June Update

Uh, well, uhmmm. Still at 4 pounds. Lost that is. (Well, I found some of them, and then lost them again.)

Have not used my log at all. Have not exercised at all. It's hot again. Have been schlepping the DD to swim lessons and playdates. I blame the root beer floats. We had an end-of-the-school-year root beer float party for DD and her classmates. Not everybody came so we have ended up with a lot of root beer!

But actually, the eating is going pretty well. Once you get out of a habit (like having dessert every night or a piece of chocolate every 5 minutes), it's easier to not start again. Probably a bit of an addiction thing going on there. And it's nice and simple to remember "one whole grain/one fruit or veggie/one protein" with each meal.

Trying to drink lots of water, but face it, water is boring. I have enjoyed making ice tea every day (with a little agave nectar and soy milk it's a lot like a Thai iced tea) and using "fizzy water" plus a little juice to make a cheap natural fruit soda.

Maybe next week I'll get back on the courts. (When it's not 100 degrees.) Or I'll do some pool time.
