I've been doing my WOE which is working for me for 30 days now. :) Hardly seems like it has been that long, so I must be pretty satisfied with what I'm doing - the time ans weight is just flying away. :) I'm doing a low-crap diet with a calorie target of around 1800. Somedays

I am thinking of getting a BMI scale but there are so many choices out there. Can anybody recommend a good brand? I leave the determination of "good" to your value system. SweetVenom Bob

Well, we finally got internet service at our new home/town and I can post to the group again. Unfortunately, I have a 5 pound gain to report. I'm really surprised that it's not *more* than 5 pounds with all the bad restaurant meals and the junk food I ate during the delay in ...

| work stash suggestions... | 17 Aug 2004 18:09 GMT | 52 |
Last week I ran into a friend at Whole Foods while I was reading the labels on the cups of soup. I was looking for a lower sodium version to keep at my desk. Soup does not tempt me and I like to have a few things at my desk that I will not want to break into for days that I am ...

| a slight Food & Exercise addendum | 17 Aug 2004 14:58 GMT | 18 |
Just decided to do a set of pushups to see if I could exceed my previous PR of 18 reps -- did 20 :-). This is guy-style, from the toes -- not too bad for a 56-year-old lady, I think. Chris

| Down 2 pounds | 17 Aug 2004 14:00 GMT | 23 |
Well, it seems I've lost two pounds in the past week, despite eating rather carelessly (not excessive calories, but more sugar and fat than usual) and exercising less. Today I weighed in at 141. I'm feeling a little conflicted about whether to change my goal range (145-150).

It's working.... I'm keeping my calorie intake to an average of 1600-1800/day and getting some exercise. I haven't settled into a routine yet but it's only my first week so I'm trying not to overdue it. I feel better already and the scale is showing a loss although

| work social tomorrow | 17 Aug 2004 01:40 GMT | 21 |
I've been doing really well on my low-crap diet and I wanted to get some ideas for tomorrow. My workplace is having an ice cream social - right on the table next to my cubical. I was thinking that I could participate too with a little preparation. I thought I could bring my own ...

| More Bally stuff | 16 Aug 2004 23:14 GMT | 10 |
Stopped in after work today. As usual (?) I started out on the treadmill, a mile and a half including the cool down. Then tried a couple of the machines that I used before. Still have to work out the amount of weight I put on. I also tried a couple of ones that I hadn't before. It's ...

| crab meat (fake) | 16 Aug 2004 20:00 GMT | 10 |
I have a package of fake crab meat. What should I do with it? I'm sure I can chop it up and throw in some celery and onion and a bit of mayo and make a salad with it ... but I'm looking for something a little different, yet healthy. Any ideas?
