You lost 5 pounds.  That's still going in the right direction!

"I have been eating large servings of my wife's chili for lunch and dinner the past five days."

That must've been a huge pot of chili.   

"Once I get back with the plan"

Interesting comment.  Lots of wiggle room there.  Been stressed lately?  We often revert back to our vices and bad behaviors when things are not going as well as we'd like.  But by doing so, we only make it worse.  Get a good night's sleep, and get back at it tomorrow.  You've done well so far.  Just keep at it.
