Assessing the Damage

I have been missing in action for 5 days! I've returned to the paleo plan...I'm baaack! I weighed myself 1st thing this morning and much to my surprise I only gained 2 lbs...that means I kept 4.5 lbs off...yippee! Not that I should be jumping for joy about this but at least I didn't regain the 6.5 lbs I initially lost. I did go for a spin on my bike...to the left is one of the hills I climbed. Great workout! It's 30 degrees outside but I didn't notice it until I got home and got off my bike. This was only a 6-mile loop. This was pretty much an uneventful day. I have been trying to finish a book I started last year and is due tomorrow...The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. It is the 3rd in a trilogy by Stieg Larsson. The previous 2 books: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Girl Who Played with Fire were both excellent.
