223.75, down from yesterday's 224.75.
A pound a day! Very, very nice! I'll take it! At that rate, I would be 70 pounds lighter in 70 days ... by Christmas. Yeah, like that's going to happen.
The reducing diet is going well. I'm a little hungry by meal times, but the meal satisfies. Yesterday's herbal teas kept me happy for snack in the morning. Today I'm doing fruit for a morning snack ... actually, for a top-off to breakfast, since I just woke up at 10 a.m. So the very first thing I get to do is drink three glasses of water, one with lemon juice in it, eat a bran pancake and ... oh, I'll eat an apple first thing.
Lunch is chicken salad and water. Right now, I have to thaw the chicken.
2 pm is herbal tea.
3 pm is Wasa and water.
Dinner will have to be early today; I have a Toastmasters meeting at 6, so dinner, fish (probably halibut tonight; I bought haddock, halibut and salmon yesterday), Wasa and water, will be at 5.
I'll get home from the Toastmasters meeting at about 8:45, at which point I'll have a bowl of strawberries and water.

Weighing In 9/28/2018
211.0, up 3.5 lb from Wednesday's 207.5
That's the wrong direction. And that is frustrating. Time for an egg-grapefruit day. But I don't have any grapefruit. I will buy a bag and do an egg-grapefruit day tomorrow.
However, there is reason. I am exercising significantly more, so am building muscle. That's a good thing. But 211.0 ... no. Also, I went to Friendly's after Toastmasters last night for dinner. I did not go hog-wild, but I did have a Happy Ending™ sundae after my grilled cheese sandwich and tomato basil soup.
Well, back to the boards, as they say. No Darryl workout today, so today I do Callanetics. This is the first time I've done that routine in eons. That'll tighten up my gut in no time flat.

Weighing In 9/13/2018
209.75. No change from yesterday.
I actually broke the diet regimen last night for dinner. I had Mick's maple salmon. The salmon is fine; the maple has SUGAR. Sugar is a total no-no on this regimen. Well, it's back to the straight and narrow today. Tomorrow I take my daughter and her boyfriend to Sushi X for lunch, then go to Concord for my law-school class reunion over the weekend. That, too, will break the regimen (though I will, of course, be sensible). So I'll do an egg-grapefruit day on Monday to get things back on track.
Going to the gym this morning to let Darryl beat me up and put me through the baseline exercise routine for the challenge. That will wear me out for the rest of the day.... I did the weigh-in on Tuesday, and that measures all kinds of things besides weight. It seems that I'm a bit dehydrated; I don't drink enough water. Divide your weight in half and that's the number of ounces of water you should drink per day. I'll NEVER get 105 ounces of water down my gullet in a day...that's another reason to lose the weight!
Toastmasters tonight! I'm talking, giving my icebreaker speech. And I'm Grammarian. I'm more nervous about the grammarian function than I am about the speech.
