Day 1: Redux

The start of Juice Fast II…  Day 1.
Morning weight:  319lbs.
I am now down “54/61”.  As in, 54lbs down from my fasting start weight:  373lbs, and 61lbs down from my highest weight ever (two days before I started Juice Fast I):  380lbs.  Today’s weight is a 4lbs increase from yesterday’s 315lbs.  My prediction after my “cheat” yesterday (gain 3lbs) was almost correct.
Today would have been the end of day 42 (6 weeks!) of my juice fast except for my cheat yesterday afternoon / evening.  When I got up, I decided to try to make it a hiccup and just start over.  The immediate goal remains the same:  day by day veggie juice fast with the current short term goal of 310lbs and a medium term goal of 299lbs.  At the moment, the plan is to stop the juice fast at 310lbs and diet to (and beyond) 299lbs.  The real goal remains to change my relationship with food and to get healthier by both a better diet (eating plan – NOT continuous dieting) and to vary my activities to be more active.  To modify the old weight loss axiom:  I need to “eat better and move more“.  If there is a silver lining to this “hiccup” it is there is no more need to count each day from the middle of the day.  I started “today” when I woke up.
I know a man called Michael Finnigan,
He grew whiskers on his chin-igan.
He shaved them off but they grew back in again.
Poor old Michael Finnigan, begin again.
So Day 1…  I begin again.  Day by day and / or 9lbs to go…
