Weight
152.6 today
I bought a new bathroom scale last weekend, as I wanted a more accurate measurement.  My old scale only measured to the nearest half pound, while the new one measures to .2 lbs.  It's a Detecto brand that I found at Mennard's.

My weight sort of stalled again after I gave up nuts, sticking around 153/153 1/2.  I reviewed what I was eating, which isn't hard as I usually eat the same things every day.  I think it may be a twofold problem...one, not enough fat and two, butter.  So over the last couple of days, I've started adding a little more olive oil whenever I can, drizzling it onto my chicken and the veggies.  (I already use it on my salads for dressing.)  The butter...ah yes, the butter.  Butter is the only dairy I consume on a regular basis, using about a tablespoon in my scrambled eggs every morning.  It had never caused me problems in the past, at least it didn't seem to...but who knows?  So yesterday I started using olive oil for my eggs and, voila`, this morning I am down one pound.  Coincidence?  Combination of the two (higher fat/no butter)??  Hmm...
