Day 13

242 this morning...again heading in the right direction and very very close to 10 pound loss. Nice...been a long time! Sugar 7.8...that's ok as well.

Katie is also down another pound so she is also close to 10 pound loss. Excellent!

Today...we are taking a rest...so we are having turkey bacon, eggs and toast for breakfast. We've been strict for 12 days so now it is rest time for one day. We will see how badly that sets us back, but we are not really focused on that as long as we get back on track and do what we have been doing for the last 12 days.

After a few errands, Katie and I went to the casino, where we had a great day. We didn't have lunch as we weren't hungry. We had a roasted chicken club house sandwich and fries for supper. We had popcorn later on in the night, so it was really a rest day from what we've been doing that's for sure.

I was not going to post the weight part after a day like that, but because I want this blog to be good for all and educational, I can tell you the scale shows .6 lb gain and Katie shows a 2 lb gain which is probably somewhat retaining water on account of too much salt content. Sugar reading 7.1 so that didn't take a beating...at least not yet.

So now that we had a day eating things that taste great but we know are bad for us, at least the bacon on the club sandwich and the other condiments like cheese, and the butter on the popcorn, are we done? Not by a long shot, we are right back to the eat to live regime today.

more later...
