Check out this pic of the Chattanooga Choo Choo, a landmark of Chattanooga, TN and an awesome place to visit. Of course it’s the source of the Glen Miller song of the same name (you can hear the song on the Choo Choo site - click the name above) and a movie (starring Barbara Eden, […]

Slim Fast, Day 6

Weight today: 212.8 (same as yesterday - always a concern for a dieter afraid of “the plateau”)
% Body fat 36%

February 18th, 2008 · 1 Comment
 Weight today: ??? (Still not with my scale)
% Body Fat: ??? (Will measure tomorrow morning)
Starting Phase II today. Had a couple of cheats yesterday. We’ll see how this affects the diet. I almost think it should be okay. I didn’t go nuts on the cheats, meaning I didn’t eat everything in sight just because […]

No numbers today because I am in sunny Chattanooga, TN and without my super-scale. I am sticking with the diet of course, though it is hard while traveling. Still, being able to work on trips is a MUST for most diets so this will be a good test. I will […]

Low Calorie Diet, Day 15 (San Antonio Edition)
January 17th, 2008 · No Comments
 These are pictures of Casa Rio, a fantastic restaurant on the Riverwalk in San Antonio. Not the easiest place to eat for the diet-conscious, but it was darn tasty. The two pictures are from its early days in the 1940’s and then a picture from “now”. I loved this place and it deserved a spot […]

Low Calorie Diet, Day 14 (San Antonio Edition)
January 17th, 2008 · No Comments
 Pictured here is San Antonio’s Riverwalk - A great place to take a walk, have a drink and find a meal. Not so great a place if you are on a diet. Don’t get me wrong. Plenty of healthy choices available along with Riverwalk. You just won’t want to make the healthy choice over the […]
