Trying really hard to keep myself motivated and not lose focus. Rather proud of myself yesterday--- iced grande triple mocha, one of Starbuck's new granola bars (200 calories, but they are pretty big), and a salad of romaine, cucumber, and baby carrots. A very little bit of Fat Free Wishbone Italian, could have used more, actually. Need to stop today and get more dressing, since this is nearly the end of it. More salad for dinner tonight--- cutting up the peppers. I really don't enjoy the iced mochas at Starbucks anymore, yesterday's was more out of desperation and necessity than anything. Common Ground's is amazing, in form and function. It's a shame that is so far from out here. Same with Donna's--- I think I'm just about there for a free drink with my stamps. Anyways, enough with the coffee related blethering. Trying to maintain today. Did get rather too tight last night, on account of not eating much it would seem (although I did eat some popcorn at the bar. I don't think that should make much of a difference.). Trying to determine when would be the best time to eat, early in the day or dinnertime. Dinnertime for having something on my stomach before going out, and I can usually hold out or not feel hungry till around then, or earlier in the day when I will burn more of it off. I just want to drop SOME of it at this point, if I could make some kind of headway and get back to where I was when I started putting it back on, if I could get back there, I'd be happy. I also kind of wonder about oatmeal, that's supposed to be really good for you.

I slept all evening till Nick came down. We went to Golden west first, since Scout was playing a show, but they got pushed back to be the headliner, and it would have been too late to wait around and see them, so we just hung out with everybody for a little bit, then went to Club Charles. Good time, didn't stop at Subway, which was good. We both fell asleep, Nick woke up around 4 and left, spoke to him this morning to be sure that he got home and got up. I guess we have to make earlier evenings, which is alright. I will be glad to see him later and go to Ottobar.
