Welcome! What's this 4HB all about?

Hi All!

So I'm going to try Tim Ferriss' 'The 4-hour Body' diet. I'm an optimistic skeptic and for 30 days, starting on Monday, September 26th, I'll embark on this little adventure.

I'm and engineer and an MBA by trade and Tim has me very curious. I have been working hard at my weight and seem to have plateaued at about 208lb and about 18% body fat so its time to shake things up a bit.

I'm also a father of 2 year old twin girls, my wife Jess is coming along with me on this adventure and I'll update you on her progress as well. Tim is a swingin' bachelor from the sounds of it so consider me a real-life acid test on whether or not the more average folk can realistically fit this into their lives.

My goal is 195lb and about 12%BF which is well within the expectations set by Tim's program at 20lbs in 30 days.

I'll be talking about how I feel on the diet, how much it costs and what the results are, of course. I'll try to be as specific as possible and time/date all the things I do.

I'll put links and photos of everything I do and hopefully it will be as big a success as Tim advertises it to be!

Vote on what you think my end weight will be!

Day 21 All good!

Weight/BF% - didn't weigh in today
Mood - very good!

Diet is going well today but I don't think i'll be able to get into the gym today which is ok for me when it comes to weight management. For me, exercise makes virtually no difference in my weight, only diet really effects my weight.

So far, the blog seems to be the biggest difference maker in behavioral change, it reinforces my willpower. I'm not sure why that is really but the accountability aspect of the blog is something that seems to resonate with me. If you haven't tried a blog, try it, might be the best thing you can do to attain a goal that has been tough to reach.

Meals
9am - 2 scrambled eggs and bacon w/ coffee
12pm - veggies and dip
1pm - Dim Sum - not the puffy stuff, fried tofu and some spicy green beans
7pm -
Exercise - none
