Though I am no less determined and on track, two disappointments I have encountered early on in Operation Equinox is firstly there was no rapid immediate loss of weight and secondly the "feeling" hasn't eased off. By tea-time I felt awful, but that made Missus' bacon omelette, a treat she only rarely makes, was particularly wonderful. I don't think I've ever enjoyed a meal so much!
Logic dictates that I must succeed and the "feeling" is only occasional - perhaps the anticipation of food was itself the trigger. I have generally got through Weekend Job shifts, which are fasting days quite well so long as I keep hydrated.
I am feeling a little sorry for Son in his long-distance relationship as he struggles with jealousy - it is essential he gets control of it, as it's a relationship killer. I am myself very grateful that I'm way past all that and it was never really a problem I ever had. The one time Missus did get a crush on someone, I felt hurt rather than jealous, and that was enough to snap Missus out of it.
The spectre of Daughter, after several weeks of blissful absence, has reared her ghastly head once more - as usual getting her mother to spend money, this time on a rail fare to York on Saturday. I compromised and told Missus she could go but the money had to come out of her Christmas pot.
These issues are of course only flea-bites on what is truly a blissful life. I continue to be focused and profoundly grateful.
4. TODAY'S QUESTION FOR YOU
Are you still fighting issues that have actually been long-gone?
5. TODAY'S WEATHER IN BRADFORD
Heavy blustery showers driven by cold gale-force winds throughout

Min Temp = 1 degC at midnight
Sunrise at 06:43

Weathertrack: Britain is in a very strong and wet westerly airflow between depressions to the north and a large anticyclone to the south

6. TODAY'S ONELINER
I used to think Pi was 314, but then someone told me I was missing the point :D
7. NOW THAT'S FUNNY!
Tim Vine oneliners
8. TRIVIA
Cats can only sweat through their paws
9. ZEN WISDOM
Violence erupts when one person blames another for a problem or conflict. Conversely, nonviolence is a way of life in which one resolves, “Let me be the one to change first.” If this spirit were to be embraced, how much more at peace would our families and society itself be.
