It's the weekend, things are usually slow. Maybe they will slow down in the summer?! Probably. Those who are posting are doing really well.
I ate leftover pizza last night, something that is not usually in my house so I am reinforced as to what tasty temptation means to me.
Today I have a grad banquet, Thurs is graduation. Lots of opportunity for poor choices and little time for cardio.
Ian can you swim? I normally swim in the summer, good exercise, cools you off. I have to get up early (by 6am) to do it but it is worth it.

OK here goes
calories: M-723 T-981 W-816 T-902 F-1069 S-1000 S-840
water: yes,yes,yes,yes,yes, yes, yes
exercise: 1.43k 2k 0k 2k 0k 2k 0k
The scale is not co-operating and it's making me mad. I could have made some better choices for food today, French onion soup, and Fathers Day cake.
Supper was a red pepper and a hard boiled egg.

Libby: 840 cals doesn't look like you are making poor choices. French onion soup isn't so bad. Not as bad as cake, anyway (which is what I had for breakfast ;-)
Epix, Robin: Love that blue on you both!
Renewed: If there's any upside to feeling bad, it's that I usually lose my appetite.
ian: I normally rate a -2 on the A to K scale. Maybe zero on a good day.

Hi everyone. I have been reading posts but haven't been posting myself due to ear infection. Had terrible pain on the weekend and ringing in the ears but thankfully it seems a bit better today.
Weighed myself yesterday and I'm down a pound and a half. Haven't felt like eating much. I'm still about 70 lbs from where I would like to be.
