How to manage a hectic schedule? plus Weigh In!

So! Yesterday started off great, but kinda went downhill. I had my delicious breakfast creme in the morning, which I got fromMireille Guiliano, the french woman who doesn't get fat. It's a half cup of greek yogurt (I use 2% Fage), 6 mini squares of shredded wheat, crumbled, 1/4 ounce of chopped nuts (this morning was hazelnuts . . . mm), 1 tsp of honey, and 1 tbsp of lemon juice. Soo good! Merci, Mireille.

I haven't had time this week to cook, so I was still cobbling together lunches out of the random things I bought at the grocery store. It wasn't a bad lunch, though. Then there were free pita wraps leftover from some lunch. I had forgotten to bring something to eat before my night class, and it looked not bad for me, so I took one. Then looked at the points. Ugh! Free food is always my undoing. 

After night class, I got home and ate a few "small" things. I do love that bread though, y'all. And it's good for me, so I don't feel bad eating it.

I worked some more today in the garden! I planted some peas, spinach, and lettuces. I hope no birds eat the seeds this weekend while I'm out of town :-/. I need to go shopping for wire mesh to keep them out.

Oh yeah! I weighed in this morning- down 1.2 lbs! Yaay!

This weekend I'm going with a group of friends on a "retreat" for a school project. I'm not in their group, I'm going as the chef :-). So it should be fun, but with a bunch of snacks lying around, a little tempting. I'll bring my running shoes so I can get some activitiy in. I'm really looking forward to it, it's at a friend's lake cabin in Maryland and the views are just amazing.

Next week I've got to make time to cook something and plan out what I'm going to eat a little more so I'm not throwing things together at the last minute.

How do you manage your hectic schedule?
