Some things I neglected to mention:

1. I had a serious calorie/blood sugar issue today. I had another shredder shake for breakfast, and I thought it would hold me over until I got out of class, but I think I burned more calories than expected during my study group or something. In any event, I was in total agony afterward, and I ended up feeling really faint, nauseous, irritable, and rundown by about 3:00pm. I tried to have a light lunch, since my hubby was going to be home from school within 2 hours (at which point I would be making dinner), but I was really dying by the time he got home. i still managed to make a healthy dinner, but I fricking gorged myself (and yet somehow still ended up within my RDI for today). I feel a little guilty about that though, because I didn't workout.. but I'm still somewhere at around 1400 calories, which i guess isn't half bad.

2. I had a doctor's appointment this morning, during which I had some tests done to see if I have a thyroid or blood sugar issue, which may offer some insight on why I have so much trouble dropping weight. I seriously almost NEVER eat the amount of calories it takes for me to live, yet I've held steady at 170lbs for the last two years or so, even when I worked out. I don't really get it.. But I should be getting the results back in a week or two.

3. Today, I bought one of those fancy scales that calculates your body fat percentage and stuff like that. I'm really looking forward to seeing my progress on there as well, since I normally don't regularly weigh myself, and I can't weigh myself naked at the gym, since it's at school (and that's just creepy). So, hopefully all these things combined will provide a rad arsenal that helps me blast all this extra weight off. I want my husband to feel proud to show people that I'm his wife.. he's a really good-looking guy (with a few extra pounds) who deserves to have a beautiful woman on his arm. I've gained 25lbs just since I've met him.. So it's kind of like an OMGWTF situation (for me, anyway). He insists that I'm beautiful no matter what. But I don't really buy it.
