November 26, 2009

Dear Diary,

Happy Thanksgiving! It's probably fairly safe to say that no effort was put forth to add numbers to my log today. Today was about spending time with family. That's the case for most of us on such a holiday. We had a great lunchtime celebration.

But the day started off with a guilt-trip from my scale. Yep, it's hard to just let loose and feast when the scale has told you that another pound is gone. Missing. Can't be found. Well, it took much effort, but I decided very soon to take a lesson from the Bible.

See, just like that shepherd left the 99 and went searching for that one lost lamb, I too would head out in search of that lost pound. I searched for most of the morning and afternoon. Even through dessert, and my arrival back at home. I can tell you now that I will sleep happily. That lost pound has been found.

(It should be noted, though that tomorrow I plan to lose it again...)
