READ: CARBS ARE THE ENEMY!

Labor day weekend was a hellish stuff-fest. I had more potato chips over the three day weekend, than the entire 2003 so far combined. I nearly finished a quart of ice cream, all by my lonesome, and I didn't even go work out. The numbers on the scales rose by 6 lbs... I mean, I just went on the scale now. I usually go on in the morning, right after I pee, before the shower, when all my clothes are off. I was down 2-3 lbs from the peak weight, just three four days ago... Now I'm over. Maybe I'll lose it in the morning... I mean, I just had a hefty bowl of salad, and some watermelon... you know how much water is in that watermelon... water's real heavy... but you get it out of your system with one trip to the john. So I should weigh myself in the morning before I go into a full-blown panic attack. After all, I have school now, and will continue my work outs, and they will be more intense. I will burn more calories walking around campus, heavy backpack and all... I am hoping to lose about 20 lbs before the end of 2003. It will be really hard... but I think I can do it.
