Time marches on...

My weight is ALMOST back to pre-vacation weight (179.8), which is excellent. I am now back to tracking my calories. My target is 1200 calories a day. I am only at day two but I am going to try my best to stick to it. We have been eating alot of chicken and grilled veggies. I made some low fat/calorie cupcakes that were EXCELLENT! Take a box cake mix any flavor ( I chose spice) add one cup of unsweetened apple sauce. Bake according to directions. I made a dozen cupcakes ( I threw the rest of the batter away) to take to my daughters to dinner. I topped the cc with a tiny bit of prepared cream cheese frosting, topped with pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon. When I bake this again, I will make the cake instead but just sprinkle with a little bit of powdered sugar.

I spent the majority of last weekend watching all of the episodes of The United States of Tara. That show is excellent! The premise is wierd, she (Tara) has multiple personalities. The writing is excellent. The cast is brillant. I highly recommend that you give it a try.

Saturday night I have to fight the crowd in downtown St. Louis so that I can drop my daughters off at the Lady Gaga concert. Oh boy, that will be a hoot...

That's all for now.
