Walking and food

So, my husband and I are finally off on the same day. So we decided to walk to block buster and rent a movie for tonight, and on the way home buy our groceries for the week.

All in all it took us 2 hours, and it was just over 3 miles (would've been a lot less, but the shopping took a while). Man, I feel good!

I also want to say, since starting this diet we spend SO MUCH LESS ON FOOD! We used to spend about $90 a week on groceries, not to mention eating out (fast food or dinning) every day. Now, we don't eat out more then once every 2 weeks or so and we only spend $50 a week on food! Wow!

    Good for you!

    Just a piece of advice... Now try to do more things together, like going to the park and walk for half an hour, take a stroll on a Sunday afternoon, and you'll see how you´ll get used to exercising and spending more time together (and you'll both shed some pounds.)

    Have fun!

    I have also noticed we've been spending less on groceries :bigsmile:
