Hello Pilates friends,
Turns out my little sprain is actually a fractured ankle. Ouch!

So after a huge plate of fries (kidding!) I decided to make the best of a discouraging situation. I’ve been faithfully tracking all of my food intake on Weight-Watchers On-line. It is a great tool for those of you who are trying to figure out where you are going wrong (or right). I’ve discovered 1 major habit of mine that is a “no-no”: I tend to eat most of my calories late in the day. And through measuring more carefully, I have also discovered I have been over-estimating my portions (by about 1/4). Interestingly, with careful tracking, and a few adjustments, the weight continues to move downward …
Will keep you posted,
