JUST CHECKING IN...

As you can tell by the months and months between this post and the last one, I have not posted for awhile.  I thought I would come on and post a quick update, in case anyone is interested.

I've been off the wagon just a bit in the past four months.  Nothing serious, but not being as careful as I should.  I have put on a few pounds, so I decided to go back to tracking again just to get, well, back on track.  For the past two days, I have been eating like this:

1555 calories
135g fat
57g protein
28g carbs

That's around 78% fat, in case that matters to anyone and they don't want to do the math.

In the past two days, I have lost 2 pounds.  The lowest I had gotten in 2012 was 136.4, I think.  It was hard to stay there, and I finally decided that if I could stay below 140 and maintain there, I would be doing well.  And I did for awhile, and then I went on vacation.  I gained eight pounds, and most of that in the last 2 days of the 13 day trip.

Most of the trip, I stayed true to my low carb lifestyle, and the last two days, I said heck with it and ate badly.  I gain weight really fast when I eat badly.  Obviously.

So now I am back to 143 pounds and working to get back below 140 again.  I have not taken my measurements.  I'll probably do that on Sunday.

That's all for now.  Thanks for reading!
