I am pretty happy that I stuck to healthy food choices all week. I am following the meal-plan from Jillian Michael's Master Your Metabolism book. It's so easy to pick from the options she presents for each meal, and almost everything requires little preparation (and I did most of my prep last weekend).
I'm more worried about my eating over the weekend. I am married to a person who eats continuously on the weekends, be it junk or healthy or whatever. It's literally non-stop. I usually get up and have breakfast and then go back to sleep just so that I don't do any mindless snacking. If I sit in the front of the TV, I have the biggest cravings for popcorn. I bought the low-fat low-salt bag which is about 150 calories per half bag (I eat the whole bag so 300 calories). Otherwise, I am always reaching for stuff in the cupboards. I am also a huge fan of cereal and I could polish off a whole box in one day. Even though I choose healthy cereals now like Kashi or plain Cheerios, eating the whole box with milk adds a whole lot of calories I really don't need.
I'm going to have to make an effort to be active and go out for a walk/jog. It's supposed to be sunny on Saturday at least. I have to go pick up a prescription at the pharmacy, which is a 20 minute walk away. so And maybe on Sunday, I can convince the husband to walk to the grocery store, which is also a 20 minute walk.
