<h1 style="text-align: center;">[&nbsp;after&nbsp;90 days ]&nbsp;</h1>
[ PLAN ]
I&nbsp;have embarked on a&nbsp;<a href="/view/article?id=5166" target="_blank">no-sugar diet</a>* with the objectives of 
&gt; ] losing approximately 50#, 
&gt; ] changing the way that&nbsp;I eat to maintain that loss, 
&gt;] curing my skin condition.&nbsp;
This is a summary of the various RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS that I have come to&nbsp;after&nbsp;90 days on this diet plan.
[ RESULTS - TLDR]
DIET
<ol>
<li>

</li>
</ol>
FITNESS 
<ol>
<li>] PERIOD RATING = Good &nbsp;- I believe that my Fitness regime has made a HUGE difference, If I ate what I ate and I never exercised or only exersized marginally, I expect that the progress would be significantly less</li>
</ol>
HEALTH 
<ol>
<li>] PERIOD RATING = OK - While it is "Somewhat Better" it is not cured</li>

[ REVIEW - DIET - PLAN vs ACTUAL = ]
<ol>
<li>] COMPARING - THE&nbsp;RESULTS&nbsp;to&nbsp;THE PLAN, lets summarize/highlight&nbsp;the good, the bad and the ugly&nbsp;- compare what you ACTUALLY ate to what you SHOULD HAVE eaten. How close did you come to sticking within the guidelines of your DIET PLAN</li>
<li>] + PLANNED - RESULTS -&nbsp;<a href="/view/article?id=5188" target="_blank">weights and measures</a>&nbsp;-after 90+ days I am down 21.0 # total to&nbsp;242.5 #(as of&nbsp;# 2016-10-03) from my initial starting point of 263.5# on 2016-06-25.&nbsp;I had 3 weeks of losses totalling 10.5#, 1 week of gains (+5.0 #*) and 1 week of n/c ( averaging - 1.1#* week)&nbsp;NOTE this period included 1 week of vacation, which was also a vacation from this DIET. &nbsp;</li>
<li>] STATUS milestone # 2/5 &nbsp;(holding)&nbsp;</li>
<li>] PERIOD RATING = Good&nbsp;</li>
<li>] # 5417 -&nbsp;<a href="/view/article?id=5417" target="_blank">DIET-no-sugar-UPDATE-004-daily-summary</a>&nbsp;- a daily record of everything i ate during this period, + Health, + Fitness</li>
<li>] well its been 90+* days and I am still chugging along ?slowly? down the DIET track.&nbsp;</li>
<li>*] the + days is because of vacation, timing&nbsp;</li>
<li>] I have made a fairly good chunk of progress&nbsp;</li>
<li>] BUT I still have a FAIR ways to go, ...&nbsp;</li>
<li>] REMINDER - its a marathon, NOT a sprint, ..</li>
<li>] RE: ambitous target - ] its going to get tougher to lose, aka the last 20 will be harder to lose and take longer then the first 30&nbsp;</li>
<li>] I can't honestly say its been a strict/restricted diet, there has NOT been much that I have missed out on - could have gotten better RESULTS if I had been a little more consicentous</li>
<li>] REMINDER - the IDEA at the outset was to change your eating habits/develop a sustainable&nbsp;</li>
<li>] REMINDER - eating carrot sticks and salads, (steamed chickend and brown rice) only for 6 months might be more successfull short term, but would definetly NOT be sustainable long term</li>
<li>] CONCERN - fresh fruit season is over and our copious supply of ( peaches, nectarines, plums, apples, cherries, blueberries ) is pretty much done. the next month or two should be OK with (apples, pears, ) but after that (DEC - APRIL)&nbsp;</li>
<li>] REVISION going to stop reporting the daily records in the upd - this will save a bit of time and&nbsp;</li>
<li>] I will do another update report after ( ] after-120 UPD 005 4 months, ] after-150 UPD 006 and ] after-180 UPD 007)</li>
<li>] vacations really kicked your diet butt, so to speak, a couple of times.&nbsp;</li>
<li>* = estimate</li>

<ol>
<li>]&nbsp;SUMMARY - review of changes to condition. - REVIEW 90 days in,</li>
<li>]&nbsp;PROGRESS - skin is looking much better on the front after resuming treatment on a consistent basis</li>
<li>]&nbsp;CONCERNS - improvement is topical, when the treatments stop, the issue will return.&nbsp;</li>
<li>]&nbsp;CONCLUSION - carry on with the current TRT strategy, need to keep digging (research) for ideas on what could be the underlying cause,&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
&nbsp;
[ CONCLUSIONS = ] + REMINDERS&nbsp;

<li>&nbsp;</li>
