Jan. 31, 2012: Off to a Clean Start!

My Tuesday morning started out great!  I was able to get in a brisk 15 minute walk this morning before work.  The AM fog had not yet lifted and it was a really neat time to go for a walk.  I wished I could have gotten more time in, but it was 15 min more than I usually do in the morning.  My morning scale weight was 211.2, so I'm guessing there is about a 3 lb difference between my scale and the one at the gym (with the gym's scale weighing lighter, surprisingly).

It wasn't as difficult as I had anticipated switching back into healthy eating habits.  Breakfast consisted of natural oatmeal & raisins.  Lunch: Chicken salad.  Snacks: Orange & apple.  Dinner: Salmon and roasted broccoli & sweet potato.  Evening drink: Aveda herbal tea.  A coworker talked about having a glass of wine after the long work day.  That sounded tempting, but I opted for the tea.  I am holding off on the wine for poker night.  ;>)

As I am also trying to get into healthier sleep patterns, I am going to make this blog entry short tonight so that I can get to bed before midnight.  I feel really good about starting this plan.  Thanks for all the supportive comments both on & off this blog!
