My gym sucks!

Today was a good day! I ate pretty well, even thought my stomach is STILL bothering me, but I managed to get through the day. I had one of the steam fresh meals for dinner and I'm sad to say it wasn't very good. But I'll keep my hopes up for the next one I try, sometimes it just depends. But other then that I had a good day eating wise.

I went for my walk on my break today, it was pretty windy but I managed to get through it and I am planning on adding another lap tomorrow and from now on. I will keep adding laps one a time when I feel comfortable, but 3 laps for me is really quick now.

I packed my gym bag last night and changed before I left work, drove straight there and was annoyed before I parked my car. There was NO parking and when I did find a spot, like a mile away there were NO and I mean NO open machines at all....people were just standing around. I decided to just stretch and try to jump on a treadmill when one opened up, luckily that was soon and that's when I was rushed by an older lady telling me she was next on this machine and that I had to wait my turn.

F*** that!!! Excuse me, I have to wait my turn at a gym!? I turned right around and left, it was more then slightly ridiculous, I mean people were seriously just STANDING there waiting for someone to be done their workout. Even if I had managed to get a machine I would have felt SO rushed, and would have felt like EVERYONE was watching me waiting for me to be done. Needless to say I am looking for a new gym ASAP, I've been considering switching gyms because this one doesn't offer classes, so now I am definitely going to switch.

I spent a lot of time last night browsing through an Italian restaurant menu that I am eating at tomorrow night to try and find something healthy. I am meeting an old friend there, it's a place we use to go to ALL the time. When I did I would get chicken fingers and cheese fries, or pizza and cheese fries or a cheese steak and cheese fries. Everything on the menu is covered in thick sauces, cheese or fried. Not really what I'm looking forward to, which I should have thought about before I agreed to eat there. I'm thinking of doing a small house salad with grilled shrimp (grilled with no butter or oil) and a soup? Any suggestions on how to eat healthy at places like those are greatly appreciated!

Tonight's picture is something I eat multiple times a week.. sweet potato!! I've made fries out of them, mashed potatoes and baked. I like to take one for work and add a little butter and cinnamon, so yummy!!
