Weekly weigh-in: Better than expected

When was the last time I said that about my Friday morning weigh-in? But it was, indeed, better than expected. I was on vacation last weekend and indulged in all the wrong foods and drinks. Then, there was Election Day on Tuesday. Between the two, I had pancakes, bacon, fudge, pizza, cake, beer, etc., etc. I was fully prepared not to lose any weight this week and to possibly gain a little. But the scale was my friend this morning -- 1.4 pounds lost. That brings me to a total of 74.4 pounds. Wow! I'm amazed each time I think about that number. And I could not have asked for a better result this week.
