Right now, children come home from their first doctor's appointment with an extra bottle of formula.

But imagine if they came home with their first library card or their first copy of Goodnight Moon?

What if it was as easy to get a book as it is to rent a DVD or pick up McDonalds? What if instead of a toy in every Happy Meal, there was a book?

What if there were portable libraries that rolled through parks and playgrounds like ice cream trucks? Or kiosks in stores where you could borrow books?

Darn, up a tad this morning. Only by 0.2 of a kilo. Still, I know I'm going down in size as my clothes are getting looser.

I wonder if I'm retaining water/dehydrated today. I don't think I got all my water in yesterday and felt very thristy when I woke up this morning. I didn't even drink a lot of tea or coffee yesterday. I may try weighing again in couple of days.

I also have to keep better track of my vitamins. Sometimes I'm not sure if I've taken them!

I need to ensure I add up a final carb count for the day, to eliminate any carb creep. (Perhaps...

I had a good workout today. I did 2 laps around the track to warm up. Then I hit the treadmill for 25 min. Doing those laps always help me on the treadmill. I guess what they say about warming up is true!!

I sat in the sauna too. Oh how I miss topping off my workouts with that then a shower! I was in heaven. I felt like a baby and wanted to stick my thumb in my mouth!!

My menu sucked bad. I didn't eat enough food!

Menu
B: Eggs/sausage/coffee
L: handful of almonds
D: salad w/ ranch dressing chix wings

Some guys had to come to my house today (warranty) to fix something with the floor in the kitchen/dining room. They initially quoted 2 hours, total. They've been here since 8:00 this morning and it's already 1:00PM!!! They have to come back tomorrow and finish.. They're saying the problem was worse than they were told. Shoot, at least I'm not paying for it!!!! The only thing I can use in my kitchen right now is my microwave and espresso machine. (BUT... I can't use my espresso machine though because of my little experiment....see 'EVIL SPLENDA' blog.) GRRR

I guess I can have salad for breakfast and lunch and dinner. Awesome! :annoyed:...

Home scale said 166 this am.
I was not thrilled, but I actually think that TOM has something to do with it.

I think by Tuesday's official weigh in I should be at about 163 and that would be 4 lbs since the last official weigh in two weeks ago. That would put me at 2 lbs per week.

If I level out at 2 lbs per week for the next month it would be great. I know a stall will be coming, so racking up now will help me stay on track.

I don't have a plan for breaking my stall when it comes. I should be thinking about that. Maybe switching my exercise...
