Weight: -7 lbs. (-1 since last week)
upper arm: -.75 in. (+.25)
chest: -1 in. (+.25)
waist: -1.25 (no change)
hip: -1.75 (-1)
thigh: -1 (+1.5)

Belated report because I spent this weekend out on the boat helping Mom and Rich prepare for the 4th of July. Not great results since last week but overall I'm pleased; I think that's good work for the first month. At this rate I should be down to my target weight in three more months. Alas, _after_ swimsuit season. That's a bit slower than I had originally hoped for, but it's probably healthier, and still fits into my overall plan for the remainder of this year. We're looking to move in August/September, so that'll be a nice fresh start. New house, new body, less clutter, better eating and exercise habits. Yeah, that sounds nice.

This volume contains "A Study in Scarlet" through "The Hound of the Baskervilles." I actually preferred the shorter stories in between (except for "The Final Problem"); the longer ones just seemed to drag. It took me two weeks, TWO WEEKS to read "The Hound of the Baskervilles," which is only 120 pages long.

On the whole, though, I have enjoyed the stories. I can imagine how much work it must have been to come up with so many different scenarios and solutions, and why Doyle hoped to escape it by killing off Sherlock. I'm curious to see if the stories in the second volume are of the same quality. And I'm looking forward to the movie despite whatever inaccuracies there are sure to be.
