Thought for the day: Can it be coincidence that 'stressed' is 'desserts' spelled backwards?
Another 200 gms melted away. Current weight: 77.8 kg. That's the most delightful part of having been 86 kg not so long ago: now even 77 kg seems positively sylph-like. Both my work skirts (I only own two skirts and no dresses) are loose, which is a novelty.
I wasn't expecting to have lost any weight this week actually because I had taken the day off for Jim's birthday and been out for a fine curry. Did I say a DAY off? Ok, it sort of developed into a weekend off ... a long weekend off.
I got called into work again this Monday. It's gratifying to be so indispensable but it meant missing my weight watchers meeting for the third week in a row. It's now gonna cost me the best part of $35 to attend another meeting and I'm thinking of other ways to spend the money. They have just brought out a new Star Trek: The Next Generation magazine that comes with a DVD every week. If I gave up paying someone to weigh me once a week I could collect all ten Trek movies and a zillion episodes. So let me consider this for a second: I can either spend my money on having someone make me feel bad or I can purchase a little low-cal escapism. No contest. The Trekkies have it. Just wait till I can fit into the ST uniform!
