Back in the saddle

No, I haven't fallen off NoS principles, but I haven't been posting (which may or may not help others, but most definitely helps me), and I've been allowing lots of diet-think to fester in my head. Ideas like deciding I should eat at certain times of the day, without fail. And I should cut out all but non-vegan food. "Improving on" NoS, if you will. That's what always gets me in trouble. I aim for the optimal, absolutely best, healthiest, live-forever diet, without admitting to myself that no matter how perfect such a diet may be, I'm unwilling to stick to it. I just darn well don't want to.
I can also get myself bent out of shape worrying about eating beef (mad-cow disease) or fowl (avian flu), or fish (mercury), not to mention panicking over sugar, salt and additives.
NoS had brought me PEACE - for the first time in decades of dieting - but it's so difficult not to fall back into diet-think. Any wise counsel would be most appreciated.

PS I'm going to start posting in my daily check-in again, listing everything I eat. It helps me to have somewhere to go to be accountable on a daily basis.
