WEEK 10 - BACK ON TRACK

Last week was a tough one.

Filling in on the Energy morning show was a fun experience, don't get me wrong. Waking up at 4am everyday - not so fun.

It was a major hit to my system to go from getting 7-8 hours of sleep per night to getting only 3-4 hours.

I was a mess. I even started to feel sick towards the end of the week. I'm just so glad to be back to my regular routine.

The added stress and lack of sleep last week also made me take a hit on the scale. I started to see my weight go up due to the fact I was retaining a lot of water and due to the fact I was eating at different times than normal. Luckily I was able to maintain myself and I ended up losing again over the weekend once I got back into a regular sleeping pattern.

I'm down to 233 now, which is 37 pounds in 10 weeks.

I'm hoping to get down to 230 by this time next week. Obviously it will be a bit of a challenge with Easter coming this weekend. I'm a sucker for those Cadbury Creame Eggs so I'll be avoiding them like the plague!

Jan at Herbal One has got some products I can use that will help this weekend since I'll be out of town. The best one is the Carb Block supplement that blocks 20% of carbohydrates from getting into your system. This means beer and potatoes arn't so bad anymore - and I'm a guy who loves his beer and potatoes!

There are some other great products on sale now too that can help you, in addition to signing up for the program. Just contact Herbal One at 748-9999 to get the details.
