Monthy Weigh In: Point B.

203.6-->207-->208.6

After last month's call for deep thought and self-analysis, I'm going to be brief now. The slight gain is annoying, but not unexpected. I really haven't focused on eating much this past month, but I've made interesting roads into the emotional and professional circles of the ven diagram I presented last month. Despite this being the heaviest I've been in 2 years, my health has never been better, my endurance on the bike and, uh, other physical activities, are strongest it's even been in my entire life.

Though I'm afraid to directly say it as it may cause a jinx, I'm kinda happy right now. Not satisfied or full or complacent or distracted by baubles, but yeah, I'm kinda happy with how things are going. Key word "going", as there seems to be movement from a very dark Point A that starts in February 2010 of the above graph, and will go to some Point C at some undetermined point in the future. It's the trip, not the destination, where all the fun lies. And I don't mean destination like a beach resort in Hawaii, I mean destination, like death. OK, I'll shaddap now.

Heaven, Hell and Point C

I'm gonna try to eat a little less in July. That is all.

WEEKLY AVERAGE: 2920
Very intense but good week. Ate too much because of emotional eating, but I know it's not a new normal and can be related to very specific, non-repeating events.
