Building my Instruction Manual

I realized last night, after almost 7 months into this Lean Eating journey that I was starting to phone it in a bit.  Of course, I realize these things at night, when I'm struggling to fall asleep (a lingering side-effect of traveling) and start to make grand plans on how I intend to fix things. 

So I realized that I stopped blogging early in my LE journey for a few reasons and none of them bad.
  • My past attempts at weight loss were always wrought with anxiety, emotional upheaval and emotional vomiting all over the place.  Not this time around.  If I wanted to, I could let all of the emotional bullshit derail me but I just don't need to wear that shirt this time around.  
  • My LE journey has been wonderful in that I've remained teachable, open to learning things differently, and probably the most patience I've allowed myself in any health-endeavor.

So I plan to use this place to sock away the lessons of LE so that I can come back and have a refresher if I need it.  I'm doing well; I've lost weight.  I'm stronger than I've been in my life in a while.  This journey, however, formally ends with PN sometime in June or July.  I'm still deciding if I want to sign up for another year.  The lessons are fantastic and the program is always changing.  My success encouraged at least two other people to sign up.  But I also hate to spend money.  So more to come on that.
