Beautiful day! Today's the day to uncover the pool heater, clean the filter, etc. in preparation for getting into the pool...within the week, I think! It will finally stay warm enough overnight that the heat put into the pool won't get chilled away by the night air. We do not have a pool cover, so the night temps should be in the mid-60's or, ideally, about 70 degrees. Looks like we'll get a shot at that this week!

Over the past couple weeks, I've embarked on yet another little experiment. I'm not recording my foods but AM paying close attention to true hunger. Eventually, I hope to transition off of food recording completely, as I don't believe recording every thing, every day, is a "forever" plan. I certainly don't take this step lightly!! I'd NEVER consider it in mid-journey.....or even late-journey. As recent as a couple months ago, I toyed with this and it didn't work. I wasn't quite ready to devote the real focus and attention to it that I need to. And, yes, I believe that NOT recording needs as much discipline (to be successful) as recording.

We'll see how this goes. I've recorded for a few days, then not done so for a few days, then gone back to recording. I'll probably continue to record as I feel the need/urge. I see this as a part of Maintenance. After 3 years, if I don't have a general idea of what I can eat on a daily basis, there's something wrong - LOL!!!

Over this past week or so, I've also dropped a portion of the EFAs I take. Over most of my journey, I took a fish oil capsule that provided about 1g. Because my doctor recommended more last summer, I upped the dose to 3g. Since I did that, however, my weight loss has been sluggish....not all due to the EFA, I'm sure, but still sluggish. About 10 days ago, I dropped back to just the 1g.

So, over the last 10 days, I "feel" that my weight/body is closer to being back on track. Maybe this is wishful thinking??? But, it HAS been an interesting adventure, really focusing on just eating when I'm truly hungry. Maybe I'm eating less.....maybe more.....maybe it's different on different days....not really sure. But I think this is the way things are supposed to work.
