How to diet poorly I'm probably about 10 pounds over my usual weight. Too much travel, too much time in front of the pc, not enough time (or will power) to go to the gym. My friend convinced me that his mother "took inches" off her waist, and that her plan would help me. So, for the past three days, I tried the modified Bulgarian Atkins Diet: Nothing starchy at all. No bread, no cerial, no potatoes, no pizza, no sandwiches: the staple of my (bad) diet. No fruit. No orange juice in the morning. Nothing milk-related. No yoghurt. No beer. No Vodka. No fun. So, for the past three days I have eaten only the follow: Eggs *scambled* for breakfast. Eggs *mexicana* for lunch Chicken for dinner. Smoked, baked, and/or broiled. A can of tuna fish Water A watery juice called from a native plant called a "Chokeberry" which I found at the healthfood store which is "dietetic." I think it is a fruit (*berry) but since I bought it at a health food store, it's OK. Unfortunately my productivity has gotten worse and worse. Constant headache. Constant hunger pangs. A strange whiny sound passing from my lips. So, at 6:30 pm tonight I did the logical thing. I put on my coat, walked to the corner market, and bought a Snickers Bar and a loaf of bread. I am in heaven. But tomorrow I'll be in the gym... 6:59:31 PM    comment []
