This is belated by 2.5 days, but I guess I didn't feel like posting.
Anyhow, my Sunday weight was 216 -- UP 1.25 lbs. Hence the "Ahhhhh!"
I'm vowing not to let one week derail anything, and I'm back on the horse. My plan at this point (after a semi-prodigal Mon-Tues) is to fast Wed (today), Fri (which I've done the last 2-3 Fridays), and Sun. I'll only eat on Thurs and Sat. Let's see how that works...

bad blogger!
I have not been posting. Bad!
Anyhow, I have lowered my weight each week for 4 weeks in a row -- last week by a whopping three-quarters of a pound! That was 214.75 on Sunday night.
I abandoned the 2 meals a day thing on Thursday and fasted with limited binges the remainder. That really works better for me. :)
My main goal is simply to be lower every week. Even at 1 lb/wk I'll be under 200 by June.
But 2 lbs/wk would be much better!

Over the months I've seen both rodent and human studies showing benefits in intermittent fasting.

If I can ever amass enough moral fiber I will try one day fast the next eat almost ad lib but only items of high nutrition and as low a glycemic index as practical - seems to work well for some on the CR-ON forum - or perhaps a 2 day per week fast like the 2 least stressful days in your week - whatever works - my diet is one long ever changing experiment.

14 meals in 7 days
In reaction to some of the constructive advice I've been receiving, usually punctuated by words such as "crazy" or "disorder" or "moron" -- as in "You've got an eating disorder, you crazy moron!" I've decided to try a different tack this week. Starting yesterday (Monday), I'm eating two small meals a day, and no snacks. 3 down, 11 to go; so far so good.
It feels like I'm actually eating a lot, but I suspect if I have (only) 11 more meals like the last 3 I'll lose weight. Even rationality is worth an experiment at least.

215.5
Not a great outcome. One-quarter pound from prior week. Too much Super Bowl, too much everything. I don't feel like I'll even want to eat today, but by 6pm could be a different story...
