I had a pretty good week. We didn't get to the store until Monday night so I had to buy breakfast and lunch. I spent Monday night chopping fruit (pineapple, mango, strawberries and kiwi) and vegetables (red pepper, yellow pepper, mushrooms). That made it easier to pack the rest of the week. Packing made it easy to stay within my calorie range for the week. Today I packed breakfast, and bought lunch. The cafeteria had a cook-out today with some really tasty and healthy choices. I had a chicken/veggie kabob, corn on the cob and grilled asparagus. The only other thing I would have liked was some fruit salad. They were also offering grilled salmon, bison burgers, some sort of cheesy potato dish, brown rice and potato chips. I'm pretty pleased with my choices, the lunch was under 400 calories and was very satisfying.
I'm still not exercising as much as I should. I think it is going to be a constant challenge for me. My birthday was a week or so ago and I used gift-cards to order the last few things I wanted for the home-gym. I'm all set, it just comes down to motivation now. I'm going to set a goal to exercise once this weekend (it'll have to be Sunday since I'll be fishing tomorrow) and 3x next week, 2 of those times will be strength training.

All it takes is patience and work.
