First Day of Summer:)

Today was suppose to be the official first day of summer vacation for son, yet, it didn't feel like it. Dear son volunteered his services at the school, (all day) to help some of the teachers pack up books, wash the preschool toys, clean up, etc.

Is there no end to this boy's generosity? I'm just kidding, I suspect that not only is he a generous soul, but he has the added bonus of being around a certain crush, LOL! He's going back tomorrow! :)

I've made an interesting observation today. For the past 2 weeks, I've actually had trouble eating enough calories, can you believe that?  Well, ever since yesterday, when I ate the two 100 calorie Hostess cakes with the ice cream cup, I have an appetite again. The type bordering on dangerous.
It's amazing what sweets does to my body. After 39 days of no sweets, it didn't even taste as good as I thought it would.

I'm going to "try" to skip the little cakes on my son's birthday next week. I've been doing too well to let sweets defeat me again.

Now that the graduation is over, I'm upping my calories a bit, I'm not in any hurry to lose this weight now, and I feel that slow is the best way to lose it and keep it off. I'll be eating more normal meals now, beans, whole grain pasta and rice.

I did my upper body workout, but didn't walk. It was too hot, as I write this, it's 86 degrees. I'll have to do it early in the morning tomorrow.

Well, that's about it for tonight. I will write my total calories in a little while. I'm off to do the dishes.

Total calories for the day: 1,335.
