The Last Weight Loss Diet? Day 9: Food Log

I went far off diet today. 

Life intervened.

I will skip on the details but a family member is in bad health and we are not satisfied with his care. So after putting in a ten-hour workday, I drove home to my wife and we spent two and a half hours writing, revising, editing, perusing, revising, and emailing our desperate proposal. Today, I fax our pleas to the appropriate parties.

I drank black coffee and seltzer water throughout the day.

@11:50 PM I ate heartily.I devoured some leftovers--a piece of steak and some potatoes. I then completed my dinner with a hungry man portion of a simple dish of rice and ground beef my wife had prepared.

Since I was off-diet, I consumed 3 oz. of gin and I ate about a generous serving of mixed chocolate candy for dessert. 

I estimate that I consumed somewhere close to 2000 calories. 

This is being written Tuesday morning and I already weighed myself; Drum roll please....despite my splurge, I lost another pound. that's right, I went from 223 yesterday to 222 today.

What a diet!
