Down Seven Pounds

In my overall drive to lose 20 pounds, I want to let you know that I have now lost 7.  This is difficult to do having survived two warm weekends and the barbecuing that goes with them.  I have been able to do this by moderating what I eat, and trying to avoid the things that are my weaknesses - peanut butter, juices, cheese and junk foods.  It's a struggle.
