Steak Day

It's been a long time, but I'm going to do one.  Ok, I'm planning to do one on Wednesday.  The weight keeps creeping up there (I thought I had stabilized.).  So I hope it stops it, and yes, takes a bit off.  I hate them.  Steak/apple days are only ok during the 15 minutes it takes you to eat your dinner.  The rest of the day stinks.

I take some comfort as my pants get steadily tighter that in January, I'll be stopping and reversing.  It's lame it requires such extreme and uncomfortable action on my part, but at least, for awhile, my weight goes down, not up.

It's also a good opportunity to detox and reset eating habits.  It's a very long 10 weeks, though (especially the seven on the no-food diet).  I even consider that a blessing.  Unlike most Americans, I can say, I really DO know what it's like to be starving for weeks and months on end.  But I do know my situation (when there) is temporary, and my choice, however unpleasant it is.
