MALL WALKING EXERCISE

1.   After you have purchased your food counter book and your gluten-free survival guide you can start looking into what you want to eat.  Make it simple in the beginning.  I don't want you getting frustrated at the start of your program.


2.  Get your 5 x 8 thick spiral (you will use a new page each day).  Start logging in the date, time to eat, portion qty, food item.


3.  Exercise/Mall Walking.  (1) Make sure you have your protein shake before you exercise.  You get your pedometer ready so that your steps can be converted into miles.  Make sure you have good sturdy tennies for walking or for whatever exercise you choose to do.  By going to a sports store they will point you in the right direction based on the type of exercise you will be doing. 


4.  Arrowhead Mall doors are open for walkers from 6:00 am - 11:00 pm, 7 days a week.  If you go to the mall before the stores open you will find plenty of parking spaces close to the doors.  (If you get a buddy to do the same things you are doing that could be your chat time or catch up time with each other.)


5.  Just above the bottom of the page write down your mall walking pedometer number and convert it into mileage.


6.  Make sure you take a water bottle with you.  Drink water as you go along.  There is a restroom in the Arrowhead Mall on the second floor by the food court.


7.  You must eat something every 2-3 hours 4 to 6 times a day. 


8.  At the end of the day count up your calories and the quantities you have eaten.


9.  Take your measurement once a week:  Hips, thighs, top of arm, top of leg,
weight.  Make sure you have a good scale.  Our scale was so old is was off by several pounds.


Let me know how this works out.
