A Chiropractor Friend (aka Back-Crack-Quack) called it "Fit Fat". Beer, Pasta and Bread have been my undoing.
So while I started my usual routine of cutting this or that, I came across a tweet from Jonathan Little who claimed he lost 40 pounds on a diet. What caught my attention was the Author of the det book, "the 4 Hour Body" was Tim Ferris, the author of a book I read a couple of years ago called the "Four Hour Work week". I checked it out and the reviews were mixed. It seemed that most folks who failed, didn't keep up with everything in it. So far, I'm 3 weeks in and 10.25 lbs lighter. The first week and 1/2 was pure fucking torture. But, now I've got the hang of things and really look forward to my cheat day. I also feel lighter and more powerful when I run. Yesterday, I ran an easy 6.5 miles and could have run another 3 or 4 miles.
I want to drop another 10 lbs. Has anyone else ever tried this diet? Results?
