Sunday on the Scale and Zucchini Love

Ah, the unpredictable, mysterious enigma known as weight loss.  Or attempted weight loss.  I don't understand how I can spend all week WELL BELOW my calorie goal and still gain a pound.  Really there is no reasonable explanation.  Obviously there is more to it than just calories in vs. calories out.  Oh well.  I'm trying.  Every. Single. Day.

Here I am this week, a pound heavier.  With all the swimming I have been doing and with the heat wave we are going through, I have just given up on my hair.  I don't know when I became such a wuss, but I tell you, if it is even a degree above 90 I am NOT blow drying it.  So I've been au naturel lately.

Another busy week ahead--our last session of day camp and then Saturday is the big day!  Tomorrow I head back to the physical therapist who had better will hopefully give me permission to run the last leg of the tri!  I will walk it if I have to, but that certainly isn't my first choice.

A friend gave us a ginormous zucchini from her garden.  After having it as a side dish a few times, we started baking with it.  Today I made Zucchini Chocolate Chip Cookies with Craisins, Banana Zucchini Bread and Zucchini Brownies.  Recipes will be forthcoming!!  Despite the heat, I really love the summer for so many reasons!  Our own zucchini are getting close themselves, so I'd better find more recipes to share!!
