216.4, 216.8, 213.8

A bit of a dip from yesterday to today. Eating a better breakfast I’m sure is helping. When I get up early or have gotten little sleep, it’s too easy to allow yourself a less-than-stellar breakfast to make you feel better. Food should not serve like an emotional band-aid. So I’ve reigned that in for breakfasts, which is key, as I’m usually in a better presence of mind for lunch or dinner, but first thing in the morning I can slip up.

I’m still challenge getting myself to the gym. My girlfriend being gone doesn’t help, but I can’t continually rely on external motivation to get myself to do things. Still, I will get that back on track soon. I’m planning on going Saturday morning before the inevitable horrors of Saturday night’s concert and Super Bowl Sunday. Assuming I can maintain this weight loss, that means I’m right about 1 week behind my original goal. I think if I’m strict about getting to the gym, I can get right back on schedule.
