Okay....so I thought I'd take a lesson from the past and end my Half-Hannukah by having a whole 'lotta wine.
I carefully monitored my calories during the day to ensure that even though I was going over my usual number (1300) I wouldn't gain weight if "every day was like today." The final count was 1750. I thought I was golden.....
Until the freakin' scale remained at 156.2 this morning......and then jumped up to 157 once I had some much-needed water.
So the lesson: cheating seldom pays....even if it did that time last September.
I'll get right back on track today and just hope that by the Week 2 Progress Report things have gotten back to normal.
But for now, the Half-Hannukuh continues. Shalom.
