    I weighed in today and now after losing 2.8 pounds after vacation I am up again.
    This is a never ending cycle lately. I hope when the weather breaks I can get down
    and dirty and lose again. :bigsmile:

    Well friends, when I got on the scale on Monday I was really depressed. I have been in
    a weigh in challenge here since January, and I was back to the beginning weight.
    So I made a change, I lowered my calorie count from 1495 to 1400. Maybe this will
    keep me more accountable. I found if I had all these extra calories at the end of day
    I would eat at night because I thought I could , not so.
    So I hope to see some results this week. Thanks for listening.
