About 2500 calories- logging becomes difficult when you are tasting new partially fermented wine! We hung out with a winemaker friend and tasted in his warehouse- a total blast. Then we had some folks over for dinner, so it was a pretty long day. We'll see what it does to my weight Monday morning :o.

Got in a workout at the hospital gym. I finally feel like I'm getting my speed back-just in time for the off season . I've been eating better, which is probably helping. Along with working out consistently (amazing how that helps!).

To the lake this weekend- I'm planning on bringing my bike and trainer with me so I can ride there tomorrow (looks like Sunday's the better day for a long run outdoors).

Wednesday - November 3

No workout, 1987 calories. We have a visiting speaker in town so I was shepherding him all day, and a group went out to dinner. I'm happy to keep my calories under 2000 (it was a very good, fancy dinner!).
