Thanks for the reply Jimmy and link to your video. I also went back and cracked your book open and saw your “Plan to splurge” recommendation on page 136.

I may try that, I just have to make sure the splurge meal doesn’t become a splurge month

If I get to 170 pounds lost then I’ll post before and after pics.

Great job Jimmy, and great job on the site, podcast and book!!

I started 4 months ago and I’m down 60 pounds. You and Kent (bowulf) are both inspirations.

Have you had any major cheats in the last 5 years? I ask because I wonder will I ever have a pizza again (my biggest weakness)

In my mind I think I’ll be able to avoid it and treat it like an someone with an alcohol problem treats beer or wine.

Mike, that is AWESOME!!! 15 pounds a month on low-carb–YOU GO BOY! As for “cheats,” I had lots of planned ones in the first year and a little into my second year, but not since. Don’t need ‘em anymore! But here’s a YouTube video I made about this subject. ENJOY!

Congratulations on five years Jimmy! You are in inspiration to so many!

2 years and two months for me. Yes, that means I started just BEFORE Thanksgiving. Or more to the point, just before my twin sons’ birthday. Couldn’t wait til Jan. 1. Such was the impact of Protein Power Life Plan on my thinking. Now, I don’t miss the cookies and cake at all.

That’s so awesome, Steve! CONGRATS to you, too!
