Chris Pirillo – Losing Weight
Chris Pirillo was another one of the amazing group of people that I met at SXSW this year. After evaluating his life, Chris realized that he had gained some weight and topped the scales at 178 pounds. Two months later, he was down to 149. Twenty-five pounds in two months is an amazing weight loss. Here’s how he did it:
Captain 149 lost his weight by limiting his calorie intake and exercising three times a week. That’s it. No two hour fasts with a tablespoon of olive oil. No silly powders or mixes. He just kept his calories below his expenditure and he lost weight. It works every time.
The hard part is following the program. Chris was motivated to be healthy and was able to get back to a healthy weight and lifestyle. You can do it do. All you need to do is DECIDE to do it, no matter what.

The hard part is following the program even after you lose it. I need to decide to exercise more.

I started at roughly the same time Chris did with a small fraction of the enthusiasm. I haven’t been consistent with exercise and I still have an occasional glass of wine with dinner. One thing I have done is keep track of what I’m eating, which seems to help self-regulate overeating. In the same two month time period, I’m down from a starting point of 190 to 178. The key longterm is finding time to exercise to really bolster the results.
