Exercise - 1hr total bike ride to psychiatrist and back
               5 minutes of practice rollerblading to friends house
               light house cleaning at friends house

Total calories for the day - 1255

My bike ride was right before dinner and I found that it spoiled my appetite
so dinner was hard to choose.  I was also pretty tired which is probably why
I snacked through dinner prep.  I didn't enjoy the pizza and will probably
toss the rest if no one else plans to eat it.  I'm missing some veggies in
hindsight I could have added cucumbers to my dinner and omitted 1 or 2
slices.  Once again I had the evening snack to bring up my calories.

I tried rollerblading.  Stopping was a big issue for me!

"How do you stop this crazy thing?!"

If it's anything like on ice skating there are several ways to stop -
the easiest is to point your toes towards one another.

<VBG>  Falling down works too.

That's what I was doing when I was learning to skii - I'd just threw myself
on the ground and yell for someone to come pick me up :-)
(Mind you, I *was* only 6 yo ;-)

BTDT - head for the curb, throw myself in the grass.  That thing they
call the brake on the back is worthless on pavement.  Might be better
indoors.

I tried that.  I seem to still move even though I seemed to have stopped.
It also doesn't seem to work downhill.  Ohhhhh how I'd kill for a pick :D

It's not like ice skating when it comes to stopping. Rollerblades have
brakes on the *back* of the blade as opposed to the front on ice skates, so
using the toes may tend to cause the blader to lose control.  It's much like
the difference between downhill skiing and XC skiing.  If you shift your
weight and sit back on XC skis to slow down as you would with alpine, you're
going to lose your balance and fall backward.

Er, one should not use one's toe-rake as a brake!  I think you'll find
the better skaters don't do it, but stop the way the hockey-players do,
or else use a "T-stop" or even a "Show stop".

That is a major hurdle for me too :)  My biggest thing, since I'm used to
roller skates and ice skates is not to push off with my toe (like when I
want to go uphill!)

CORRECTION: the carb count is 40 grams - I forgot to count in the heel of
black bread I had with mushrooms...
