Transcript:
Mom: After a week on the "farmer's market eating plan", do you feel lighter? Cathy: YES! Mom: Healthier? Cathy: YES! Mom: Stronger? Cathy: YES! Mom: Happier? Cathy: YES! Mom: More energetic and alive? Cathy: YES! Mom: Is there any reason on earth to step on the scale to "see how you're doing"??? Cathy: YES! Mom: See? We're just like you after all. It doesn't count as a win unless we see the number on the scoreboard.

And when the scale says all that fiber and health still in your guts has made you gain a pound you realize donuts are lighter than apples.

You know Cathy isn’t going to like those numbers.

A week is not enough time for any diet to really work especially for someone as inactive as Cathy. Reminds me of my first year of Karate a couple of decades ago – after one year my Sensei asked if my weight had changed (I was a little overweight back then – – wait, I am the same weight now). I answered that the scales read the same but I had to tighten my belt. Muscle weighs more but takes up less room than fat.
I think this is a first – we turned the air conditioner on in May where we normally turn it on in June. Something about 85F temps with high humidity. Of course tomorrow it will be back down in the 50’s again. If we could only save some heat from today and use it tomorrow.
I hope everyone is enjoying the weekend – especially if you get Monday off.

Hopefully Cathy sees at least ONE pound of loss when she steps on the scale or it’ll completely discourage her and she’ll quit a brand new diet that she was not only happy with, but really felt like it was helping her lose weight too.

For once, I can’t argue against the logic of a character in the “Cathy” comic … third panel tonight. What is this world coming to?? Ha.
HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.

I weigh myself every day…hopefully I’ll still be a WW Lifer at the end of covid…they were letting us text our weight once/month instead of having to show up, but now they’ve discontinued that. They also have not opened a site within 15 miles of my house so, I’m just waiting.
