Day 31

Jack:

It's been a week since I last posted...but I've been reading the other blogs...thanks to all of you because every time I read them I feel more energized to keep going with this thing. I've been feeling really good physically and emotionally and have been allowing myself to spend many hours a day at the piano. I'm still working for the next month, but there's less pressure now that I'm leaving, so I've been taking advantage of that.

I've been feeling a little...how shall I put this..."bored" I guess is the right word, with the feast. It feels a bit mundane at this point. It's like I'm used to feeling pretty good and frankly I would like to eat some food. But, alas, I know this is doing good things for my body and, well, I have lost over 25 pounds which I'll admit to liking. And I really don't want to lose the feeling of camaraderie with all the others out there doing this right now so I'm going to keep going for the time being. Neither Jill or I want to stop because of some semi-conscious, addictive habit. We hope to do it when it feels right and makes sense. Anyway, thanks again to all of you writing blogs, commenting and just reading...I'm not sure I'd still be doing this without you, as great as this has been. Oh, the human condition (or at least mine).
