Okay, so here I go...

Okay - weighed in this morning at 153.3. Not bad, but higher than I would like it to be, so I am joining forces with these two fine ladies to try and seriously do something about it.

My breakfast today (typically the same every day):

• homemade chai - spices, a little honey, black tea, and 1 c. unsweetened soy milk
• whole grain mini bagel with 1 oz. lox and neufachtel cheese
• cantaloupe and strawberries

My walk this morning was very nice - I think that autumn leaves were meant to be seen in the light of a rose and salmon-colored sunrise... beautiful! Bailey (the best motivation ever for walking every day) and I went 3.5 miles in about 45 minutes in the park. It's a pretty decent workout, by most normal people's standards (never you mind silly joggers and workout freaks of the world).

My lunch today (typically the same, with minor variations, every day):

• carrotts
• celery
• cucumber
• applesauce cup
• pear
• 15 pumpernickle (sp?) sticks

I was bad and had a Starbuck's chai (with soy milk) for a snack this morning. Afternoon snack was a handful of trail mix with cashews, little chocolate chips, sundrops and raisins. I haven't been very good about water lately, but I *always* feel better when I am... so, I'd better get drinking!

By the way - someone needs to invent some kind of nose plug that eliminates the smell of a freshly-popped bag of popcorn in offices! Grrr....
