Weight will now be in the title daily till I get sick of it, as it stands right now I am .2 more then posted weigh in on 11-3....very sad that I haven't lost anything in 17 days.
Did 20 minutes on the track no running, arms and back, and 17 minutes elliptical HIIT. (500) calories burnt and eating was good no more then 1,400 calories.
This week going to be hard with the Holiday, but will still weigh in. Gotta get back to using Calorie King, right now I just keep track in my head.
Started back on the psyllium husks seed powder, tummy is grumbling. Maybe I'll re-think it. I take 1 T in water with cinnamon.
That's it for now..be back tomorrow.

I've decided to start weighing everyday and recording it so I can see what's going on, my loss is soooo slow. Something has gotta give. I'll just add it to the post title: And hope it goes down ever so slightly everyday.
Today at the gym I did: legs , core and 25 minutes on the track no running.
I need to start getting the gym earlier, I say that everyday but don't follow through. If I had to guess I would say I weigh more then my posted monthly weight and I know I am not over eating my calorie limit so much that I could gain. My caloric limit is 1,624. Plus I burn at least 300 at the gym daily. Today I got just over 1,200 calories.
Went to the grocery for yogurt (Activia light), when I got home I realised I bought 3 4 packs of regular Activia...damn. It's 70 calories versus 110, but I can't waste the money, so I will just have to account for it in my caloric budget till they are gone.
That's it for now, I need to finish my exercise tables in the bottom page element.
I have a few days off this week and can work on it.
Thanks Barb and Rie for your recent remarks , I truly appreciate it!
