Always Hungry? Passing a Decade

I've been eating mostly according to the Almost Hungry? plan for about a month now.

I know that no specific number has more meaning than another, and 0 and 1 and 9 are all just digits. But, psychologically, the decade numbers take on increased significance when you are aiming for some target that is far away. So this morning when I weighed in at home at 270.5 pounds it was exciting. I knew that when I went to the gym I would weigh less after working out, since I sweat, and then I would weigh still less if I use the sauna for any significant time. After work out, (on a different scale, at the health club) I was 269.3, and after the sauna 268,8.  I can't remember the last time my body weight has been in this range.

I just got back from a week in Quebec (Quebec City and Montreal) where it felt as though I was eating huge volumes of food. But the difference is I was making choices, not just eating like a madman. The marketplaces were full of fresh fruits, vegetables, cheeses, and fish, and the restaurants offered alluring varieties of food. Today's weight is three pounds less than before I left.

I am quite happy with this plan, and am confident it is a lifestyle choice I'll be able to keep up with for a long time to come, as my weight comes down to a healthier level for my body. My one concern is that my body fat percentage, as measured by bio-impedance, seems to have crept up a bit over the week. I'll take measurements for a few more days before I get overly worried.
