HOW I LOST 6 LBS IN 2 A DAYS
C'MON, can you really lose 6 lbs in two days, without starving yourself or dying of thirst? There's no way that's possible, is it? Well...
... here's how I did it.
First, I fell completely off the wagon over the weekend.
Carboloaded after my big ride Saturday.
Did nothing on Sunday.
Woke up at 166.2,
Monday.
That's the easy part.
I mean it took some work to get off the couch and find the chips and cookies on Sunday,
but not much.
The hard part wasn't...
- eating more protein
- shunning pointless carbs
- or, being properly hydrated
It also wasn't...
- getting plenty of sleep
- hitting the weights
- or, riding the bike
... that was all easy,
and how I should be living anyway.
What was hard was...
- finding time for a 2 hour spin on Monday
- throwing down for 3+ hours Tuesday morning
- and then, lining up for an MTB race Tuesday evening
... all of which would be a joy on an individual basis.
But destroyed me half a lap into the MTB race.
If I had to boil it all down to a formula, it would be...
- eat real food
- do 2 a day from time to time
... for a quick jumpstart.
