Met my goal of losing 2-3 lbs. by Saturday by weighing in 2.6 lbs. down from Monday. Everything seems to be working and back on track, so I'm not going to change a thing. (Wish I could talk husband into eating cleaner, but he works really hard in the yard this time of year and never seems to gain weight, no matter what he eats.) At 6'4", there's a lot of places to hide an extra few pounds; not like on my wimpy 5'5" frame.
Anyway, it's nearly 90* and breezy and I'm off to take a beautiful hike in the cool woods.
Enjoy your day!
