Things I have learned today: I cannot run 5km at 7.30 at night. It is just too late. Especially on a day when I've got up before 5am, flown to Auckland and spent much of the time training a new staff member.
So I gave up after 5 minutes running and just walked for half an hour. Hard. Still worked up quite a sweat.
Haven't had a great day with eating - succumbed to a chocolate hit this afternoon. And a Burger Fuel burger tonight (threw away the top half of the bun, though). I'm not too worried about it - it's not like it's a daily lapse.
11 April summary
Breakfast: muesli, yoghurt and bran
Lunch: salmon, potato and egg salad
Dinner: burger with bacon and avocado
Snacks: juice blend from Tank, trim flat white, 60 grams bittersweet chocolate
Exercise: 30 minutes on the treadmill

I'm glad to see that you are so sensible. You have made it, you are a normal person existing in the normal sized world being able to behave normally under tired stressed conditions and have a burger but not over do it. You are my hero for the week.
Wow, I don't know how you got the energy to even think about a run - hehe. Even the thought of going for a walk or run next week makes me feel tired, lol.
I used to use Blogroll Sue but since I changed to new blogger couldn't figure how to put it in my blog. And I found that it had stopped showing me when people had updated for some reason. Thanks for the comment and i am feeling quite good about the slow but sure road to a lighter me.
Good on you for even trying to go for a run at 7.30pm.....LOL
I have had Burger Fuel twice and it is devine and with all the work (eating and exercising) your doing, you deserve a little lapse now and then (ie chocolate).
Enjoy the rest of your week.
Hope it tasted yummmmm, I had one the other night too (burger), first one this year and it was lovley!
You do have to know you've changed your lifestyle when you are running/walking at that time of night and then throwing away the top of the burger bun!
Thanks for your encouraging words on my blog.
I'm amazed you would even consider running at 7:30pm when you've been up so early and flying to boot! Surely that counts among superhero tasks? Well done for walking rather than giving up and sitting on the couch!
