Two pints of Ice Cream

Last night I ate two pints of Breyer's ice cream, one chocolate, one mint chocolate chip. I knew it was bad when I bought them at the grocery store, but I told myself I would eat only half of one. Sadly that didn't happen (but not unexpectedly).

I just saw someone else's food eating blog, http://alliate.blogspot.com/, and I've decided to attempt to do it myself, starting today. Hopefully it will keep my a little more honest, and if I keep it up for a while, hopefully I can get my mom to do it as well. I'll also include my morning weight and exercise for the day.

I lost a lot of weight last year, and hopefully this will keep me semi-honest this year. I kinda of wish I started this last year so I could compare how I do this summer to my good results from last summer. I lost about 60 lbs last year, and am down from 345 since July 2004. I don't expect to duplicate those results, but if I could get to 245 by the end of the year, I'd be really happy.
