Wednesday - Day 4

I don't think I have ever weighed myself in the evening, aside from after a round of serious flu-like symptoms, and found that I weighed less at night than in the morning...and yet...today I jumped on just because I was feeling good, and I weighed less than this morning! This puts me at a total of five pounds since Sunday. I swear to God, I am going to build a shrine to Devin Alexander in my kitchen and pray to it before I cook.

I spent the entire day at work peeing every other hour. I know this means that all the weight I have lost is water weight, but I still consider it a step in the right direction if I have cut down enough sodium to spend my day peeing instead of working. That is true progress! On a side note, my bosses were kind enough to infuse some humor in my day when Boss #1 made a comment to Other Boss about how he knew I wouldn't ever let any task go until it was done right, and Kurt looked him square in the face and said, "You better watch out. You're lucky she still works here." Dead serious. I had to choke not to snort laughter in both their faces.

Unfortunately, dinner tonight was ruined (or not entirely) by my lack of forethought. I forgot to pull out chicken to thaw so the chicken quesadillas I promised my family will have to wait until tomorrow. Tonight's substitute ended up being spinach salad (I'll be making Devin's spinach salad later this week, after we buy some bacon) and crab cocktail. At least the crab and cocktail sauce were both fat free...
