Today was a work day, and cafeteria food calories are guesstimates. Chicken pot pie is always worth it. The smashed potatoes had no flavor an were cold by the time I got to them, so it's a good thing I didn't have butter within reach to revive them. 

I have decided I am allowed at least 2,000 calories for work days. If I eat under 2.000 I am allowed to bank the extra.

This means if I get to sleep without eating more tonight, I get over 2,500 calories tomorrow. Heck yes.

Like a bowl full of jelly

Screw you, holidays. 153.6.

The proper family Christmas gathering is the 26th through the 2nd. Longer than originally anticipated due to my recent voluntary liberation from a bad job.

How do I bring my scale so that I know my 2013 start weight without drawing attention to myself? Will it even give me the right number after being mashed around in a suitcase and hidden away between checks?

How do I get 3.6 pounds off in the midst of family meals?

Ugh. My first thought is to allow TWO meals of unbridled foodiness that week, and tell people I'm being "healthy" the rest of the time, whilst munching veggies constantly and not much at mealtime. I will NOT slip into a new year without hitting my goal yet again.

And I need you know somehow

Because numbers give me comfort.

The goal: 150 or less by January 1.

The plan: No calorie limit. Less than 15 grams carbohydrate per meal or 100 g per day, duration at least one week. Some leniency for work days and nights where I can't sleep if I don't get a few extra carbs in.

High weight: 191.4
Current weight: 153
