My log got boring, which was the actual win

Systems brain here. I stripped my reta log down to three inputs: protein floor, sleep, and whether I walked after dinner.

Four weeks of that, and the only dramatic thing is how unremarkable the line is. Down 11 pounds since early April, no cliff, no rebound.

Hunger is quieter, but the bigger win is that I stopped negotiating with the pantry at 9 p.m. because the decision was already made at lunch.

Appetite still shows up; it just doesn't get a vote. The odd part: fewer columns means I actually update the thing.

Anyone else find that tracking less made the trend easier to trust?
