"...to ensure you move towards your goal over the long term..."

Emphasis Mine.

This approach can help you lose X pounds or Kilos before that special date, but I believe that's short sighted. I'm using Data Driven Eating (Fasting - thanks Jey100, perfect!) to try to establish an approach to eating (or not eating) and nutrition to close out my life here on this tiny planet, in the middle of everywhere and nowhere at the same time

Cheers and have a great November session!
