The New Number Is....

Eighteen.

Tonight was the night of the weekly "step on the scale" routine at the gym. And the results are in... I am now down 18 pounds total since March 7. Sure, it's going slowly, but it's still going -- especially cool, considering I slipped this past week and ate a Burger King Whopper With Cheese the other night, on top of the Chinese food I had on Saturday. I didn't expect to lose anything at all this week.

But there it was: 18 pounds.

I still have a long way to go before I reach my goal. And it's going slower than I'd like it, of course. But now, I have two fewer pounds to get there. And 18 pounds is still 18 pounds less, which is already an improvement. 18 down, 42 to go. At this rate, I'll be where I want to be by New Year's.

Do you care? Of course not. But I'm psyched, and you're already here. So there. We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

It must be weird walking around without a head.

Almost as weird as walking around without the thing you're missing (from what I hear from Mrs. Doc, anyway).

Guess I can't send you cookies, then.
