I would like to see some graphs of weight versus date, with different colored lines for each participant. You’re all smart boys, you can do it. As a reader, I find it hard to gauge how much progressive is being made. Perhaps a visual would encourage some friendly competition.
And cheese fries are never acceptable. You’ll lose a lot more weight if you stop ordering out. I know you are all busy but ou can make a good and healthly meal in only 10 minutes prep time, and the time spent cooking will help relax you.
Since you are all so busy, you might be interested in this: http://www.flavorspraydiet.com/
They are flavor sprays. I don’t know how good they taste but there are a bunch of them, such as Butter, Parmesan, Ranch, Teriyaki, BBQ, Chocolate…all sorts. You can spray your baked chicken and rice cakes to your hearts content. They are based in Flushing so those of you New Yorkers can probably find them at some trendy corner store.
Don’t forget to mix your colors. Fruits and veges in different colors have different disease fighting compounds. I’m assuming your end goal is to live healthly and not just drop the pounds.
As per Faith’s request, I have posted a weight loss chart for myself at http://www.hollando.com/diet. If my fellow dieters are interested, we could start a color-coded, multi-series Excel chart.
Cheese fries never acceptable? Egad! How can I go on with my life?! Not even the occassional yum-yum to break up the monotony? As the little orange-and-red-monster-guy-in-the-cave from Zelda would say, “Grumble, Grumble…”
Ten minutes prep time for a healthy meal? Maybe I could spend that at the Whole Foods Market salad bar. They have… tofu… and other healthy-type stuff that healthy people eat. Tofu. That’s a serious leap.
OK, fine, I’ll go light on the take-out. Except I need to eat right now. Hmmm…. Chip’s hamburger is so close to me… cheese fries… OK, fine, I’ll be good. Snuffer’s cheese fries, though, seem less of an infraction… ??

Clearly this place’s cheddar fries are less offensive, especially given the option between “small” and “large.”

Perhaps I can muster the self-discipline to be good and order soup and a sandwich…

Boring… but I’ll do anything to drop weight. And the healthy living whatnot is a bonus.
