I like listening to audiobooks or podcasts while walking/biking, and sometimes running, but mostly I prefer music for running. Actually can you get a bike? That might not be a bad way to expand your exercise horizons for not too much money.
I do want one, but I think I will try to wait until I come back after working this spring. The one I want is a little more expensive than we should afford right now.
I can understand that. I have forbidden myself from buying another iPod right now too. Mine is going on 10 years old and doesn't want to hold a charge for more than an hour of playtime. But I have a shuffle too (that's just a pain to use) and I anticipate getting iPhones by the end of this year, so I keep telling myself I can make do until then.
I was talking about the bike.
Foodwise I tend to get into ruts but I don't mind. I have a breakfast and a lunch that I like and fit my dietary preferences/requirements and are pragmatic for taking to work each day. That's my go-to most of the time, and I try to mix it up at least once a week to give myself something to look forward to and keep me from getting too rebellious 
And I try to keep elements of it fresh, so I might try a different kind of salad dressing each week for my lunch salads, or get a vegetable I don't usually include (like this week radishes looked really good at the store so those are a new addition).
And I try to keep elements of it fresh, so I might try a different kind of salad dressing each week for my lunch salads, or get a vegetable I don't usually include (like this week radishes looked really good at the store so those are a new addition).I get into ruts too, because I'll have certain things in the house that aren't easy to serve up in different ways (hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, etc), but I am also getting better at mixing it up. I buy all sorts of different nuts and things, and I like looking for new dressings.
I have a homemade ceasar dressing recipe that I am just obsessed with right now. IT'S SO GOOD. I guess I should share that
It sounds awesome, but John will kill me if I make a dressing with fish in it.
Still doing well on the diet. Mostly.

I fell off the diet wagon with the stress of moving and lack of healthy foodstuffs

It's more expensive and it's so much more work.

the math is simple, but doing more than just calorie balancing helps increase your sucess

I usually need my iPod to distract me on walks/runs, if I don't have another person there.
