Weigh-in 2

Can't decide if this is weigh-in 1 (since it is the first since the strike really got going) or weigh-in 2 (after the initial weigh-in).

Either way: I've dropped 8.7 lbs in about as many days.

That's less than I was expecting.

              Doc: a little less than expected, but it makes sense. A pound is about 3,000 calories. While you've cut most of your calories, you've also sat on your ass and slept most of the time, so you haven't been burning much.  Plus, once you stop getting the amount of calories you need in a day, your metabolism slows down and enters starvation mode, so you actually burn less calories than had you kept eating. 


okay.

            Doc: Yes.
