Trying new things-some work, some don't

This past week was a week of trying some different things to see if they would work or not.  Mari's work schedule changed, so we decided to go out for dinner before our walk on Thursday, rather than my bringing dinner with me.  We also met up with Mari at lunch on Wednesday at a healthy place, which was nice, but I need to remember to order salads.  Friday, I went out with some friends for dinner and Saturday, I was in a class all day and we went out for lunch.  Some choices, while eating out were good and others were not so good. Overall, my weight went up .4 pound, which I am ok with.  This week will be more of eating either at home or from home.

My exercise was good and I stuck with schedule and yesterday(Sunday), I tried something new and I felt I did well.  Coming down the hill, I was slow and did not have the confidence others had, but going up, I did good.   I will keep doing these hikes, so I can gain more confidence.
