mnealtx 0 #4 May 6, 2005 It may be "no loss", but it's "no gain", too!! Y'all can do it - I have faith in ya!! I just went back to the basics... plenty of water during the day, no sugars, no starches/bread/breaded stuff, plenty of salad/veggies, and portion control.... So far, so good... let's see if I can keep it going!Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #5 May 6, 2005 Ok, I quit. 5 weeks of waking up at the crack of dawn and running sprints and miles, doing ungodly numebrs of push-ups, sit ups, rowboats, squats and lunges, eating better, no alcohol, doing additional aerobics classes during the week, and I'm down 4 pounds. This seems to be a lot of work with little reward. I'm still doing another session of boot camp starting on Monday, but I'm not going to look at it as a way to lose weight. Otherwise, I'll have to do boot camps through the end of 2006 to get to my goal . . . and I want to drink every once in a while! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are doing great! Keep it up! Okay..... I'm checking in at...... no change. BUT.... I've been working out pretty hard and eating right.

Thank god for the new fountain flavors (Cherry Vanilla Doctor Pepper.) Develop a strategy for business lunches - order the most expensive dish on the menu (if they really wanted to impress me they should have bought me a Z1 instead of dinner) - eat two bites of each course, don't forget desert - when the server asks the first person at the table if they can remove the plate say "take mine too please", put your elbows on the table, stare into everyones eyes meaningfully and say "OK let's get down to business". Treat yourself at milestones. Every 5 lbs. we go to a nice restaurant for a celebration dinner. Margaret loves it, I love it, and Chef Henry loves it, Dianna the Hungarian server loves it, and since the portions are bigger than my shrunken capacity now is, Mickey the Dog loves it. Use logic - I drop (insert your weight here) pounds every time I jump - I can do this drop one pound a week thing. It helps me to remember what I looked like in my last video in a jump suit. Enjoy the moment - when your co-workers ask "You look thinner - are you ill?" Say YES and walk away looking sad. That also works for turning down the office complaints. P.S. No one at work knows I skydive. DON"T CARRY DOLLAR BILLS or CHANGE. It's hard to get snared by the candy machine if you don't have the right money. Do all the regular stuff on an as needed basis, ie. walk yes ride no, stairs yes elevator no, sex yes sleep no, etc. An the most effective thing - SCUBA Dive.
