  Diet Comment
The last six days have been a series of cheats. Gigs, parties, and New York City restaurants. I've been having a great time, and while it was going on, I indulged. To the degree of averaging a pound a day gain. Lots of bread, and lots of desserts. Pretty low in the vegetable department.

I'm not sure, but I think, as far as diet goes, this may have been my best weekend ever. It's silly, but I got a thrill when the scale rolled down to an even two-hundred. Of course, I probably undid some of that when I allowed myself to get very, very hungry before shopping, right before dinner (Wegman's is open 24/7).

  Diet Comment
Good - I'm losing weight. At the moment. We'll see if I can keep the trend going, given that I'm having a (very) off-plan dinner (well, it's lunch on my crazy eating schedule) at Funk'n'Waffles, one of my favorite places for off-plan eating. There was also an unusual high amount of alcohol consumed. Not a formula for weight loss, or, for that matter, good health. Sigh.

Food Log
Breakfast
4:35pm: Chef salad: Spring Mix, cabbage, shaved parmesan, walnuts, hard-boiled eggs and prosciutto.

Lunch
10:00pm, at Funk'n'Waffles:
Falafel Waffle. The good news, although it looks like melted cheese, it's actually tahini dressing.
Dinner
12:45am: Carrots and homemade mayonnaise, cottage cheese and a Quest bar.

Liquid Intake
   Espressos: 1;   Coffee: 16 oz.;  Tea: 0 oz.;  Water: 94+ oz.; plus a shot of tequila, and at least 3 shots of Jameson's Irish whiskey.
