Dinner: Chicken paprika , rice, and broccoli with sour cream sauce. I made a few modifications to the recipe and actually got the whole plate down to 642 calories! The link is a new recipe.

And possibly some wine. And vodka.

And my walk/run on the treadmill, which still comes out to 2.4 miles outside and only 1.9 miles inside. I guess I need to pick up the pace inside!

Weight at beginning of the day: 115.2 lbs. Weight at the beginning of the next day: 113.8 lbs.

I knew my starting weight was high because of the beer the night before. But I really didn't expect it to drop thatmuch. Weird! I fully expect the next day to be 114.something since that seems to be the trend.
