In the last week I've burned through all the notes, so if I repeat
something I apologize.
I've learned a few things in the last two months of my diet and
I'd like to share them with all of you.
1. I've been unable to stay at my goal weight of 192. I'm still
losing and I'm in week 4 of maint. Why? Because I over-compensate
for my intake of food and this is dangerous because I'll pay later.
If the body gets used to taking in 1000 cals/day and you don't build
up gradually, it begins to store the extras like it used to. So
eat properly when you reach your goal, don't undereat out of fear.
2. TV eating is a conditioned response. I eat away from the box
now because I found that when I eat in front of the tube I get into
a mental frame of mind that says, "you're in front of the TV, time
to eat again!!!", and I'm hungry.
BTW, Paul.....Do you still live in WB? I now reside in Oakdale.

Interesting to read your advice under item 1. As someone who will
be starting "maintenance" soon (maybe as soon as tomorrow -- stay
tuned to the "Progress" note), it's something I'll definitely want
to keep in mind.
BTW, I no longer live in West Boylston -- however, I did grow up there
and my parents still live there.
