So here we go again boys and girls, I’m going to start a drastic diet to lose weight. I will keep checking back for updates
So starting tomorrow, I will be starting on a liquid diet for the next week. This is a test run since this stuff is uber expensive, but if I can stick to it for a week then its worth it. I should be able to reasonably drop a minimum of 1-3 pounds a week. Hopefully more as I will be adding in lots of cardio aka treadmill time this week also.
As a person that doesn’t eat out of hunger, but out of boredom and the availability of food/snacks I’m hopeful that this diet will be successful. I’m just under the big 400 and I see this as part of a last ditch effort. I would really prefer not to die at 36yrs old or start getting fat people problems like diabetes, heart problems and random other fat people ailments. I’ve been extremely lucky so far as being a ‘healthy’ fat guy since my labs always seem to come back perfect. I figure I can’t wait for my health to deteriorate before I actually do what needs to be done.
So the plan is this:
3 MET-RX Meal Replacement shakes a day. (breakfast/lunch/dinner)
That’s it for the next 7 days. Total calories each day should be around 800-1000. Protein intake will be 114 grams per day. Now I might add in a small salad by the end of day 2-3 depending on how my mind and body adjust to this new diet.
I know some of you will doubt this is the best idea, but let me assure you this is the best plan of action for the current situation. Like I said this is just a test. If it works, great. If it doesn’t well at least I tried and I will just go back to the drawing board. I just can’t keep doing what I’m doing which clearly has not been working.
That’s all for now, but will post again tomorrow with how the first day went.
