small scare

I flew out on Tuesday to get to SD for you. Food and sleep had become trivial. I showered on Monday, and then I didn't shower again until Thursday morning, so it was kind of a shock when I saw myself in the mirror Thursday. It scared me, actually. I knew I hadn't eaten much since Sunday, but I didn't know it could affect me so sharply.

I didn't weigh myself right away, cause I was a little afraid, but I think I did later on in the day. A little freezing, to see that I'd dropped to 125. The last time I checked at home, I was probably 132, 133 lb. I don't know how close the scales were, though.

I won't say I suddenly got my appetite back. Lunch on Friday was good, but I didn't do a proper dinner and it was hard to eat on Saturday. Today was almost normal. I'd say I had two meals today. I got home and checked and I'm at 124.9. But over the week, at some point after I first noticed the weight drop, I went up to 127 or so. I guess I dropped back down, but I'm pretty sure I'm doing better.

I should be okay, I think. 5, 10 lbs. isn't that noticeable. I know you like food, so I'm going to try harder to eat a little more properly.
