I've been in the wings lurking at this thread and all of you are an inspiration to me. Besides the fact that y'all have more PRSi's than I do - and nicer ones at that, I'm jealous at the weight loss. So I recently bought into the MediFast program after following a local radio guys blog and reading how he is now 126 lighter than when he started. He was is like me - a Big Ole Boy!
Well the Medifast box sat there for a week before I even opened it. So I finally started it. Today is the end of the first two weeks. I've lost 17lbs (5.24%). Still a very long way to go to reach my goal but I have no time limit. Like someone said before, it's all about calorie intake. I eat less than 1000 a day (for now). Dinner last night was a Shrimp, Mushroom and Asparagus Frittata & a side salad. 9 med shrimp are only 60cal, 3 EggBeater eggs are less than 100cal, and each asparagus are only 3cal. My problem is that I am a total CARB person. I love bread, rice & pasta! But that is strictly off my diet for now. Also off limits for now are fruits and root veggies (potatoes, carrots, etc.) because of the higher sugar content. It's not easy but its also not hard. I can do this!
As far as how this relates to my PRS guitar playing? Well, I've NEVER had to worry about buckle rash on the back of my guitars and I await the day when my guitar strap will seem like it is really the right length.
Thanks all for the kick in the arse and the inspiration.
