It is becoming quite evident to me that my current self imposed parameters of this 90 day challenge is not working out. Just like last summer weight creep has set in. The pants are getting tight. It's time to do something about it. I know what to do. Either I tighten up on the carbs (go Keto) or the pants will just keep getting tighter.

I need to do this challenge the way I did a few years ago when I was successfully knocking off 2 or 3 of them in a row. I'm thinking about doing a really limited diet for 90 days - 10 to 15 whole foods to choose from. I think strict and boring is exactly what I need right now. I'll be back here soon to start day 1.

stopped after session and ate a bag of spicy pickle chips standing outside driver door. The simple act of not eating while "in" car is helpful in pointing out the old habit. I love it!
