This makes 4 weeks of logging my weight, food, and workouts.  My last free meal was during my ski trip on January 15th. so 5 weeks with no free meal. 

I've noticed the occasional craving for ice cream is less frequent now. 

I've also noticed my average blood pressure has dropped.  Again.  The highest I've seen in the last month is 125/70.  That was after two cups of coffee.  The lowest I've seen is 104/53.  That is the lowest reading I can remember ever having, and this at an age (43) where most people are seeing these numbers increase rather than decrease.

Perhaps there's something to this diet and exercise thing.  :)

On Thursday I pushed my lunch off so late that I decided to have a 24 hour fast.  It felt easy, and there wasn't much hunger prior to eating.  In fact, I had intended to eat at 6:30 which would have been 24 hours, but I was busy flying and then decided to pick up some groceries and cook, so I finally ate around 8:00pm.  I did not decrease the amount of food I would normally eat, I just ate it all in one sitting.
