Good Food – Bad Food

admin

So I started a new health/fitness/diet program.  I’m mostly making it up by myself but it goes something like this: Get up at 5:50AM and exercise, wait for at least an hour after exercising to eat breakfast, eat normal food but try to avoid candy and snacking on carbs, make sure I stop eating for the day at 6:30PM.

So far it’s working. I have lost about 2 pounds each week.  And I have been more sore than any time I can remember.  I haven’t even been pushing the exercise too hard.  I guess I am too old and it’s been too long since I last did weights.  So mostly I do weight lifting and stairs in my house.  I haven’t been to the gym and I am pretty sure I won’t.

I also set up a good Pandora station for exercising.  It only took me about 30 songs to get to the point where it only plays songs with the right tempo.

The hardest part I have to say is not getting extra treats just because the grocery store has a good deal on Reese’s Peanutbutter Cups.  But then I find something like this.

Parsons Nut Roll

What was I supposed to do? I had to try it.  This is the size that other king size candy bars meant to be but somehow failed.

Parsons Nut Roll - King size done right.

But the important thing!!! I am still down 9 pounds since I started this thing.
