106 this morning, up 1/2 lb. Not too bad, but I know I've been eating too many carbs, so I feel your statement re. bread, Crankin. Barry made some excellent focaccia the other night, and I knew that I would gain if I ate it, but I did anyway. We did a 6-mile hot walk to and from town this morning (after my weigh-in), though, so perhaps I have now negated the bread. But I won't have any more.

Sorry Goldfinch. I know how that feels...and it sucks. I've been as high as 110 since moving down to Belize (after living in the 102-104 range for years prior to moving here), and it made me feel bad about myself. Clothes were tight, and I felt way too pudgy. When you're short and small-boned, it's amazing the difference just a few lbs. one way or the other can mean. Best of luck figuring out how to turn things around!
