Almost a Week Down - Progress Report!

Well, as you know, I did have a hiccup at the start of the week that taught me alot.
Having said that, I've done really well over the past few days - and I think the scales are showing a little improvement as well, which is always welcome! Tho not the purpose of the exercise.
Its really quite difficult to balance up all the different things, but I think with a bit of practice, it will get easier.  I have found myself eating the same sandwich every day at work for the past few days - I need to consider other options for lunches.  I would have had a few warm lunches, except I didn't end up making some of the things because they didn't follow the 'new' rules I created in the middle of the week.
Tonight I'm making a chicken, walnut and rocket salad - warmed chicken, warmed red capsicum, rocket, walnuts, ricotta, seeded mustard....I think it will be delicious! Am looking forward to making it.
Made a 'breakfast shake' earlier this week with rolled oats - it was OK, but the oats left kind of a claggy feel to the whole thing, so I'll look for a different base I think.  Was skim milk, strawberries, natural yoghurt and oats.
What I really need to do is find some time to do a little exercise - I need to commit to dancing (that will help!) and fix my bike tyre so I can go riding - which I really like to do, but am too slack to fix the tyre :-)
Am going to a girlfriend's place tonight for a gossip and a video - I think this will be the telling moment - can I resist her snacks and wine, and stick to my own healthy snacks and water?? Only time will tell....
Until next time, stay happy & healthy.
