Today was another wonderful day. Temptations all over (bagels, donuts and pastries, etc. all over the building) but I only cursed under my breath once. My legs are very sore from all the working out (I can tell the stronglifts program works) but I still managed a good cardio workout today. Also took the kids … Continue reading Day 18… (Forgot to click “POST”!!)

Day 17…
Well, I got hungry for the first time in a while... but it only lasted for like 4 minutes. Then it went away. It was pretty strange, but I guess it will happen sometimes. I really don't eat a whole lot so I guess I shouldn't be surprised if I do get hungry. But if … Continue reading Day 17…
Day 16…
Just a normal day today. I ate some leftover Mac, Cheese & Ham Bake for lunch today even though I really didn't want to. I also REALLY hate wasting food. Gonna take some time to get used to making smaller portions in general. Previously, the four of us at home - plus lunch the next … Continue reading Day 16…

Pizza - Pizza was brought into work one day as a reward for increased scores in our department. Instead of having the typical 4 or more pieces, … Continue reading Temptations!
Day 15…
Today was a good day and a good test of my willpower. We went to Golden Corral (funny, since I wrote it a goodbye letter recently) because it has been on the menu for longer than I've been changing my life. I did great, though, I feel! I knew what to eat, how much of … Continue reading Day 15…
Miracle Noodles
So in yesterday's meals you may have noticed the Sharataki Miracle Noodles that my wife and I had for dinner. Let me go into what these are. Miracle Noodles are a noodle made from the Konjac plant and is pretty much made up of nothing but dietary fiber called glucomannan. This plant is harvested, ground into … Continue reading Miracle Noodles
Day 14…
Today was the first time I felt like I was forcing myself to eat even though I didn't feel like it. I had very few "net" calories today even though I ate at times I didn't feel hungry. Kinda worrisome but... I don't know what to do. Feel fine, loving life, loving wife, hating sunburn. … Continue reading Day 14…
Day 13…
So today was a lazy day. Didn't do a whole lot in the workout area, but also didn't eat very much at all. I had someone suggest that I drink a protein drink to add to my intake if I'm not hungry. I may have to do that because I really don't get hungry and … Continue reading Day 13…

Well, another week down and another drastic change. If I keep losing like this I may have to up my food intake. But for now I'm happy!
