Nice start.

memyselfI · 01-15-2012, 09:14 AM

I haven't been on the scale and won't probably until June or later. I can report that size 6 pants, which did not fit before, now fit though a bit snug for my taste. I'm working on losing the muffin top now that the pants can button.

**Mr. Flopnuts** · 01-15-2012, 11:05 AM

I have no idea where I'm at. I haven't gotten back into the gym yet, but my eating has changed over the last week. I'm purposely wearing oversized clothes to keep me in the dark on it. I have my reasons for it. In any case, the goal is to get back in the gym this week andbget the fitness going. We'll see what happens.

**Buck** · 01-15-2012, 03:00 PM

Down to 282. 13 lbs gone.

I looked at a package of pizza. 350 calories per slice. I tried to get by on one piece and found I could do it.

Buck, explain low carb to me and a sample menu of what you eat in a day if you don't mind. I'm considering it.

Typical Day

-Breakfast: 3 eggs, 4 slices of Bacon
-Snack: 1 oz of Almonds
-Dinner: 1 Chicken Thigh or Breast or 10 oz steak with asparagus

Water all day, sometimes tea or coffee. Crystal Light occasionally.

**Buck** · 01-15-2012, 06:17 PM

Other days I only eat breakfast and have about 4-8 no carb cocktails at night, but I'm trying to limit that.

Funny story, I was at the bar the other night, and I was completely obliterated. I've been taking a supplement that helps decrease your appetite. The problem was that I wasn't feeling drunk. I drank about 7 cocktails before the supplement wore off and then I was drunk within seconds. I ended up drinking 2 or 3 more that night.

The bar closed and I stayed with the owner as she closed up. She made herself some kind of healthy choice microwaveable meal and she was like, here eat this. I ate all her green beans. I didn't eat anything else on the plate.

Glad I even have self control when I'm completely blitzed.

You're one up on me. I'll eat anything when I'm drunk. Any harm in diet soda? I've heard before thatzs a no-no.

A couple things that I have read is that Aspartame hinders weight loss.

Also, if you keep drinking it, even though it is no-carb, it makes you keep the desire for the carbs. It's a substitute, but it's sweet, so you'll keep wanting sweet shit.

It's loads better than non-diet though, and if you're a soda drinker, even if you're not dieting, you're way better off than drinking what basically amounts to pure sugar out of a can.

Big time soda drinker, but no regular in years. I drink Pepsi Max almost exclusively. I don't think it has aspartame in it, but I'm not sure. I'll look into it. Thanks.

It does.

I actually haven't had a soda in two weeks, the same amount of time I've gone without fast food.

Ironically it wasn't a conscious or pre-meditated decision this time. For whatever reason on New Year's Day I just stopped going out to eat. Wasn't planned, and hasn't even been a struggle so far. My caloric intake overall has to be way, way down so far for the new year.

I have a birthday in a month, we'll see if I can make it that long. I'm going to celebrate 38 by gorging on BBQ.

My birthday is next Saturday. Not sure what I'm going to do.

I might break the diet for one day, if only to be able to drink beer.
