Banting Breakfast Day 2!
Half a package of bacon, a strong cup of Constant Comment, and approximately one ounce of bread.
Oof, I'm getting a late start today! May have to have a second breakfast like a Hobbit in a bit or combine this meal with tea. I need to get on a schedule, which can be so hard to do when you're unemployed.
Last night I got hungry and had a piece and a half of bread (one piece with butter) and about three ounces of kombucha (not entirely unlike wine? Hey, I own it, might as well use it up). Definitely did not eat enough during the day yesterday.
I didn't weigh myself today because I have decided to weigh myself in precisely the same time intervals Banting did, about every 2-3 weeks. As a woman whose weight can be arbitrarily affected by where I am in my cycle (especially post ovulation and PMS) it can be discouraging to weigh every day. Better to get the big picture!
I also forgot to mention that I am two inches shorter than Banting (5'3") and much younger (but old and corny enough to quip a lady doesn't tell her age). I'll try to dig up my sewing kit today so I can compare our waist sizes. I know mine is...not small, although there is still an hourglass figure under there.
And yes, I am washing and using the same plate and cup, like I said I'm reorganizing and most of my dishes are in boxes or in limbo. So right now I'm doing the one plate, one cup, one goblet thing like the main character in Miranda July's gross, crazy novel where she also never washes the pan and calls it "seasoning." Anyways, got stuff to do today, blog more when I eat next time!
