It's Christmas!

Weight: 250.6
It went down again.  WOOHOO.  I discovered why it had stopped - it WAS water retention - I started my period and POOF.  weight go down.  Interesting.

Note: It's Christmas.  Diet was turned off for today.  It'll go back on tommorrow.

Breakfast: more of Ami's chili.  NomNomNom

Snack:
nuts (not sure how many - lots.  I snacked on and off all day.)
1 pumpkin mini muffin

Lunch/Dinner:
Chevys.I had a chille rellano, a bowl of corn chowder, half a plate of fajita nachos, and some chips and salsa.

So, I TOTALLY went off the diet at dinner.  This was planned (ok, originally it was going to be a 0-carb turducken, but we discovered turducken sucks)  I'm glad I did it.  I could tell how much the LACK of carbs was helping me, but the sudden injection of them at dinner, and being able to WATCH the effect was really instructive.

I've spent the rest of the evening with a headache, slightly dizzy, slightly nauseous, and feeling kinda hungry.  Jason kept keeping an eye on me.  It's apparently obvious how much of a difference it made.

We went to the theater a few hours later.  Popcorn was not tempting.  The smell is usually SO enticing.  I didn't even care.  I had NO snacks.

Carbs are bad for me.  Tonight proved that. Diet is back on tommorrow morning.  I do not feel deprived by it. It's turning into more of a security blanket.  I just want the dizzy-sick to go AWAY.

Also, Chevy's doesn't do a good job of chille rellano.  Just saying. :)
