I finally stopped by the Health Center today and got on the scales. 176 on the nose. Looking back on the blogs, it seems like the last time I weighed in the Health Center I was at 174.5, so I've only gained 1.5 pounds. That's pretty exciting, actually. You have no idea how far off the wagon I have fallen. Like, I fell off, and the wagon is now about a mile ahead of me. But I've gotten up and have started walking toward the wagon again. I'm not sure how long it'll take me to actually catch up to the wagon and hop on, but I'd venture to guess it'll be at least three weeks. We're closing the halls this week, and over the next two and a half weeks I have four campus interviews scheduled. Stress and more stress, and travel never equals good eating.

I didn't tell you either that I couldn't take my stupid scales back. I lost the receipt and I paid cash for it, and Target won't take stuff back without a receipt if it's over $20. I think I paid $29. Grr. But maybe once I get someplace with a hard level floor it'll work. If not, it'll be a good yard sale item for Dad.
