Some Thoughts on the First Few Days

1) I have a newfound hatred for the marketing departments of fast food restaurants and junk-food companies. I find myself constantly wanting to eat their food even when I'm not hungry. Why aren't there laws against this?
2) Tasty food and healthy food are two mutually exclusive categories. Anyone who says different is lying to themselves. How many people are going to tell me to try some food that is supposed to be healthy? Either the food ends up tasting like cardboard (i.e. fat-free cheese) or isn't really healthy.
3) I'm out of shape. This may play out to be in my favor since I have more room for improvement. Time will tell.
4) My plan is to restrict my diet more now and jump out to an early lead. Hopefully that will demoralize Bryan. If I can lose 7-8 pounds in the first week, I'll consider myself in a good position to win.
