Day 4 - So I made it and I took a little walk too.

Due to the whether we decided not to grill out and we went to Taco Bell and I had four crispy Tacos (two with low fat sour cream). It was good. Not normally a big Taco Bell fan, but hey the calories were where I needed them to be. My total for today is 1551 calories. I have had a hard time making 1500 so I set a target and I hard target. My goal is 1500 calories a day. 1600 is the number I will not go over no matter what. I call this my hard target. It's the wall! Except on Holidays where I will give myself 2500 Calories. By holidays I mean Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, and Possible my Birthday. I don't mean St. Patrick's day and Presidents day and all the other holidays the government takes off. I don't work for the government and neither does my stomach! I got the idea for Holiday calories from Sean Anderson  'The Diary of a Winning Loser". His blog inspired me to do this and I use his blog for support.

So now that we have the ground rules set in stone. Lets move on. After my meal I took another cue from Sean A. and I went for a walk with my wife and daughter. We went to Inniswood Gardens a beautiful metro park in Westerville, OH. As it was my first walk and it was raining I only walked .50 of a mile. It's a start. When We got there I was trying to figure out how I was going to know how far I had walked. So I My Fender My Touch (android) phone and searched for an app that would monitor my walk via GPS. Within seconds I had downloaded Endomondo this awesome program that allows me to track all kinds of sports via GPS and not only that it has GPS maps of my routes on the website where I can track it all. Best of all it is free!
Take that iPhone 4!!! Technology makes getting in shape fun! I can't wait to walk again.

Until Tomorrow,

Sean
