You know those lines on the weight chart that demarcate certain weight milestones? Well, I crossed one today (in the RIGHT direction). First time that I've been below that line in over a year. Wooo Hooo!

One week later and I am fully recovered from my vacation weight gain. Still focused on success. I have been experimenting with a concept called "calorie cycling" - which really seems to be working for me and makes it easier to stick to my plan. Has anyone else had success with that approach?

I like this perspective. 2 out of 3, I can do pretty well every day. I try very hard to keep healthy food at the office and can get healthy food delivered if I run out (yes, seriously - I sound spoiled, but those weeks are pretty rough).
