Much like in military strategy, I think that a surge or push of commitment to the diet is having positive effects early on. I've had three good days of strict adherence, including a heartbreaking moment yesterday when I grilled porterhouse steaks with my family but only ate the filet, leaving the strip for later. I'm not one to leave steak on the table, but I'm trying for three good weeks.
It is suprising, even to me, how little appetite I have when I'm good on the diet. I fill up quickly, I don't get hungry as long as I keep my mind busy, and I've been walking briskly for exercise.
Mentally, my current plan is to focus on short term goals. I'm not worried about reaching 250lbs, or staying on until march. Now I'm only worried about staying on until my doctor's appointment at the end of September. It's three weeks, which is emininently doable, and hopefully I'll crack the 287lb barrier along the way.
