1st big problem

My daily calorie needs are supposed to be 2100 Kcals but I ate only 1289 yesterday. So I think this is part of the problem. When I eat well, I don't eat enough. I think this may also be why I can't keep doing this for more than a week. My body just can't take it. I know I will eat more when I start running again but right now I think I need to add 200-300 calories more.
At 1331 Kcals, today was better so we'll see how well this works.

We're terrible. This blog was supposed to keep us on track and motivated to lose weight. 20 lbs by June was the plan, I believe?

The thing is, I am 10 lbs behind. So, since we aren't being productive enough with respect to this blog, I propose that we start making this more of a food journal. The next post today is a list of all the food I ate today. Fun...
