I am finally finished with my training on my new job, so my weekdays are again my own. I got over to the storage unit and lugged all our holiday decorations home and today I started putting things up (and cleaning while I went.) No excuses, but I skipped the gym knowing that I would get my exercise going up and down the stepladder, hauling boxes around and moving furniture.

My weigh in at the gym on Sunday shows I am remaining steady at my 2 pounds a week weight loss. The next two weeks will be critical because I am going to do some baking. As I mentioned before, I am going to be making some biscotti to send to friends. I am also going to share that recipe on
Cammy's Potluck. It is such a cute idea - we all share our recipes in a post on our own site which is linked in to her potluck page!
My recipe is not a low cal recipe - it is very rich and yummy: Macadamia Nut Biscotti made with lots of butter and Myers rum. I found macadamia nuts at Trader Joe's so I am ready to bake - photos and recipe soon. Wish me massive amounts of willpower to get through this!!

2 lbs. a week is really great. Even if you don't keep it up at that level for the next 3 weeks, you'll be fine as long as you don't completely give up. You're success is impressive!
I love biscotti! How about mandel bread? Is that something you grew up with like I did?
Did someone say 'biscotti'? :)
I'm looking forward to your recipe! My eyes can taste it already.
Two pounds a week is FANTASTIC!
