Uffdah! My diet and exercise program will begin this Monday. My partner is going out of town on business this week and this will provide the perfect excuse to kick start things. I have decided upon a low-carb diet plan which focuses on lean sources of protein, plenty of fresh vegetables, limited-to-no alcoholic beverages (my liver will thank me), limited saturated fats, healthy oils, and an emphasis on variety and flavor. Hello Food Network! :-P
For exercise I'm going to start with the elliptical machine and daily walks for some low-impact exercise. I have a bum knee and I don't want to over do things until it is stronger.
Anyway why wait until my partner is out of town instead of starting today? Well the short answer is that he can complicate things. Last night for example his parents came to town to visit. They were RVing at a nearby campsite and invited us to join them and their friends for a Barbeque. That event turned into more of a Beer-beque since his aunt is a distributor for Coors. She brought a couple cases of a new product she wanted us to test. Good stuff but you can imagine the empty calories. Didn't help that I was double-fisting those 20 oz. bottles either :-P
