It's wild to think I messed up enough to weigh 200 pounds. It's also slightly sobering to think I've taken this long to get to a weight a few pounds more than I used to freak out and start diets.
Oh well, measurable progress often makes us happy. And I still am smiling that I lost those 20 pounds. As odd as my current diet may seem -- and I think everyone who I have explained it to in person thinks its crazy -- I think it is a sustainable way to go. I'm going to keep on this path for a few weeks, and then in November I plan a short detour, which I will explain in due time.
