Day 8:

Today has been fine....breakfast and lunch were good. I had a nice snack this afternoon and that was good as well. I ate some yogurt (never been a big fan) and I didn't think I'd like it....but again. I was surprised to find out that I did indeed enjoy it. I wonder if it's because I'm just so hungry that I'll eat anything? Whatever the case may be.... I'm getting used to this diet. I'm on my 2nd week and hopefully soon I won't even think about my diet and just eat right and follow the plan.

From time to time I find myself looking into my trusty daily program journal to make sure I'm eating everything it tells me too. Sooner or later I'm going to just have it etched in my brain and I won't have to use the book.

I went grocery shopping yesterday and restocked the necessary items by diet calls for on a daily basis. Stuff like spinach salad (any salad will do, but I wanted spinach leaves), yogurt, milk, fruit, vegetables, etc... If I continue this pace I should lose it all quite quickly.

Question of the Day....

And the winner is....

After careful deliberation, I have come to a conclusion...

The winner for the April 2nd 2007 post is.....

Kevin (again) with....

Faced with the realization that he would have to show up to work in the same clothes as he wore the day before, and knowing that no one would believe he was able to get lucky, Kevin took this photo as proof of his conquest. He thought, "she may have been a porker, but look at that set of tits."

Honorable mention goes to Liam with...

For his next movie-- set in a post-nuclear-apocalyptic dystopia-- Jim Carrey gains 23 pounds, shrinks 23 inches, and dons a sweater with 23 red lines. During the 23 months of filming, Jim's girlfriend, Jenny McCarthy, grew 23 nipples.

Day 7:

Today has been busy...I mean, it is opening day in baseball. But I have not gone away from my dietary plans. I had a typical breakfast and lunch along with a decent snack. I plan on going to the grocery store later on this afternoon after work to buy more vegetables, fruit and protein. I can still say that this diet isn't all that hard to keep up with. Once I kick in the exercise I should be well on my way.

Stay tuned....

Sunday Morning Weigh-In...

I started the diet weighing approx. 267 and I knew that to get down to 210 was going to be very tough. I haven't hit the scale since I started so I knew I was either going to be please, or pissed. After 5 days of dieting I did it.

262 is what it said.... I lost 5lbs in 5 days!!! Unbelievable!! I doubt I'll be able to stay on this pace but I'm going to try. If I can get down to 250 by the end of next week I'll be stoked!!

Day 5 and 6 (weekend)

Well, the weekend came and went without any serious hunger pains. Friday night I thought was going to be tough, but I ended up feeling really good about my order. Let me explain.... Friday night was Dave's 30th b-day and a bunch of us were going to eat at a Japanese Steakhouse. I knew the food was going to be delicious and who in the world doesn't order a surf and turf combo. What was I to do?? Once the menu came I saw all the goodies... lobster, shrimp, chicken, fillet, etc... Was I going to have enough discipline? Here's what I did, I ordered Tuna Sashimi appetizer and ordered Vegetable Delight for my entree. I was pleased with my order but was it going to fill me up? In fact, it did...and it was great! I passed the test...went to a big time restaurant and didn't get sucked in to order something unhealthy. NuTrav is on his way......

The rest of the weekend was standard order. A lot of water and all Nutrisystem style meals.

Day 4 Snack

Snack today was nothing special...but nevertheless needed! I had a couple paper thin slices of fat-free turkey (didn't know there was fat in turkey) and an orange. TASTY? You betcha!

Nothing else as of now....

Day 4 Lunch

I had the worst meal so far by Nutrisystem; their ham and beans soup. It was runny and very unpleasant but the big guy ate it. I also had the usual lunch staple of a salad and slice of turkey w/ a piece of bread. That part was fine, but the ham and beans soup was gross.

I've finished 4 glasses of water and I need 4 more. I'm going to eat a very light snack so dinner tonight will be better for me since I'm eating out. I plan on skipping the dessert so I can flush down a few Stoli Vodka's. Big man's drinking tonight....

Question of the Day....

A lawyer can solve 32 math riddle per hour, and his friend Sam takes three hours to solve the same number. If they both work on them, how long will it take for them to solve 32 math riddles?

Kevin (again...2 in a row).

After waking up next to a fat chick for the last time, Timmy thought, "What the hell Why don't I save myself $100 buying drinks and make my own fat chick."

Kevin crushed this one... Another great caption.

Stay tuned for the next one.

Day 4 Breakfast

I'm passing all kinds of tests with flying colors. Came into work today and went to McDonald's with some friends. I was very tempted to order something like I normally do, but instead....did not! I just ordered a diet coke. I was pleased with myself....it wasn't that hard. I really think I'm turning a corner. The old Trav would have ordered 2 bacon, egg and cheese biscuits...but not the NuTrav! No SIR!!!

This morning I had a breakfast bar (granola) an orange and a slice of bread. Now it's time for the water and then lunch.

Day 3 Dinner

Dinner was good.... I had an entree (beef with pasta and mushroom sauce) some celery, some strawberry's and i added 1/2 cup of my own pasta. It was pretty filling.....

I then ate a dessert which was a chocolate chip granola bar and went to bed. No hunger pains.

Tomorrow night will be the test. I have a birthday party for a good friend and we're going to a Japanese steak house.

Stay tuned....
