So, as I last left off, I am not satisfied at the 230 the scale says I weight (well, it says I'm 235 right now. But I think it's just mad because I bought it Walgreen brand batteries instead of Duracell.) I felt I needed to change my diet. Not that the Caveman diet didn't work. It was just a bit too restricting. It was not something you could be on realistically. I did ok....but every now and then, I'd be force to cheat. I couldn't help it. This is probably the reason it took me so long to lose the last 30 lbs.
"So Esahn, what did you do? For the love of God, I need to know!!!" You're probably thinking right now. Well, I started reading this book called the Four-Hour Body. It's a great book filled with all kinds of really interesting things in the area of self improvement. I, obviously, gravitated to the the weight loss section. The author, Tim Ferriss, Describes an interesting diet called the "Slow-Carb Diet." It is a diet that involves: no breads, no fruit, and cheating once a week (Heaven!). There is more to it, but that is the gist of it.
I also began to tract my eating habits and exercise. I created a excel sheet with a list of things like my meals everyday, my exercise, how many meals I eat, etc. It is very helpful in remembering things to do and figuring if the things I do to lose weight actually work. Anyway, this is my plan so far. I was let you all know how things go as I progress.
Wish me luck!
P.S. Read Four-Hour Body. It's a great book.
