Cassie, it looks like you're having a great week all around vey good on the calorie cap. I take it that mentally you're feeling much better this week. 
I'm glad that we're not going to have to have you committed to the nut hut. 
Keep up the great work.
Everyone else, I'm sorry that I haven't been commenting much or very active.
Next week will be a new week.

3. Sleep at least 7 hours per night. Yes, Yes, Yes, No, No (but close), Yes, plus an extra half hour, lol, Yes
4. 72 oz. water daily. Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes No...in court on the stand most of the morning and that's not conducive to potty breaks, but it's really no excuse), Yes, No
5. Exercise 6 times. Yes, Yes, Yes, No, Yes, Yes, Yes

Not a perfect week, but a durn sight better than it's been. I fought against snacking all night tonight, so I'm going to take my white knuckles and go to bed, and weigh in in the morning. Hope you all had a great weekend and am looking forward to seeing you all Monday morning to start the new week off right!
