God willing, I'll be  entering either year eight of keeping off the
weight or containing it within a "two pound box." When fall falls, and
outdoor exercise time shortens I notice I hover at the top of the two
pound limit (I weigh evry day) and it's time to plug the leaky rowboat
before it and I become the Titanic. The problem is I test and post
recipes for a gastric diet being followed by people who are mostly
underweight, wheras I used to clock in at 219.
I dialogue with these people all day, every day.

It's time to return to my roots, to ASD the place I can always get
motivation to think "smart weight management" again. Out of the drawer
come tried and true mantras from the past like increase the volume of
vegetables and fruits, use less dietary fat but keep some in, stay out
of the kitchen between meals, easy oon the beef meals and cheese and
don't bake any more Peanut Butter brownies until 2007.

Even though the old old forty year plus, old Weight Watchers' diet is
obsolete, what we did then worked; the fish meals. the "free foods."
the limits on foods too high in sugar and fat.

I'm punching in at Fitday and as always at the beginning, recording
evry miniscule bite (that will last for maybe three days LOL)
