A little late and a lot short of my daily goal because a) Tucson Meet Yourself interfered with lunch break writing and b) I was whisked away from the bus stop to dinner & a movie with the wife and didn't see home until well after 9pm. So, actually, that's a pretty decent number considering.
IFing is going really well. I think the reason why I actually kind of enjoy intermittent fasting is that after finally eating breakfast, subsequent hunger is so diminished throughout the rest of the day that I completely forget to snack. Compare to my usual mode of finishing all my snacks and my breakfast and my lunch before 1pm on workdays and, well, it's obvious why I already feel a less puffy. It has also meant that I haven't been finishing my lunch, but I'm not sure if that's the IFing or if we just had really big lunches this week. I guess I'll find out next week as I continue this experiment.
THIS WEATHER IS AWESOME. It's like, BOOM, autumn! Granted, it's supposed to warm back up over the next week, but this is definitely our first "cold" snap. 50 degrees this morning! Had to wear socks! Finally!! It's certainly the impetus for my need to put up all autumn decorations ever today. And why I dumped the boxes of winter clothes out and began putting away summer clothes. And why I want to make apple pie (PIE IS GOING TO HAPPEN). And why I also want to make all the squash ever. And why I want to bundle up in jackets and sip hot cider and watch the sun set. Man. Have I mentioned how much I love autumn?
