Weigh-in

In my Friday post, I went a little crazy and actually said I was going to post my weight weekly (and my food journal, though that's not as embarrassing!), and I also said I'd do that on Mondays to keep me in check over the weekend.  This is all part of my quest to lose 10 pounds in 12 weeks (by June 8).

Grrrr.  Monday's already here.
