Okay, it's time for me to start being honest to myself - and all of you about the use of my treadmill. I just got done with a 30 minute program that consisted of varying grades of incline up to 8% and varying speads up to 3.2 mph. According to the handy display I walked 1.4 miles and burned 205 calories in the process. It kicked my ass - but somehow I'm better for it. I'm cooling down as I type this and need to follow it up with some on the floor stretches.

My eating has been in check and I feel in control of food for the most part lately. I'm officially in the Hut and it really hasn't struck me with significant carb or sugar cravings.

I've also noticed (I am obsessed with the scale) that my weight seems to be fluctuating less as of late throughout the day. Previously I could see swings of up to 5 lbs throughout the day and now it seems to be settling down to about 1 lb.
