Ray, no, no, no. You don't have to replace that clippie. This is just a blip in the road, and it doesn't diminish the fact that you HAVE lost 40 pounds. Now, if you were to gain the 40 back, we'll talk. In the meantime, get that clippie put back. You are an inspiration to all of us out here, and believe me, we all know the trials of up and down!!!!!
Don't worry about those bars. Drink extra water this week and it'll be better next. I guess that it's true, though, that too much of a good thing can be bad! Even on Atkins!!!! (See we who aren't on it, picture you sitting down with a HUGE steak, a pile of shrimp, a block of cheese and a whole ham at every meal!)
Enjoy the Courtyard! We'll be checking in in exactly 168 hours! Hopefully in time for the Manager's reception. I'd love a glass of wine!
