Well, Sona, thus far today I have had:

pancakes/eggs/banana

1/2 turkey reuben, french onion soup, salad with honey mustard drsg

cott cheese/cashew butter

total yogurt, almond butter, and berries

Still to come:
pizza, an apple, and a small order of fries

I am (so far) finding that I don't want to shove my head into the feedbag. I can actually FEEL the carbs... sort of a whooshing feeling into my muscles. I should have a helluva workout tomorrow

Ran this morning, slow again:
34:50/3.5 miles
On the treadmill so I could watch CNN while I sweated. Still planning on abs this evening as well.

The really cool thing is that my NEXT refeed will be feb 11th, which is when new DH and I will be going out for our valentine's day fete.

Updated stats: weighed 143.4 this morning, but skinfolds down:

Ant thigh 20mm
Tri 11 mm
SI 5 mm

Also, the omron, which usually has me ~5% over what the calipers say, has been steadily decreasing. According to IT, I was 22.1% yesterday morning vs 23.5% when I measured with it at the beginning of the GSD. I would say that I believe I've lost around 1% bodyfat... there is definitely more leanness in my upper body and I'm starting to see the hint of oblique demarcation again, despite the bathroom issues and the subsequent bloat. Also, I am about a week out from the curse, so I tend to have water retention and even MORE issues with the other problem which, quite frankly, grosses me out. I never understood why all my 85 yr old patients are so fixated on their bathroom habits until now

Last thing--although I calculated my carbs (at 15% of total cals) to be around 60ish/day, on the PN site JB's example for a 1500 cal plan only had 38 g/day... which is 10% obviously. I think I'll plan to cut a few more and up the fats a smidgen for the next two weeks. The trip to DC that I will be making on Wednesday may make me exist on meat and cheese... sigh... I think I had better buy some appetite suppressants or I may encounter difficulty there.... or maybe I will just eat protein powder and fish oil caps. Ick.
