Day 184 - Back on Track

Even if the scale doesn't show it yet, I'm back on track. Two solid days of adherence to the diet, at least with regards to what I'm eating. I'm still a 3-5oz over each day, but that's not a huge deal. I'm just glad that I never had the really bad hunger pangs like I did after binging on jerky.

With it being summer, there's simply no really great way to get weight daily. I drink so much liquid just to keep cool, and I'm in and out of A/C environment where I do and don't sweat, that I know I'm retaining crazy water. I've literally woken up and been 4 or 5 pounds lighter than I was the previous day, after holding steady for a week. Given that problems I had as recently as four days ago, I'm not fixated on the scale right now. I will be in a few days, when the weather breaks and the last of the almonds are completely flushed from my system.

I'm planning on doing a six month retrospective tomorrow, as I started this diet on March 3rd. I was surprised that it's well past a half year by days, and then I remembered that while I've dieted through two of the 30 day months, the other half of the year has February. So I'm a few days over the technical line, I'm more interested in what month I'm in. I'm taking the GMAT tomorrow, so this retrospective will probably be written and even posted tonight.
