my self improvement blog

so I decided that as of today, May 11 I am:
1)only drinking water
2)going on the most hardcore version of Atkins diet
3)quitting smoking

I will document my struggles and glory here via I Love Cricket

Day 1) √

now I'm checking my horoscope to see if the moon is just out to get me or if I'm really for serious

damn I'm for serious

as a reader i am hoping for more struggles than glory, and zero discussion about carbohydrates.

I won't have any discussions about carbohydrates. I know how unattractive it is for men to discuss such things
But thank you Estela for being a reader, for whatever reason. I will deliver

good luck.

when u say only drinking water do you mean no coffee or tomato juice?

Day 2) √ except I kinda screwed up last night when I unconsciously ate a bunch of Altoids. Still drinking only water.

thank you for the update but i wonder if you would mind fleshing it out by describing the horrifying moment when you snapped back to consciousness and realised you had absentmindedly devoured the altoids.

i'm doing the same thing mulvaney except replace "water" with "alcohol" in (1) and "Atkins" with "takeout" in (2)

i spent years on the alcohol and takeout diet - but i have unusual discipline

Day 3) √
Day 4) √
Day 5) √

-struggles diarrhea and starting to crave diet coke and real food besides meat eggs and cheese

I'm a bit of a novice at this self improvement thing, just wondering how "2)going on the most hardcore version of Atkins diet" will improve you, and / or me if I imitate you

Thanks in advance

do you stink yet? y/n

estela, I felt bad after I ate the altoids. the horrifying moment involved me guessing how many carbs I just had and I know you don't want to hear anything about carbs.

I am using your worlds, the hardcore atkins diet is going to make me skinny so that I can fit into my old clothes and impress the ladies. It's mostly a self-esteem booster.

cozwn, no, I always smell lovely, its in my genes

give it time, all atkins stink

today I bought this

I like to eat them real slow and pretend that I'm human

really lifting weights is the best thing to do

welcome back capn!

rip mulvaney

mulvaney could have his uses:
one endulge bar for mulvaney; one for captain lorax.
ten altoids for mulvaney; ten for captain lorax.
etc.

Oh man, I honestly didn't see that coming, even after I reread 3 of my most recent posts (I was wondering why I could see 77)
I'm going to have to play it cool for a while. Act like I'm not here.

So far, so good.

Day 6) √ but 1 atkins bar
Day 7) √ but 1 atkins bar
Day 8) √ but 3 atkins bars

Those Atkins Endulge bars count 3 net carbs a piece but I believe they have about 22 carbs if you include sugar alcohols. Sugar alcohols can slow you weight loss. So I guess it's a good thing that I don't have any left. I shouldn't be eating them during induction. (I'm also supposed to be eating veggies). Now I need a new emergency snack. Perhaps I'll go buy some jello cups today. I'm going to continue induction and just stick another 3 days at the end of it. I never tend to leave induction anyways since I usually want to be hardcore or I fail.

Day 9) X lol, I totally got drunk for wii bowling at the bar tonight. I got third place and gave the girl who was my random partner the whole gift certificate ($10) and basically I drank at least 3 Wild Turkey + Diet Coke drinks and then I drank about 3 michelob ultras. So I failed tonight. Not too much. I'm still eating more carbs as I write this. I'm eating string cheese. I totally had too many carbs tonight and I had about 3 cigs. But I'm not going to do it again so I'm still alright. My diet will still work. I just had to have a special day off where I got drunk off my ass. Totally worth it. I shouldn't have dojne it during induction for atkins diet but what the hell. I was eating less than 10 carbs a day when induction is less than 20 carbs anyways. I can totally still win with this diet. Tomorrow it's back to the same old meat and cheese. But fucking tonight was fun. I win A+ even though I failed at my diet.

BTW, this is me. As soon as the website hosts my video for the bonnaroo contest I'm going to repost this video so you all can vote for me. I REALLY WANT TO GO TO BONNAROO.

And now that I have a youtube with me in it, maybe yall can realize who I am and I'm not some creep like Spin or some shit. Later.

hahaha I'm so awesome/ Bonnaroo

Well I totally relapsed. but I also premeditated it by deciding to get drunk last night. I failed all all 3 fronts. I had about 3 cigs at the bar. I drank something other than water (obviously). I came home and eated 3 bagels and strawberries with coolwhip and 3 ice cream sandwiches. I weighed myself today. I'm still about 7 pounds less than around the time I started. So I will probably gain back 2 pounds over the course of the weekend and start my self-improvement again on Monday. Peace.

hows it going?

v. well thank you. and yourself?

not good. had a shitty weekend so i made up for it with muchos weed and unhealthy eats. haven't exercised, am sunburnt and still don't have a job. today that changes (going for a run in a bit.)

ok so I've been on the Atkins again for almost 3 weeks. only a few days where I spurged on diet coke and/or vodka
forget about the quit smoking thing.. that's gonna have to wait
I might have lost 10 pounds or more, I don't know.

how much did not posting here improve yourself?

I can now play the piano with my toes, thanks to ILX bann!
