Today's Weight:        200.8 lbs
Yesterday's Weight:    198.8 lbs
Net Loss/Gain:         + 2.0 lbs

This is my daily weight chart since ending the Slow-Carb diet. July 9 was the 1st day of Phase 1, and July 23 the start of Phase 2 of The 6 week Cure for the Middle-Aged Middle.

This is Day 58 post-Slow-Carb, day 4 of 14 of Phase 2 of The 6-week Cure for the Middle-Aged Middle.

I certainly did pay the price for yesterday's gluttony. But total hero that I am, I will simply move on, with spirits undiminished.

But I'm really not worried about my weight. I am more interested in my body composition. I only weigh myself daily now out of habit, and to give me something to do as far as daily recordable observations. Weight is just the easiest thing to measure; it is far from the most important.

Most important is probably the way my clothes fit. I'm happy to report that belts bought only a month ago are now on their last punch - new belts will be needed soon. A sport jacket that I bought recently - a size larger than I needed because of its shape and cut, now is big on me (not that I can't wear it, but I can wrap it more than the buttons allow...

So... I'm very happy with my progress. Not down because I got hungry last night.

Today, I ate three meals, and finished dinner relatively early. Then I did the late-night snack thing. Again. It's all good, but, most importantly, I'll be back at it tomorrow.
