Diet/Exercise log - 3/10 - 3/17

I'm still in the Wendie trial period. I am neither encouraged nor discouraged by my fabulous no-loss last week, and ready to give this another go. However, I am decreasing the targets by two points per day. Nobody can snap back from 39 points on Saturday to 24 on Sunday. (Much like nobody can eat 50 eggs.) At least nobody in this room. I'm not sure that 37 to 22 is going to be any better, but we shall see.

UPDATE 3/11: Since I can't possibly remember what my targets are unless I write them down, here they are. I ate my super-high points yesterday (our friend Dale cooked steaks. If you had ever had Dale's steaks, you would understand), so some rearrangement was necessary. The adjusted plan is:

Note that I kept the 24-point low, partly due to Lori's comment. :) Next week I'll probably do the 37-24 plan.

Also, I'm thinking that I might just try to make it to 5 workout days this week. What the hell, there's a first time for everything.
