I have had fairly good fast weight loss over the last two weeks.  I weighed in at 213 pounds, down from 217 on from my day 56 entry .  I missed posting last week as life was just hectic and apologize to anyone who has been reading along and expecting to see a weekly post.  I did not receive any email complaints so perhaps I am the only one reading these.

I don't even know where to begin since the last two weeks have been a blur.  I do want to say I have done a TON of exercise and I do believe you must have a good exercise plan setup to truly lose weight fast or even slow and keep it off.  So for anyone out there looking for a quick fix, lets get real, you must be committed to your weight loss plan both physically and mentally.

I normally break down the exercise and diet area but I don't think there is a real need.  My diet is the same and see my entire weight loss journal for what I did.  I recommend reading from the beginning. 

Exercise provided me with once again a lot of chances to play tennis which I really enjoy but I also did my first jogging.  I only did one mile as I didn't want to overdue it.  Due to a lot of rain here over the last two weeks that has been my only chance to run.  I continue to do the incumbent bike for 30 minutes on days I do not play tennis or run and I am always doing my perfect pushup bar pushups which I love.  I have increased my bicep curls to two sets as well.  

I have found that riding the incumbent bike is real important for me personally as well because I have had some soreness in one knee and find that by keeping the muscles around the knee stronger that this pain goes away.  So I always ride the bike at least once a week.

How do I feel?  I feel so much healthier.  I have more stamina on things I used to notice, like walking up 3 flights of stairs does not wind me at all now whereas before I would be pretty tired.

My vacation is fast approaching and I really need to lose weight fast.  I wanted to be at 200 pounds and with 13 pounds to go and only a few weeks left it will be really tough.  I am anxious for my next weigh day, which is in three days, to see how I am doing. 

I have also started back up on tennis lessons so that brings my activity up to at least 4 nights a week of one plus hour each time.

Am I hungry much?  I am not hungry too often but when I am I have some peanuts, yogurt, or an apple.  In the evenings I eat a weight watchers ice cream bar which is approximately 120 calories.  I should probably cut that out.

What has changed in my diet?  The only big change I have done is I now drink green tea daily .  After writing for this site on this topic I am convinced this can help me in my weight loss. We have a whole series of question & answers being done on green tea and that really got me to say to myself that I should drink green tea too!  So I am!  The article series we are doing is pretty cool, it will be a 5 part, 5000 word total (approximate), series of questions and answers.  I often answer questions for people on Q&A forums and the most common questions I have decided to put into an article series.  So keep tuned into our blog (sign up with our RSS feed if you have not, button is on home page, right side) for when these come out.  I found them very useful even for myself!

Until next time, good luck to you and your weight loss goals!  I know I need some luck to make my goals, time is running out...Peace!
