Thanks for that reminder, Frosty. I went back and reread a bunch of your posts last night - very helpful since we're the same height & so close in weight and BF.

Last night I was in a bit of a funk and to console myself, I had about 200 extra calories of - yes! - dark chocolate. :-) I don't do that very often, but, oh well. So I ate 2406 yesterday. This morning, my weight is down .4 lb. So I'm going with "200 calories of chocolate = -.5 lb." Sounds legit, right?

Seriously, my average for the week was 2025, so close to my 2200 goal. I'm going to stick it out for a while longer.
