    With both feet firmly planted in this wild and wacky world of weight loss - I woke up this morning fully expecting to be a few pounds up from eating at least 1200 calories more yesterday than any day in previous weeks, eating so many of them late at night and a whole whack of sodium, carbs and fat - but alas was .5 pounds down! Just makes no sense - but it made me smile.

    @lauriekallis If you care to, please let us know how your deficit break goes. I'm still debating about doing one or not. I'm curious to hear about your experience. Good luck with it!

    I will be here everyday still. So yes - I'll add a comment when I post my habit check ins this is the only place where people care to hear about this stuff. Even my dog is tired of listening to my weight loss conundrums.
