500 days

I have now finished 500 consecutive days without going off my diet even
once.

Down 91.5 lb so far.

Just thought I'd mark the occasion! (^^

Doug - contratuations on another milestone.

Neil,
Not too many of us can stick to our diet as Doug has done. I certainly
couldn't do it. All you need to do is string together more "on" days
than "off" days. This is how I lost and have maintained my weight
loss.

Keep up the good work.

The only thing that matters is right now Neil, you can't change what
happened 2 minutes ago... only what you're doing now, and what you're
planning to do in the next 2 minutes.. )

You can't change the past, you can plan ahead, but you can only control
now.. Think in 2 minutes increments! ;o)

Congratulations!

Wow. That's truly impressive. Thanks for the inspiration.

500 days of doing what you intend to do, of keeping your commitment to
yourself, of achieving your daily goals. Wow.

I don't eat cake, really. But sometimes at the local family restaurant I
will have sherbet (57 calories) or ice cream (150 calories) for dessert.

Fortunately portions here in Japan tend to naturally be smaller, so you are
not faced with a 600-1000 calorie serving of ice cream.

Wow! 500 days! That's incredible! Amazing! I can't even go 2 weeks on
my diet.

Nice work, Doug.

What would you consider 'going off the diet'?
A 15% increase in caloric intake for the day? A 30%?
