Day 59 39.5" and a Shadow

After my new workout yesterday, I woke up this morning to a 39.5 inch waist. The first such reading in over 20 years (with one exception caused by illness). It has been 46 for as long as I can remember. It gave me a real morale boost. I was so enthused I worked right through breakfast and lunch with only a tomato juice and one dried fig. When I came home from the gym to take a shower I noticed a black mark on my stomach. Closer inspection proved it to be a shadow. It was the slightest showing of the top of my six-pack which for all intents and purposes I had forgotten I had. As a test of my my regimen, I tested my sugar count 20 minutes after my dinner. It had fallen to 97. What a miracle. I will continue to monitored it closely.
