    No posting pictures of naked juice.



    I'm three weeks into this thing, down seven pounds at last measurement. 10 percent there, in other words.

    Way to go, Moddy. What's your secret?

    Try cutting your water with a small amount of (cranberry or whatever) juice. Seltzer is fine, too, if you need some carbonation in your life.

    Stopped eating like a pig - this was tough because I'm a pig. I mix in one Snapple A Day (much better than Slim Fast), one Power Bar "Harvest," some fruit and one regular meal (very limited meat) with tons and tons and tons of water. I've moved my office to the bathroom.

    Started exercising more - the next step is to start actual workouts again.

    I haven't given up coffee and won't. I'll make a lot of sacrifices to try and extend my life. That's not one of them.

    Moddy, strong work.

    Coffee is the nectar of life, but only if it's black and strong enough to be chewed.

    Boom, I assume this is what you meant? Coffee?

    Agreed. I try to keep myself in shape, but I love coffee and dammit, I'm addicted to caffiene. I just try to keep up on the water intake too so I don't dehydrate myself.

    Yes, and I pretty much have.

    In my 22 days on the "plan," I've had one beer and one half of a bottle of wine (well, not quite half. I can't keep pace with my wife the wine hog).

    I don't miss the beer. I'd like to do a half bottle of wine a week. My doctor says that's actually GOOD for me!

    I pretty much have given up alcohol (at least on a regular basis). Last call where I live is 12:30 a.m., so it's tough to make it out of work and get to a bar most nights, and I'm not a big fan of drinking by myself. So if I have a beer, it's an occasional one.

    Of course, if there's a pretty girl involved, then all bets are off ;)

    OK, next topic for those addicted to health.

    How do you deal with sleeping on the road. Problems with time zones? sleeping spaces? erratic schedules?

    Time zones wreak a little havoc but I'm generally OK w/Westin Heavenly bed.
