with people rather than do it alone.  Luckily the past couple of weeks I've been meeting up with some people from the team to go running.  Since I'm planning to do T.C. again, it makes things a lot easier to get prepared for the eventual training.

For exercise today I went running.  We did about 3 miles total in 45 minutes which I'm calling around 400 calories.  Food today was straightforward enough.  Another breakfast sandwich (300 calories), a peanut butter sandwich with a glass of milk for lunch (700 calories), and dinner was salmon, rice and green beans (900 calories).  The only snack was a slice of cheese (100 calories).
