Our Manifesto - A Reminder

At the start of this enterprise in 2010, Over-Educated Mother and I drew up our ten point weight loss manifesto. We didn't do too well at sticking with it, so maybe we need to remind ourselves...:

1. Eat less food.
2. But eat everything we want to in moderation.
3. No deprivation allowed.
4. Eat slower and with more thought.
5. Don't think about food all the time: Menu plan at the start of the week.
6. Limit daily calorie intake to 2,200 in the first four weeks. Reduce to 2,000 daily in second four weeks; then 1,800 in last four weeks. See what happens.
7. Good breakfast is essential.
8. No more than one visit to a coffee shop per day.
9. Stick to a proper time table for meals: No late lunches or dinners. No snacks between snacks.
10. Exercise once a week at first rising to three times a week.

OEM, How would you say you are doing on these points right now?
