Aiming for my year end goal

Thus far I have dropped 22 pounds. I’m finding it easier to make intelligent food choices as I get into the habit of eating good food. Things that I used to crave (especially KFC) now kind of creep me out.
My aim now is to drop an additional 8 pounds by the end of the year and make it an even 30 pounds lost. The going has slowed down as my body has become accustomed to the reduced calorie intake. The Christmas season looms ahead with its threat of over eating. The calorie threat here lies in eating out too much.
The benefits of my weight loss are becoming more and more obvious. I have increased energy, better flexibility, and a happier digestive system.
The next trick is to cut back even more on the red meat. I’ve really reduced it, but can still do better. And lunch will have to go more in the direction of salads and fruits and away from processed cheeses and luncheon meats. When I do eat protein it will have to be canned fish.
I’m optimistic.
