		<description><![CDATA[Not sure if I've finally gotten past the plateau, but I feel good. I need to be more disciplined about journalling. Over the past two weeks I've just given up at the end of the week. It's not that I haven't thought about everything I've eaten, but I'm eating a lot of junk food that weight loss or not, needs to be cut out of my diet. Man cannot live on strawberry shortcake. Well, he could, but he probably shouldn't.]]></description>

And silly me for thinking I had it all figured out when it came to breastfeeding. Sophie&#8217;s fourteen months old and not showing many signs of letting up. Honestly, I thought she&#8217;d [...]]]></description>

It was my highest mileage week to date (21 miles over four days) and also the highest calorie-wise. I blame the graham crackers. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[April 3, 2008 was the last day I wore this suit, and not comfortably. It fits. Nicely. I never thought I'd get back into this suit. Okay, maybe not never, but I feared it might be eaten by moths by the time it happened. the same moths, by the way,  who have been munching on a few of my J.Crew cashmere sweaters. Let's just say I'm not feeling very charitable toward bugs at the moment.

It turned out I needed to lose 14 pounds. That's it! Why didn't I do this sooner?

		<description><![CDATA[I'm a little giddy this morning. I stepped on the scale twice, because I couldn't believe it was telling the truth. I'm not surprised as it's been in the 90s here for a few days, which is very atypical of U.P. weather. We don't have air conditioning, which means we get home, turn off the lights, keep the house closed and hunker down.
