Diet Comment:

I'm not all the way back, but that is a fair start. Unfortunately, I waited just a little too long to eat, and ended up really hungry. Also, unfortunately, I had just bought a big hunk of Romano cheese. Which I ate. All of.


I have discovered that cheese is a trigger food for me. I can't have it around if I'm going to successfully keep my weight down. The combination of high-calorie and high-sodium is not good for me. 

Daily Comment:

On the issue of exercising self-control, I don't have a lot to say. Certainly when compared to the issues I had with it in the past, I am a model of self-control. Most of my life, I was, too put it in simple and understated terms, impulsive. Now, I usually have no trouble exercising a good deal of self-control. Sometimes, of course, not so much. I am okay with the balance I have now. 


But I think the idea of exercising self-control is off. I don't really think it ebbs and flows. I think you get to know what situations invoke 'uncontrollable' impulses, and, over time, learn to cope when that happens, as a matter of self-interest, if not self-preservation.
