Saige fell asleep in the car eating potato waffle fries (friets).
She is a true Slabbekoorn!!!

During my weight loss I was looking for some App on the Appstore and found this one. Lose It.
This app can track all calories of your food intake but the nice thing of it is that you can set a goal based on your length and current weight and timeframe and it will calculate how much you need to loose per week.
So with one week left I almost reached my goals, since I started with this app I lost over 17 pounds.
Also nice is you can add exercise which counts negative towards your calories.
I am sometimes amazed on how much calories there is in certain foods i was taking. I basically cut out eating bread a lot and cheese (which is for this dutch guy very hard) and of course reduced my liquor intake by probably 90% With eating less I think we reduced our grocery bill by half on a month by month basis. Sometimes it is hard to keep track of everything especially in the weekends so I decided I can skip a day if I don’t feel like tracking everything. Most important is that I still loose weight.
With all that running going on and after Christy bought new running shoes last week I decided to buy some new ones myself today. So down to Boulder where they have a nice store. Boulder Running Company.
They look at your feet and tape you on the thread mill to figure out the best shoes. After testing about three different ones to replace my 5 years + old Asics I ended up buying Asics again. Now I need to put them to the test 😉
