I’ll probably start every week of this program with a slight hangover.  Not severe this morning.  I’ve had a lot worse.  Just that horribly poisoned feeling and a headache.  I’m about to climb on the elliptical for another 31 minutes before breakfast.  It’s Sunday, and already 10:36am.  Slept in a bit.

I realize that I want to make a graph of the weight loss that can be updated each weigh in.  Coming up.

We told Elaine about this program yesterday, and she says she’s going to go on it too.  I hope she does.  She could send in her comments each day, as I do these posts.  We could start a club.  Or a movement.  What fun.

Okay, get on that machine and sweat out this poison, Zale.

Whew.  618 calories this morning in my 31 minutes.  Feeling good now.  An aerobic workout really is the best hangover cure.  Ruth has heated up the soup.  Lean beef broth and cabbages and mushrooms, left over from last week.  A good start to being back on the program.

I was too tired to even finish this post last night, so I’m editing it this morning, day 2 of week 2.

I went looking for a banjo (nothing to do with this program so it shouldn’t even be mentioned I suppose) and a double boiler in the afternoon.  No success finding either.  The Chinese are not big on boiling, and all the pots in the supermarket had holes in the middle layer to make them into steamers.

All I can add is that I was strict with my eating and water consumption, but I generally felt a bit crappy in the evening.  I made another batch of cottage cheese from skimmed milk,  poached two large skinless chicken breasts in a bit of the whey, then crashed.  Feeling good now.

I’ve relaxed about keeping track of my water consumption.  I’m drinking nothing but water, and probably close to 3 liters a day, but keeping track of it is boring and pointless.
