Carefree Communications

On January 1st I blogged about the fact that I was cutting back on eating and would be loosing 52 pounds in 5 months.  That will need to be just over 10 pounds a month to work out to hitting 210 as my target weight from my starting weight of 262.  I also mentioned that Neil Franklin had bet me 200 dollars that I would fail.  Today is my first update and despite Neil attempting to sabatoge me at every opportunity I have done quite well.  The results,

• Starting Weight - 262
• Feburary 1st Weight - 244
• Total weight loss in Month one - 18 Pounds

So what have I been doing different?  Not much so far just the following…

• Light vs. heavy beer
• Salads and soups for most lunches (Campbles Healthy Choice is great)
• No big portions of bread, potatoes, rice or other starches
• No candy, sugar, etc
• I have been drinking fruit smoothies for breakfast about 3-5 days a week
• Dinner has been what ever I want other then the exceptions mentioned above

So thus far I am ahead of the game yet the first month is always easiest, which is why I did not start exercising yet.  That starts today from Feb 1 -Feb 14 I will do 10 minutes once a day on my Elliptical Trainer then from Feb 15 - Feb 28 I will do 10 minutes twice a day and I am adding some basic supliments.  I will report in on March 1 with results and may comment on Neil’s treachery during the month of February.

All I know so far is pants I had custom fit for a meeting I had in November with Trump University will now fall completely off if I don’t have a belt on.  I must say that feels pretty good.
