I am in a new puppy/no sl...

I am in a new puppy/no sleep stupor this morning. I was up so much with him last night, I did everything but breastfeed. And I am in love already. Thanks to all who assured me that even though they're work, they're worth it. Saturday is my weigh-in day. I only limit myself to once a week or I would attach the scale to the bottom of my feet; I can get so compulsive. Anyway, for all that I ate on my trip, and all the different food I ate, I have lost another 3 pounds. This is not good because I am already under goal. But I do find it interesting and evidence that my body is really needing more food with the type of daily workouts I am doing. I know it will level off. I just find it interesting that sometimes I am still so out of touch with my body, because I actually thoughts I put on weight. I have recovered from bulimia and anorexia in the past, so I know I am capable of doing pretty much anything unhealthy with food. That is not anything I want to experience again. So I will continue to eat for health and trust that my body is smart and will settle in. I guess I am surprised how many calories I can really take in. They are mostly healthy calories -- lots of protein. I am rambling, so sorry. No sleep!!! Off to horseback riding. Hope your feeling better Earl. Hope you had fun, Val and Earl, last night. Mike and Kristie, hope you have a great weekend. To everyone else, happy workout!! Hugs, Chris L.
