The expected little bump came. I expect a small loss tomorrow after today's on-plan eating. Then comes the 24-hour fast of Wednesday (no food until dinner). I think that will put me back under 202, and by Saturday, maybe under 200. We'll see, of course, and, of course, I'm just saying. It doesn't really matter that much. I'm looking and feeling pretty good right now.

I should point out that I had a kind of major diet fail - I was offered a petits-four, and, out of politeness accepted, whereupon my kind coworker gave me the entire plate and was gone before I 'got' it. Ahhh, Christmas-time in the Golden Snowball!

Daily Comment

I don't know how I feel about yesterday's comment. Maybe it was offensive, and I'm not sure I made the point I was I am just not feeling the Christmas spirit this year. In the past, I have tried to embrace the holidays as a go-along, get-along kind of thing - but the lack of feeling anything but stress at the consumerism of the holiday, and the buffeting I'm taking at the hands of retail advertisers - is really preventing me from seeing anything attractive about the season.

I like that my band's gig this Saturday is a benefit for the Food Bank. My bandmates have been very generous. That's the Christmas spirit.
