I made it just under a month, and I am already annoyed with entering everything I eat and everything I do. I can't stop thinking about the Dali Lama and what he says: "Always thinking about your next meal when you don't have to is a waste of life." Though I can't do what he recommends, eat twice a day (like Buddhist monks) - because I am REALLY digging my concept of eating like I did in K-12 ( three times a day, no snacking; no alcohol - you were too young!; exercise 3-5 days a week), I will put to practice his other recommendation to eat what is available and a little bit of everything. I might just post this as the K-12 Buddhist diet.
I have to remember not too overeat, and don't eat too many sweets! They were a treat as a kid, and should be that way now. My mother limited them, now I have to limit them for me as I do for my kids.
