OK, down about 17 or 18 lbs. Two or 3 more to go before we leave for Spain Sept. 25th. I’m happy to be back in the groove living fairly well on about 1200 to 1500 calories per day. My goal in Spain is to maintain or lose a little more, and then when I get back home to focus really hard for a couple of months on the next twenty lbs. The hard thing isn’t so much being hungry and feeling that low blood sugar feeling. The hard thing is to get over my obsessive compulsive over-eating habit, especially at night or when I haven’t eaten for too long. The thing to do is to take some of the legal snack foods with me for such emergencies. And, I have some radishes in the fridge as well as Shasta Diet Cream Soda. Love it!
So, success at last and I’m going down, way down. I’m looking forward to mom getting worried that I’m looking gaunt and too thin, and Beau worrying that my head looks too big for my small body. I’d also like to go into Weight Watchers and have them tell me I don’t qualify to go on the program. Too thin.

Dad, that’s a lot of weight pretty darn fast.

Good job Dad. Eating too much when I get overly hungry in my biggest problem too.

In Madrid my third day. So far, so good. Love the food here and we’re walking about 10 miles per day so far.

Love the Spanish life style of walking and stopping in little bars to eat and drink. the food is simple and excellent. I’m not sure how much I’ve gained, but my waste is still down a full 2 inches.
