Saw a little 'bounce' with yesterday's normal-calorie day following a very low-calorie day.

Daily Comment

About 95% of the time, I write these comments the day after the posting date, because I prefer to do it in the morning rather than late at night, when all the day's data is in.  This typically means I already know the results from that day's eating, although I maintain the illusion that I don't. 

I think of this as a literary device. I try to pretend I don't have 'future knowledge' (after all, sometimes I don't have the relevant information yet, if I'm writing before weigh-in).
