Whittling away

Yesterday afternoon, a colleague said that I've grown thinner since joining the service. I laughed it off, saying that I hadn't been exercising as much as I should (and liked to) and that I have been eating my dinners at about 10-11 pm every day when I get home from work and slept within an hour or two of those full meals. Those were the perfect ingredients for not losing weight.

This morning, I weighed myself. I had lost 3 kg since starting work in August. That's about 1 kg every month. At this rate, I'll disappear from the planet in about 4 years and 3 months.
