It's Wednesday, Feb. 1, 2006. This morning, the scale told me that I weighed 165.8. Okay, that's fine. I can deal with that because it's a place to start. Well, it's another place to start. My other starting point in this round was 172.4 a few weeks ago.
So far this morning (it's 8:25) I've sipped on a cup of coffee made with
Splenda and about 45 calories worth of vanilla latte creamer.
I'm sorta, half-a$$ doing
Jenny Craig right now. It's the program/plan that I had so much luck on a couple of years ago. I say "sorta" because the thought of eating nothing but their food simply bores me. They have a couple of great meals, and a few that I can tolerate. But others just leave me staring into the freezer/fridge/pantry, hoping something yummy will jump out at me. So I'm supplementing their food with other healthy choices right now. All will be listed as the days and weeks go by heading for 145!!!
Cole and I have walked the last three days in a row. Three miles Sunday at the
Town Lake Hike and Bike Trail, two miles (one with Cole) Monday evening, and a mile yesterday evening. And of course, that doesn't count the walks with the dogs. I'm sure that burns a few calories, but stopping at every other blade of grass to sniff who was there last, isn't really vigorous exercise...

Okay, so that's 1320 for the day. Not bad. I'd love to stick around 1200, but I'm not gonna beat myself up for anything up to 1400.
