Thanks, had the chocolate this morning and the vanilla at lunch. I like the chocolate a lot more than the vanilla.
Basically, everything tastes like crap. Just jump through whatever hoops your surgeon wants. After your surgery it won't matter anymore. You can do it!
Am I allowed to put sweetner like Splenda in coffee or does it have to be black!
Thanks John.
Couple of theories: 1. With the extra treadmill time I'm building up my legs and that is causing uptick on scales. 2. Doing yard work on Saturday I down a lot of water and SF popsicles for the hydration that may be factor too. Need to leave the SF candy alone!
Yeah, I get it. Last weekend, I attended a funeral for my friends wife. I put in a suit I bought over 2years ago and it was pretty tight. It helped me to refocus on food a bit this week.
Keep your head up and just take it a day at a time.

A little better with food. I was able to bookend the week with some quality bike rides, but could have done better through the week. I was able to ride my bike to work one day which substituted as a workout day. It was a little weird and uncomfortable riding a bike around all the scrap trucks and 18-wheelers that go in and out of the plant. I was also concerned about all the glass on the road causing flats.
I'm staring at a brutal August for traveling. Basically, I'll be traveling Sunday through Friday each of the next four weeks. Working out will be tough, and I'm not quite sure how I'm going to deal with food. More to come.
With unbelievable weather this weekend, It's great spending time outdoors. Have a great week everyone.

Last post, but that is from my Sunday Weigh in. I was down as low as 186 during the week, then had bad eating days on Friday and Saturday. Client dinner Friday night and a party at our house on Saturday. My doctor was very happy with my progress after 6 months. Suggested I increase my calorie count a bit - but definitely not as much as I allowed myself on Friday and Saturday. I've been good Sunday and Monday, will work on keeping it up.
Have a great week
Another crazy/insane week. I am still doing the diet where I'm stopping sugar at about 2pm and caffeine (dark chocolate, coffee, ice tea) by noon. Because of this diet...And I am eating less sugar, I am dropping the weight quickly. I also am drinking less coffee and eating less chocolate. I got on the scale yesterday I was about 197.5. I got on this morning I was 196. Was a very active day today...Weedeating, running errands for the handyman we had working for us. I got on the scale just now...I was 194.5!! What!!??!!! I don't eat much fried food...Some but not much. Then you cut out the sugar and are active it makes sense.
Again, I am mainly doing this for my sleep. My sleep has been very good the last few days. And I think dropping the sugar and caffeine has helped with the sleep...Which is very very important to me. One study said getting a good night sleep feels like winning the lottery. It is that important to me. But the strange benefit from this is also the weight loss. Go figure...
