No movement on the scale today. Not unexpected after the drop realized yesterday. Got a walk in yesterday that felt good. I probably need to get some walking shoes. Swiped by son's (8th grader and 6'3") basketball shoes that he outgrew last year to walk in which are ok for the job but not optimal. Also took a good ride on the bike and it really struck me that with the loss so far I'm very much getting back to feeling myself again.

As it relates to IF… I’m finding it interesting that I’m learning when I’m actually hungry (when the bod need fuel) vs. feeling hungry as a pavlovian response to a time of day or as a coping response to the crap life throws one’s way. It’s not I don’t feel the latter non-hungry hungries, but I’m beginning to differentiate the feelings and act appropriately as it relates to my goals. I also find I’m quicker to reach that satisfied/full point when eating which is nice since I hate that overstuffed feeling even though I did that to myself regularly before kicking myself in the ass and getting back to healthier habits. I can see how doing OMAD would work for me but feel I would need to reorganize worklife to consistently have a much bigger midday meal. I am going to try it on my next business trip just (usually a week long) to see how I fair.

Time for some tea (gunpowder green) to get the day going. Another walk and another ride in the plans for the day as well as doing some work and a little gaming. Remember every little step forward is a victory, so take that next little step and keep moving forward to what you want for yourself.
