Exercise:
Ran 2 miles without stopping - 22 minutes. Than, ran/walked another 10 minutes, so I ended up doing nearly 3 miles total.
I was hurting and breathing hard after that hard 30 minutes, when my heart rate was at 160 for most of it. I almost gave up, but I didn't. I lifted weights for another 30 minutes - doing arms, deadlifts, and shoulders. It felt good and I gained some mojo by the end. I ended with 10 minutes of easy cardio on the elliptical.
Here's what I ate:
Breakfast: 2 servings of Honey Flax Seed Crunch Cereal
Lunch: Salmon Burger, Fake Bacon, Big Iceburg Lettuce salad
Dinner and snacks after: (Euchre night at my house) 3 pieces of mushroom pizza, 4 pierogi, several servings of Crystal Lemonade and "the big V".
The latter half of the day, eating wise, wasn't so hot. But I didn't eat much beforehand, and stayed away from beer on my party night. That's not too bad, I hope.

Epiph, have you ever heard of the Daily Plate at Livestrong.com? You can create a profile and list everything you've eaten throughout the day (even down to the exact time), and it automatically calculates the calories for you. You can search for restaurant foods and national or generic store brands (even Trader Joe's!); you name it, it's in there. It's really helpful, and it makes it so easy to keep track of everything. You can even add your exercises and your weight loss goals.
Sparkpeople.com also has a similar program for food and exercise tracking, but Im thinking that even if you don't or can't commit the full time to entering values in on the sites, you can get the values (ie, calories and calories burned). It's great to have these online options available! Keep up the good work!
sparkpeople also has the added benefit of creating your own page that allows you to interact with others. The best part was using their recipe creator to find out how many calories were actually in the item you created- not sure how much you are cooking. The only downside to sparkpeople is that its a bit ad heavy.
Fitday is another cool site, no bells or whistles but allows you to track your calories and exercise. They have many food items already saved in their database and will allow you to customize your own.
I think that both sites have the option to make a portion of it public if you still wanted to share on this site. I've used both at one time or another.
