"Today's UV Index should be a 9. The UGH Index will be a 10."

Walked the usual 3.3 miles today; DH took the doggies on a shortened stroll earlier. Very warm and humid, so I am more tired than usual after getting back. The dip in the pool helped some, but I'm still tired. May have to add some salt to the day's menu. That often helps with the tiredness on extra-hot days.

This has been a very good week on this WOE; unexpectedly so. I didn't start out with the intent to cut out sugar alcohols, but after a day or so without them by chance, I decided to keep it up. Perhaps, at this stage, I'm more sensitive to them, I don't know. Anyway, the SAs are back with the pancake syrup I had for breakfast today.

I've also started eating a bit lighter in the evening, again, not by design, but it has just turned out that way. If I needed some extra protein later in the day, I just had peanuts! Tonight will be different, in that we're grilling, so I may have a heavier dinner than I've been doing AND one of the meats will be brats. So between eating later, having more meat, and processed, at that, AND having SAs this AM, it will be interesting to see what the scale says tomorrow.

In the meantime, I've changed my motivational number on the bulletin board from "19" to "18."

163.0 lb Lost so far: 72.0 lb.    Still to go: 18.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
