Diet Update

Fri, 05 Mar 2010 16:03:00 -0800

Ok so Back on January 7th two Friends and I made a weight loss bet; Most Weight Lost by Feb 28th. Losers pay winner $100 Each. It was pretty successful for me, and I think they both enjoyed the extra motivation, I know I did.

Final Stats for me was 17.2lbs of fat in 6 weeks no bad all in all, especially since I can count at least 10-12 different nights out partying, and eating pretty bad

A few people have asked how I did what I did… so here it is.. I’m lazy and like quick results so I went with the quick / easy weight loss + High Intensity Training (15 min twice a week).

I try to follow these rules

1200-1400 Calories Days
No Carbs after 3pm
5-6 evenly spaced meals/snacks
Lots of Water
Don’t drink your calories (Pop, booze, beer = bad)*

So the easy (read lazy) way to do it is with Weight loss shakes and protein bars. Now I know neither of those sound all that good but in all reality I’ve found some that are at Costco, Kirkland weight loss shakes and NuGo protien bars.

The schedule is

Breakfast   7:30am - Shake (230 Calories)
Snack       10:00am - Bar (170 Calories)
Lunch 12:30pm - Kirkland Shake (230 Calories)
Snack       3:00pm - Bar (170 Calories)
Dinner       5:30am - Something from the list below aimming for 400ish calories
———————————————
5 Meals - 1200 Calories

Healthy Dinners

Taco Salad
Chicken Breast
Salads
Steak

Some other great tips are on Tim Ferriss’s blog - 20lbs of fat in 30days

Anyway it was a fun and productive experiment, and I pocketed $200, We just started round 2, weight in date is May 1st, lets see if i can drop 20 more pounds.

*Yes I do have drinks but I’ve tried to skip mixed drinks or modify them, Vodka + diet tonic or crown on the rocks vs. a jack n coke.

So the new 300C SRT8 I just bought a few weeks back got smashed the other day while it was parked in front of the house. I think it is shaping up to be an uninsured teen glad I have uninsured / under insured motorist..
