Week 6 Update

I’m feeling a little ill, so this is going to be just a basic update on measurements. I do have a few notes:

• I’m really proud of myself for working on a foreign language four days this week, working on writing my book six days this week, and blogging every day (and occasionally twice a day)
• I fasted on Tuesday and plan on continuing to do that
• I’ve started drinking once a week or so socially
• I’m going to start using Khan Academy to reteach myself math. I don’t really want a career in math or anything but learning it (much like learning a foreign language, reading, writing, and meditating) is a way to exercise my brain and keep it healthy.
• I currently weigh less than I did when I was in the military… which is pretty cool
