Day 92

No gym today, but a lot of anxiety, brought on by the end of a long weekend. Again, lack of planning can lead to some unorthodox, and even un-SoBe like food choices, but I think I came out OK in the end. Since the sun couldn't make up its mind about what it wanted to do, Ruby and I alternatively went out and stayed in, and got wet. I was hoping we would ride a lot of bikes, but alas that didn't get happen, though I did push her 55lbs around the block in the new baby-jogger we got (it was a hand-me-down). I took her to millennium park in Dedham and we ran around there for a while, but it wasn't quite the workout I was hoping for, especially considering I've been on a nut-bender for the whole of Memorial Day weekend.

Breakfast
1 Multi-grain English Muffin
3 Tsps of Peanut Butter (more evidence that nuts are out of control)
Tea

Snack
1/2 Granny Smith Apple
2 Cheese Sticks
1/2 cup of unsalted nut mix (from Whole Foods, which does not contain peanuts)
1 Joy Stick (0 net carbs)

Lunch
Greek Salad with Chicken

Mezzo Snack
6 oz. Vanilla Yoplait "lite" yogurt
1 cup Strawberries
1/16th cup Grape Nuts (which are neither, discuss)

Dinner
Soy Chicken (was meant for the grill, but we didn't get it out)
Broccoli

Will be seeing my old pal "Detecto" tomorrow in the AM. Have been thinking alot, especially at the gym, about what people have been saying about not losing weight or even gaining weight as you lose muscle. Another part of the SoBe is to return carbs to your diet—until you get to the point, which is when you are not losing—or gasp—gaining weight. So if the news is not good, I know I will have cut back on some of the stuff that's out there and possibly return to my Phase One ways.

As always, your guess is as good as mine.

WISHING YOU GOOD LUCK IN YOUR ENCOUNTER WITH DETECTO. You still sound pretty good to me as you have successfully negotiated the choppy waters of a long, not so perfect (weather wise) early summer weekend. Love, MOM
