Lose Weight By Public Humiliation
Diet

UPDATE: Saturday, Nov 24: Down to 200, in spite of several off-days on thanksgiving week! Atkins baby!

UPDATE:Monday, Nov 13,2006: Had a rough couple of weeks in a row, stress-wise: Studying for EIT, Taking EIT, Stressing out about probable non-passing EIT, stressing about elections, I ballooned up to 210 lbs. But I've been on the diet for a week now, and not taking off saturday I am at 202!

UPDATE: Monday, Sept 25, 2006: 205 lbs. didn't exercise or atkins much...let the humilation set it and work its magic!

I always have this need to tell people my weight all the time; it makes me feel proud to have lost it and it makes me ashamed when I've gained it. Nobody gives too much of a crap, but I always felt that when people know something about you, it can shame you into doing the right thing. So I will assume everyone is thinking 'lard ass' when I tell my weight this week. Hopefully, just by seeing it, I will be super-motivated to lose it. Lets see what a partial Atkins and exercise week will do!

Monday Sept 18, 2006: 203.5 lbs

Atkins Diet Potatoesque Salad

I made a great atkins recipe discovery (in a book) for myself this weekend!

Ingredients:
1 1-oz Yukon GoldFingerling Potato
1 12-oz Pork Chop
1 48-oz can of Trans Fat Crisco
1 beef tongue for garnish

Ha! Just kidding Atkins Bigots! Really, its

Ingredients:
4 Hard Boiled Eggs
1 Medium Sized Rutabega (<-Not bad fake potato!)
3/4 Cup Mayo
1/2 Cup Scallions
1/2 Cup Celery
1 medium dill pickle if you like that sort of thing
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 packet of Splenda

1. Pare Rutabega and cut into 4 pieces of roughly equal size. Boil until soft (30 mins), then let cool.

2. Put everything into a bowl (of course chopping up scallions and celery and eggs) and mix it up.

Voila! A 2 step Fake Potato Salad that is lo-carb and tastes good to non-dieters!
