Hey There, Skinny Britches
By Wyatt Earp | November 1, 2008
I should get sick more often. This is what I look like today.
I got on the scale yesterday just to see – as some of my commenters have asked – if I lost any weight during my illness. The answer? Hell yeah! I’m down four pounds to a nice, manageable 195 pounds. It’s the lowest I have been since 1994. I friggin’ rock!
Okay, I really don’t want to get sick like this ever again, and the liquid diet I was on was not my first choice, but at least some good came out of the experience. I’m still breathing, and I lost a few pounds to boot – which is nice, because my staples are right at my waistline. Ouch!
RT should have the others’ progress at her site.

I have a few staple removers if you want one.
Hey, a good stomach virus and you’re goal-city!
(Glad you’re feeling a little better.)

[...] Wyatt has found that liquid diets and illness have an upside. Not one that we’d want to experience, but an upside just the same. [...]

RT – No thanks. I think I’ll wait until November 10th.

That is what I say every time I get sick. If your going to feel that crappy at least the scale should go down a little.

Rick – Not the way I wanted to lose it, but thanks. I’ll probably make it up when I start eating regularly again.
Momster – Agreed.
