Mon, Oct. 24 - Gained 1 pound since yesterday, so I am 14.5 pounds from my goal. I did the requisite walking plus additional exercise in the form of yard work yesterday, so I'm not happy about the gain, although I cannot say I am surprised by it-- this just seems to be the way of this program and my body's response to it. Again, in comparison to my many forays into dieting, this is not much better or worse than Weight Watchers ever was for me.
