The haunting ¡°The Impossible Dream¡± was the signature number in ¡°Man of La Mancha, ¡± the musical about Don Quixote. It has been used as the theme of many a high school yearbook and commencement speech and to this day it¡¯s still sung, at least by me.

I identify with Don Quixote. I, too, tilt at windmills and break into the song every morning when I step on my scale.

My dream is that during the night I went on a special diet, exercised at a furious pace and magically lost 10 pounds. Well, we all know that is truly the impossible dream.

But how can you gain weight merely by sleeping? I have no memories of devouring six hot fudge sundaes during my slumber. I have it on the best authority that I don¡¯t sleepwalk and wake up to find myself burrowing through the refrigerator. I could go on a three-week hunger strike only to jump three dress sizes. I am certainly the only one on this planet who can suffer a three-day bout with an intestinal flu and pick up four pounds. My metabolism must make a tortoise
