Okay, not really. Just posting that I am NOW setting a realistic goal to lose 2-3 pounds a week and get to my goal of 137 by my HealthyWage weigh out date. That goal, which I'll get $500 for accomplishing, is to weigh out between May 07 to May 21 at 152.1 pounds. My plan will get me both the cash and my ultimate goal.
Wish me luck!!

Special K Diet
FINISH: Monday, 01/20/2020: ????
I crashed and burned on this diet. It was just too boring to eat cereal two meals a day. I've now reverted back to what I know, which is tracking what I eat and following the rules that everyone knows about eating properly.

START: Monday, 01/13/2020: 170.9 lbs.
01/13 - My work place provides free cereal, along with drinks and snacks (I know, right?) and one of the cereals is Special K, so I thought of this diet. As explained in this article, Kellogg no longer promotes the Special K Diet, but it is still used by a lot of people.
With the calculation of hitting 137 by first Monday in April, I still need to lose 2.8 pounds a week. This diet, as described, is a two week diet. I'll see how the first week goes and then decide if I do two.

Rachel Ray - One Week Diet Plan
One Week Loss = 2.6 lbs
FINISH: Monday, 01/13/2020: 170.9 lbs.
1/13 - Total loss this week = 2.6 lbs. I knew I would lose just because I stopped eating bread and paid attention to what I ate. I did have a "cheat" day on Friday, but other than that, I stayed pretty much right on the diet. I wasn't really hungry on this diet, but I did find myself wanting snacks. With that, I ate peanut butter which is allowed and that that worked. I also did not exercise this week, which makes a difference, although in my experience the most effective part of a weight loss is your diet.

START: Monday, 01/06/2020: 173.5 lbs.
1/8 - Trucking along easily with this as it's similar to what I've done before. I'm sure simply cutting out bread and milk will be a big help in the weight loss. While I'm thinking about it, some others I want to do on this challenge: Mediterranean Diet, Intermittent Fasting, HMR Shakes only, and maybe this 11 day diet I found in an old box of my writings.

2020 - How can I lose weight?
Here we are. 2020. I am still hanging out at 170ish of my 50 pound weight loss, but I want to get under the 140 mark - so like another 35 pounds I guess. Let's say I'm 173 and want to be 137 by first week in April. So, I need to lose 36 pounds in 13 weeks.
Let's do something different. Right now, my goal is 2.8 pounds a week. So this weeks number is 3 pounds in one week. So, I'll find a "diet" that promises that and do it. Then I'll recalculate my goal and find a new diet/solution for the next week. Fun, right? And I'll document each one here.
So, to all my imaginary readers, if you happen upon this and want to give me a diet/solution to try for a week, I will, and will post my results here.
