found this on a web site today, it means a lot to me to think about this all the time.
“Be wary of any food that has been created by humans rather than nature. The ingredients on the labels of processed foods, such as the average cracker or potato chip, are mind-boggling. If I don’t know what it is, it’s not going into my body.”
Diets are all a bit of a wash to me. Plain and simple it’s not the diet that fixes the issue, the behavior fixes the issue. All the diets out there resolve the issues that got us into out mess. It’s about food and exercise. I don’t care how you break it down that is the core of every diet.
I have been reading about every other diet out there and found THE ABS DIET, and was intrigue because of the step promises and the hype around it. I am considering doing it for two weeks and see if it holds up to it’s name and claims.
I assure you I am still here and doing good. It’s been a busy time @ work but I will be posting some more stuff here soon. Just upgraded the site to WordPress 3.0. Let me know if you find errors.
Just when you thought it was safe to drink something you thought was “healthy”, think again…..including a water drink. WATER! Just more proof companies DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH. They care about you CASH!
LINK: List of the 20 worst drinks out there.
I am not going to tell you who the winner was but I can tell the list looks delicious. I am a label reader now and I know I don’t like more than about 10g of sugar in my drinks or artificial sweeteners.
Today is indeed a BIG DAY. Two great bits of information. We will start with mine, which is pretty good but not super news and then onto Kelly’s SUPER BIG FUN TIME news.
David : I am officially according to the US Government, not obese anymore. I am just Over-Weight. Today with my new weight of 214 pounds I am now 29.8% fat which is only over-weight. Been looking forward to this day for a while now. Next big mile stone is 15 pounds away which leads me to our next big bit of news.
Kelly: Today when Kelly got on the scale the first digit did not have to work as hard to display a number “2″ instead Kelly being very green used less power and only made it display a “1″. Kelly is now as she puts it “A Buck & Change”. Way to go! Sets us up for a very good weekend and more weight loss.
As a side note, we walked a mile last night and it did not seem to impact the weight loss at all. I was a little more hungry than I think I should have been at bed time but not in any pain other than my lower back which is killing me but that is another story.
I was looking around FatSecret.com today and found this little tidbit of info. Seems of all the people on the site the hCG protocol seems to help people drop the most weight of any of them. The Slim fast diet seems to help them gain weight.
I finally was able to get Kelly to join SparkPeople ( a site I now hate) and have found FatSecret.com and I love it. I love it for a few reasons. First let me tell you what I hate SparkPeople’s site.

Day 2 of my VLCD and I am down 6.8 pounds from my LOAD WEIGHT, not my start weight. I wanted to get a good idea as to how much I am dropping from my LOAD WEIGHT. The week before my LOAD was not a good week food wise. I did this last time we started and let myself kind of roam before the load. I have now learned something and will work on it next time.
I am a fat burning machine this time around and pretty happy so far. I am off to a better start than last time and I am going to be aggressive about my weight this time. There are stalls in the diet and I only had one last time, but this time when I get one of those .2 pound loss day I am kicking an ALL APPLE day and getting things moving again. I want to drop another 30+ pounds this round and will stop at nothing to get that done. I also need to be off P2 in time for some events here in town so I don’t have any time to goof off or not loss weight.
Hope you all are having a good day and please feel free to post. Kelly is doing well and hanging with me on the weight. She is down 6.6. Not bad at all. I will post more when we hit mile stones…10, 15, 20, 25, and 30.
I am looking for guest posters too who are doing hCG and are willing to share.
Today is the start of my second round of hCG for me and Kelly. We have two load days, then back to VLCD and losing about a pound a day for the next 30 days. I have said before I want to drop another solid 30+ pounds this round and I am going to do it. I have can get more I will take it. I know what I am in for this time so it should be pretty easy.
We are back for our second round of hCG and VLCD this weekend. It’s a load weekend and I am going to do it up like a professional loader!
This next round I am looking for a solid 30+ pounds again. Kelly is looking for the same as well. If I reach my goal I will be under 185 and that has not been the case since high school. (1988 or 1990). That would be amazing.
After this next round I have been promised I can go shopping for new clothes too. That is a good reason to be excited too. I would encourage all of you out there to post comments so we can help each other out.
