You hit the nail on the head. Alcohol will completely derail you from a workout because of lack of energy. I always make myself 'earn' a night of boozing by working out first. It does mess with your recovery and will require massive amounts of water...but it's better than killing a day you had planned for exercise. You should seriously try Bikram Yoga for a month 2 days a week. Results will blow you away.

Kevin... did you cut out coffee? Were you a coffee drinker before?

Wow! That is pretty quick to lose 10 lbs. Have you ever tried wheatgrass shots? I just took one recently and it was energizing. I'll ping you the URL. Cheers!

Me too. While exercising everyday on the Wii Fit!

I already don't drink. I've cut out a lot of carbs. Already take the multivitamins. Not sure where I will find time for that kind of exercise, though.

Wheatgrass juice is great but tastes awful on its own. I grew some years ago, but my manual wheatgrass juicer is currently gathering dust somewhere... Maybe I'll get back into it someday.

Veronica: umm coffee is ok, I have a cup a couple times a month. Just don't add sugar.
- Kevin Rose
I've been want to switch from coffee to green tea for a long time - you just gave me a reason. Great post Kevin.

yeah, sounds like great, sound advice, but way time intensive I hate to say.

Yeah I'm also doing the 100 pushups, no mid-week drinking & cardio. Raesons? Energy level helps, and just general well-being. yoga in the morning!
