My eating was pretty good today and I really loved my dinner.  I could have honestly went without eating the chicken it was my least favorite thing on the plate.  I also bought an acorn squash and roasted it but it took longer than I thought it was going to so it wasn't ready to eat for dinner tonight.  I did taste alittle bite of it and it tasted alot like yellow squash.  I guess its paying off to try vegetables I've never eaten before because I'm adding new things to my list of healthy foods.

I"ve never done this before but I took a picture of my dinner tonight just so you could see how yummy it looked.

I might start doing this more often just to add some color to my food and exercise journal because its just kind of boring reading over what I ate and did today.

I've decided to take a break from my walking tonight but I will be back at it tomorrow.

Now for my goals that I set for the week:

1. Water- 51 oz.
