Day #17 weigh-in: 120.2, once again down .2 pound from the previous day. Exercise yesterday consisted of only a 1/2-mile jog and a couple of laps in the YMCA pool.

At the end of the 28 days, we’ll determine our Metabolic Function Index, a measure of our metabolic rate, using the tables in Dr. Sanford Siegal’s book, Is Your Thyroid Making You Fat?.
