Weight is still at 234, but making thru a weekend and not gaining weight is an accomplishment... so I am feeling good.

Didn't get much exercise done over the weekend... but did get alot of steps on my pedometer. (I wear it all day to calculate steps that day) Today I am over 12,000... so thats a good thing.

I did a 20 min bike workout today.

Breakfast: a low carb shake
Lunch: low carb chicken nuggets and 1/2 a low carb bar.
Snack: the other 1/2 low carb bar and a couple of macadamea nuts
