under the broiler

Mmmmmmm. I picked up some filet mignon at the St Lawrence Market on the weekend and am treating myself to some today. Call it my own little Canada Day treat. With steamed brussel sprouts and carrots on the side.

On Monday morning at work one of my co-workers looked at me and went "Have you lost weight, you bastard?". It hadn't occurred to me that I might have, and when I went to a scale yesterday I discovered I have. I am down to 215 lbs already from 220 when I started the new eating plan. I am much encouraged by this.

It's a good day. The laundry is done, the dishes are done, dinner is cooking, I feel better rested than I was the other day, and it's a short week. Yes, I, like so many others, had today off from work, which was great. I only have 3 shifts left for the week and it'll be the weekend again. I've even managed to balance myself financially for a change, although every time I read the paper all I see is how we are teetering on the economic brink of disaster. Way to instil confidence.

Anyways. Dinner will be ready in a bit, I can relax before work and have an easy night of it (one hopes, anyway).

That is all.
