Sorry I have been missing on here. I started a new job (only for 2 weeks) and am not finished with my current one which is ending Monday. So I also need to look for more summer employment on top of that. I didn't put down my daily plan for exercise. I have to switch from morning exercise routine to an afternoon one since I now work mornings. Since I went to 2 aquafit classes that leaves a hole. Maybe I will run more or start weight training.

Slow and steady wins the race. You are doing great!! Don't get discouraged and whatever you do don't stop doing what you are doing. The first few pounds was probably water weight... keep going!
I just peeked at your diary. It could be too few calories and some high sodium days slowing it down.0 -
