This is the part where I hold myself accountable and make a public announcement about my new plan to eat healthier and lose some weight! If I were really brave, I would post my before photo, but for now, I'm using it as my desktop background on my home computer.
Here's the plan...
I am combining the Paleo Diet (encouraged by Crossfit)
and the Slow-Carb diet (encouraged in the book "The 4-Hour Body").
They both restrict all white carbs (bread, pasta, rice, potatoes, etc) and encourage a large protein intake and a lot of veggies. The Slow Carb diet completely restricts dairy and sugar, including fruits. The good part about the Slow-Carb diet is that it requires one cheat day. In fact, it is important that you binge on the cheat day and spike your calorie intake. Since I definitely want a cheat day, I'm going to follow the Slow-Carb diet, but I may cheat a little by eating a few servings of fruit during the week. If I don't see any results, I guess I'll have to cut the fruit, too. So, starting tomorrow, my menu consists of Omelettes, Taco Soup, Salads, Chicken, Pork chops, and lots of beans and veggies. I think I'll be pretty excited for my cheat day on Saturday!

Wow, that is some serious commitment! I know you can do it, if anyone can. But from the photo you sent me this evening, you're looking pretty great already! I mean can your face be any more chiseled? :) You are just the person I need to inspire me for the, " Eat To Live" diet I'll be starting after camping. haha
Ditto Rachelle. Good luck Kasey you can do it!
Kasey, you are amazing! You look amazing too. I wish I had your willpower. Eating is my weakness.
