Just before I built my first bike I lost 65 pounds. The bike project was kind of my reward. I did pretty good keeping it off until two weeks ago. I had finished the weed whacker bike and was just hanging out. That weekend my wife decided that it was time to celebrate her birthday, father's day and my birthday all in one big blowout.
The kids come over and it was designer pizza, two cakes and ice cream. Now desert once week really isn't bad but I had them leave the remnants of one cake, and of course all the ice cream.
For the next four days nonstop I snacked on cake and ice cream. My wife was smart enough to leave it alone and not block my path to it. At the end of that week I had gained six pounds. Panic set in of course. I should not have worried I began the chainsaw bike.
First think I do in the morning is check my mail and post the next part of the blog. Then I feed the dogs and drink black coffee, After I put the dogs out for the day, I have a bowl of cereal with sugar free fruit syrup of some kind. Then I start work on he bike. Next thing I know my wife is home for lunch. I keep working. Sometime after she goes back to work, my blood sugar takes a dive and I get shaky. Then it's time for peanut butter on bread and diet coke.
A little protein and I'm ready for the afternoon work. I am also dehydrated by four. But I have lost the six pounds and two more. If I want to stay trim I just have to build more bikes...
So there is a diet anyone can follow. Give the bum a bike and a wrench.
