Went over to Curves. They did my measurements and weight, showed me how to use the circuit, and got my free week started. I think I really like it. I can get the student discount and go for $29 a month. Not to shabby. So thanks to Curves, I didn't / don't need to buy a measuring tape.

I can't remember if I mentioned before, but I loaded LiveStrong to the Iphone and have been tracking my food and exercise all day. Awesome app - and it was free.

Calories Consumed: 1,951

H2O: Not sure, a ton, something like 4 Shakespeare's cups so probably 6-8 8oz cups, 48-64oz, lets just say my pee is extremely pale - so good.

Also just got back from Wal-Mart. Bought lots of good food choices (and a few bad so I don't feel deprived - changing in steps here). I also bought a good multivitamin and calcium chews. Can't wait to see how they affect me - no sarcasm here, really. looking for improvements in hair, nails, skin, and over all feeling better.
