Back to my roots.

In the last few years I have over and over again gone from keeping track of my calories and recording everything I do, to deciding I don't need to do that and just work out hard and eat pretty good. I fail.

It hasn't been horrible, it's been a slow burn. Just getting a little worse day by day. I lose a little, I gain a little, slowly trending up over the last two years. Telling myself it's been primarily because of all the weight training.

But fat is fat. It's there, there's more of it now than there was. If I don't deal with it now I'm going to be back where I started. I am not willing to do that.

I am back on the wagon. I am recording, I am counting, I am quantifying, and now I am writing about it again.

I am floating between 218 and 222 right now. My goal is 180. I am going to hit that goal. I am going to do that by doing what makes sense for me. Part of that has always been writing about it. So I'm back doing it.
