Setbacks and Kevin Smith

I stuck with the rotating diet for a good 16 weeks but then ended up in Los Angeles with no way to heat food (at least I had a fridge). With no real grocery nearby, it became very tough to keep up any sort of normal diet. It got worse when they moved me from Tarzana to Hollywood. And then, I was home and on vacation. Two weeks on the road with no way to control for time or type of food I was eating. When I came back, I weighed 344.2 pounds.

This was my new starting point. Lately, I have been seeing Kevin Smith do a lot of interviews for his new movie. He lost a massive amount of weight, and through multiple interviews, I was able to piece together how he did it. He basically fasts from 7pm to 1pm daily and then only eats a Vegan diet. Since he hates vegetables, he ends up skipping meals.

So, I decided to adopt an altered version of this approach. Keep the 1pm to 7pm dining window but try to eat vegetarian as much as possible. Also, cut sugar down to one day a week. Also, have, at most 6 sodas a week. Yes, there is a dice component to all this. I didn't tell anyone what I was doing but here are the results of one week of this:

Current Weight: 336. That is a 2.4% loss of weight.

Week 1 (and all weeks) represents an 86% drop in sugar consumption.

Week 1 also had 64% less meat, 79% less soda and 43% more water (probably more than that, I am drinking the shit out of some water).

This week, I do not expect as dramatic results as week 1 if only because my soda consumption doubled from 3 to 6 on the die roll. But still, 11 vegetarian meals should be good.
