Day 8…the man diet

Day 8, a week ago today I started the new and improved man diet. The new and improved part is that I’m actually dieting…

And what have I lost in 7 days of actual dieting?

10 pounds! I’m at 236.6 pounds. Half way to my July goal. Hell I may up the goal to 30 pounds….

My motivation this time around is simply looking back to the past…

This little treat right here is from late summer 2009, a trip to the cottage.

I’ll likely be out there again this coming weekend but I don’t think the image would be quite the same. I’m no thin man in this photo, but from the looks of it I’m under 220.

That’s just 5 years ago!

Terrifying. Hey, 20 pounds from now I’ll be pulling that off again.

No poker tonight, sorry Beagle. I’m on a run here. I only get one cheat day a week and I’m saving it for Sunday…Merrickville Car show and the FIFA final. If the Dutch can pull it off today we’ll have a good time at Derek’s…if not I’ll head over to Barrhaven,

I’m sure I can face down eggrolls right now, hell I haven’t had a coffee in a week, but I really just don’t feel like punishing myself.

Yesterday I ate 3 eggs, a nice fat juicy steak, asparagus, a pickle and some almonds. Spread out between breakfast and dinner that is…I did feel a bit famished around lunch but I got over it.

I’m expecting my fat friends won’t be pointing and laughing any longer…nope. Please tiny baby Jesus… let me not turn to bon bons.

If merely ’feeling good’ could decide, drunkenness would be the supremely valid human experience. William James

I knew it!

Beauty day…get out into that sunshine! Cheerio
