So it had been a while since I checked. Last night I got on the scale. This was not good. 30lbs since my surgery.

So time for diet and exercise. Not much aerobic exercise I can do right now, so next pay day I'm getting a trainer. I'm going to keep the exercise simple... lots of time on the bike. Plus some sit ups and a small amount of weights. Mostly though the bike. But diet... I'm thinking for me it would be easiest to basically cut out dinner. I'm not disciplined enough to eat well every 3 hours. I'll see if I can't get my intake down to 1000-1500 calories/day. Since I'm going to try cutting back I'm going to have to hit up a multi-vitamin, and I'll probably get on a fiber supplement as well since it helps burn fat. Maybe later I'll be able to change it up to every 3 hours.

60 lbs to go.

Good for you mike! I’ve been dieting and lost 10 lbs in 3 weeks. It feels good! Check out my-calorie-counter.com. It’s a free service and it counts your calories for you! It’s really helped me to be accountable somewhere. Good Luck!

Gimme a month. I’ll miraculously drop 15 lbs overnight. (of course, in the next 3-4 weeks I’ll also gain 5lbs, but that’s beside the point). When I lost weight last year, I found the best thing was drinking at least 3 liters of water/day and not eating 3 hours before bed, so cutting dinner may work well for you. Good luck!
