Fasting Commences

It's just gone 1130a and I'm still not feeling hungry. As I pigged out last night I skipped the scales this morning frightened of what it might reveal. The plan is to drink lots of water to keep my belly full plus assorted diet drinks but I worry about what will happen tonight when I get home.

Wt=202lbs

I went to the hospital this morning regarding the ring finger on my right hand. Basically the doctor say's (and the X-ray) thatI've chipped the bone but surgery is rarely sucessful as it leave stiffness. I thought they were pretty efficient at NGH and hope the pain disappears completely. Thought I should go to the gym during lunch on the way back and then we did the shopping. Nathaniel claimed to have lost his pocket money but we found it under my bed.
