    2/4/13 ... 156.5
    3/4/13 ... 154.0 Still sick. Bleh!!
    3/11/13 ... 156.0 Feeling mostly better. Exercising again. Too much take out food.
    4/1/13 ... 155.5 OK,I am done with my Easter Peeps. Weather improving.
    5/9/13 ... 153.0 Just back from STL.

    6/24/13 ... 153.5 I think I'm doing better with calories.
    7/1/13 ... 157.5 WHAT is going on with my body. I am not overeating!
    7/15/13 ... 156.0 Ate in restaurants 3times last week. Thanks Rob. Beer ordered every time, too. Fun, delicious, but not helpful.
    7/22/13 ... 158.0 HIGHEST WEIGHT SINCE POST-XMAS. AAAGH!How quickly it comes back.
    7/29/13 ... 156.5 I fear my 3FC experience has been one of maintaining, not losing.
