Dinner:
Brewers yeast soup with 70 cals of cruciferous veggies (broccoli, cauli, brussels)
1/2 cup Nancy's organic lowfat cottage cheese
1 teaspoon flax oil
2 glasses wine (no chocolate for me... wine is my indulgence)
almonds as needed
Snacks:
extra fruit (blueberries, kiwi, grapefruit, etc.), almonds, yogurt
Calorie Goal: 1500
Exercise goal: 30 mins treadmill 5 days per week
3 Pilates classes a week or video
some sort of arm weight lifting to be determined
So far so good...

I'm semi-confused about the saga of April here, why have you increased your calories by more then 20% what we were seeing as daily for the past year and yet you are losing weight? Was the eating out once a week really equivalant to an extra 1500~ calories a week?
