Thursday -- good half a week

This morning I was down to 200.4, and 33.6% body fat.

How did I do that, I'm even outperforming my own expectations this week. One nice thing my wife did was to buy a tray of 30 deviled eggs, and stick it in the refrigerator. So in the morning when I'm in a hurry off to work, I can grab a couple deviled eggs (which are one of my favorite foods). Since they are basically eggs, mayo and mustard, there's no carbs. I mix that with a couple pieces of string cheese (80 calories, 0 carbs) and that makes a good breakfast for me.

I usually get hungry in the mid morning, so I go down to the snack shop/drugstore and grab a pack of beef jerky. The thin kind, not the chewy kind. The chewy kind has a ton of corn syrup -- ie sugar, which means it's 5g carbs per serving. The thin kind is closer to 2g/serving. Btw, beef jerky is incredibly expensive, but I find it's worth it to lose the weight and maybe live longer. For lunch, we have a salad bar in the building where you can build your own. I usually make a salad and then either get eggs, salmon or chicken wings to provide protein. Make sure you get a zero-carb dressing, like blue cheese or ceasar. Stay away from anything that says "light", as that's sure to have carbse. If we don't go to the salad bar, most sit down restaurants have a salad with some kind of meat -- steak salad or (in the northwest) blackened salmon ceasar salad...mmmmmm.
For dinner, when I get home late I will eat deviled eggs, string cheese and beef sticks (old wisconsin from Walgreens). And I try not to snack after I have the dinner, although I often will end up eating 1 or two more string cheeses later in the evening.
