Down 11 Pounds In 7 Days!

If you're reading this in January you'll notice in the upper right a graphic for the World Blogger Championship Of Online Poker(WBCOOP). If you have a blog over two months old, you can ask Pokerstars to give you a ticket that gets you into several tournaments for free. Since a free Pokerstars tournament is how Marianne and I got to go to the Bahamas last year, I had to say yes.

After getting the start time wrong on the first day I just finished 15th in a field of 1634 players and that got me a ticket to another tournament. I won't go into a big explanation as I'm a little tired from over 5 hours of playing and I'm frustrated that I didn't win or even reach the final nine. So, about my weight loss...

Actually, I've lost the weight mostly because of being on Jordan Rubin's cleanse, but not completely. I did lose 9 pounds in 6 days and then I got a little pain that my wife thought might be early appendicitis. Yesterday I was enjoying some yogurt with honey - finally! Then I saw Dr. Duck (his real name) at 11:00 and he had the lab draw some blood. Just in case he told me to stick to a clear liquid diet and I decided to stick with chicken broth and tea, which is even more strict than Jordan Rubin's cleanse.

Today he called to say it wasn't appencitis and now I'm back to the early stage of the cleanse. You can read the previous couple of posts for more details and click on the title of this post for more information on Jordan Rubin's diet. If I can do this, so can you.

I have walked* 95.5 miles in 2010.

Keep walking!
