Despite the fact that the motivation behind this whole experiment is somewhat kind of a joke, I actually was a little excited to get started with it. No time like the present to start putting my money where my mouth is, and not give myself any time to back out of it. Especially when the only real result to actually sticking with this is weight loss, and who couldn’t use some weight loss these days?
It’s funny, while I was preparing for the start of this whole thing, the day before I started, I basically ate as if I were on death row. Cereal that had some chocolate in it, Zaxby’s for lunch along with fried mozzarella bites and then Costco pizza later on for dinner. A Tim Horton’s copycat iced capp recipe I’d been sitting on for like a year, I urgently went ahead and made it because the leftover heavy cream I had in the fridge would undoubtedly be spoiled if I were to make it 28 days.
But now that the experiment has begun, I am taking this shit seriously. I hate failing to do the things that I say I will do, and I’m determined to go as long as I can with this, although there are a lot of loose parameters and tightening up of the rules that I need to do along the way.
I want to chronicle the things I’m eating, as well as try and put a price to them, because when watching My 600 Lb. Life, a lot of people try and make excuses of financial reasons why they can’t eat better, but they’re somehow ordering $45 worth of KFC to eat by themselves in a single sitting. Naturally, I’ll try my best to attach relevant nutritional information, as well as notate if I’m doing any sort of exercise throughout the days.
So without further ado, here is the summary of day 1…
