Weighted in this morning and 1Kg down already, so lost 2.2 Pounds. Current weight now 89.4 Kg (197 pounds).
No kettle bell training scheduled for today….
Over all, it went well, I had a few moments of hunger, but aimed to drink plenty of water and felt the volume of food I ate was good.
Headaches on and off for most of the day, but felt good over all.
Did quite a bit of the Xbox 360 Kinect games (probably 2 hours all up).

Sorry, forgot to take the picture, but this a vegetable stew I had made and frozen, very nice!
This is my second weight loss challenge!
The first one I took was a 56 day juice fast where I drank nothing but fruit and vegetable juice for 56 days! For full details of my weight loss on the juice fast visit my youtube channel as I uploaded a video with my progress EVERY SINGLE DAY! Thousands of people have watched those videos and it has inspired many people to take action to lose weight and indeed to save their lives (which I really believe I did by doing that).
My weight went from 111.2Kgs (246 pounds) to 88.2Kgs (185 pounds) giving me a weight loss of 23.2Kgs during that time (51 pounds). So I know I can achieve substantial weight loss quickly if I remain focus and committed which I am right now.
My juice fast finished up on September 6th (you can’t really by on a juice fast forever), and since then my weight has been down as low as 85.5Kg (188 pounds) to a high of 90.4 Kgs (199 pounds) which is today’s weight.
Overall I have kept the weight off, and only a recent trip to Phuket where I indulged a little bit too hard with food and alchohol did I “lose it” a bit and gained a little weight, and I feel if I don’t get back into the swing of things that I will go back to old habits and the weight will be gained again.
Just so I am clear – THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY I AM GOING BACK TO MY OLD HABITS, NOR AM I GOING TO GAIN THAT WEIGHT AGAIN!
I love my new body, increased energy levels, shopping for “normal” clothes, etc!
Plus I gave up meat and diary and effectively became a vegan.
Anyway, I decided enough was enough and it was time to get motivated again and have a plan of attack.
I’ve decided to use Tim Ferris Four Hour Body method to do some big weight loss before Christmas 2011. Today as I type this is November 5th, so that levels me about 6-7 weeks!
My goal? To get to 78Kgs (171 pounds) between then and now. It’s ambitious but you know what? I am going to do it! I know I can do it and succeed.
More on the actual method of how I will achieve it each day, but for now I am going to post here regularly with my progress as well as upload photos of EVERYTHING I eat.
Part of Tim’s plan is plenty of protein and to make things easier for myself I have decided to eat eggs, so I guess technically I am a vegetarian and not a vegan – I have NO plans to eat meat and in fact have not since day 1 of my juice fast in July 2011 – wow that is a long time ago now.
This blog will keep my focused and accountable so any comments and support you can offer will be appreciated.
I hope you also get some motivation if you are considering a similar journey as well.
Cheers
Tim
