closing in on the three-month goal

Very brief post: I’m closing in on my three-month goal, set just before Thanksgiving. As I’ve mentioned before,  the goal was very modest–a six-pound fat loss. Note that I don’t say "weight loss": I’m interested in losing fat, not merely "weight," which could be lean body mass (muscle). I shudder to think.

In any case, I’m now more than 70 percent of the way there. Woo-hoo!

Would’ve gotten there a lot faster if I’d started counting calories sooner.

But that’s not a failure, as Tom Venuto would say: It’s a result. In other words, a "learning experience."
