That's great Chico. I'm right behind you. I quit smoking cold turkey on March 13 and gained 13#. Now I'm trying to modify my diet. You're a real inspiration - I want to get back to my old, trim and energetic self. Keep up the good work.
Good job Chico, although your not a breakfast eater, you seam to like juicing so you might consider having a smoothy in the mornings, this might would keep your sugars level.
Hi Chico... I love your videos because I liked the reviews (especially the bloody marys! I still want to go there someday!), and you give me a break from all the ranting and punditry I see everywhere else. I'm glad you're turning the corner on your health by taking control of your diet, though, and I'm sure you can succeed. I lost 35 lbs. over the last two years, so you can do it too. I did it by slowly taking up jogging (walking is probably better, but I think brisk walking is the best), which got me to twenty lbs of weight loss. I did hit a wall for weeks and weeks where I couldn't lose any more, so I put My Fitness Pal on my smartphone and started logging every bite, and the combination of exercise and calorie counting was the key to reaching the goal. You're a good guy, and I hope you have a lot of success.
So proud of you! You must get your butt moving too. A least a half an hour of walking is a great place to start. You will see twice the results. I did! I also drink a half of a lemon juiced with an ounce of E3live in a quart of water. It seems to control the blood sugar. I am very strict with my food and exercise all week and then treat myself to something naughty on the weekend. A little ice cream or whatever. Keep it up!
