The "eww, get this off my tongue" award
The award goes to the big blob of bland that is "Health Valley Fat Free Black Bean & Vegetable Soup".
Does "bland" have a taste? It sure seemed to. I couldn't get the tast of bland off of my tongue.

Green Shirt Guy
Sometimes, when I work out on the elliptical machine, I keep it interesting by picking a runner to use as a timer. Today I would "sprint" for the amount of time it took green shirt guy to run one lap around the gym. This is a good way to keep my mind off of the time. Since I can only see half the gym from my machine, it adds some suspense. The only problem is: what if green shirt guy decides to go home? I would be hanging on for dear life. "Come on, green shirt guy! You're killing me."
The last "sprint" today was loooong. Green shirt guy decided to start walking to cool down. I just about went crazy, but I felt good afterwards.

not a great week for me:
I actually gained .06% this week, but I am still down 2.56% from the beginning. I have some catching up to do.

A review of bodybugg:

It is way too expensive for me, but it sounds interesting.

Healthy Eating
It seems that this time of year everyone wants to eat healthy.
The dogs got into the oatmeal yesterday and skipped the high-fat crackers.
They started with the regular pasta. I think that they stopped when they realized that it wasn't whole wheat.
