Hi everyone, it’s Richardo here.  If you are currently reading this and you are new to my blog, then you are soon to find out I live life to the fullest and I also challenge myself constantly to be the best I can be.  Shout out to all my new subscribers and followers, and if you are not one, you should join the fun. 🙂 Nice plug right?  I am sorry.

Either way, I want some awesome sexy abs and I have beenworking hard at it.  But eating too much rice and bread can hinder that goal.  Carbs can be evil.  So evil I am excluded it out of my diet.  I don’t want to but I have to.  This is the most extreme challenge I have ever set myself for too this date.  If you are from the carribbean such as myself (Jamaica) we eat big plates of food and rice and also hard dough bread from golden krust among other places.  Rice is a crucial part of our meals.

So now you know NO RICE and NO BREAD is a big deal to me at least.  Not only am I going for no rice and bread for 30 days, I am getting back into running and riding bikes too so I am adding a cardio fat burning factor to my challenge.  I ride the bike at the gym, I go on the treadmill and I go running outside, to add to my cardio performance for my workout and weight loss, so I challenge myself  to do 10 miles 4 days a week for 30 days.  So that means 16 days of 10 miles runs or riding, on a moderate level.

Recently I have lost 11 lbs at the gym, and seeing success in my workouts.  I have added so much intensity and various workouts that my body is confused and burning fat smoothly.

I hope I can beat this challenge.  After the next 30 days I will let you know the results and the amount of weight or muscles I have gained from this challenge.

so…

No Rice or Bread for 30 days
and

10 miles (4 days a week)

*side note:  The reason why I don’t go everyday for 10 miles, is because I need to rest my body and also I play soccer, basketball and tennis on the other days.  I would be completely burned out.

A good diet and exercise equals weight loss and a healthy lifestyle.

Are you looking to loss some weight?  Are you working out and eating effectively and to be healthy?  Do you think I will win this challenge against myself?

Thanks for reading
Richardo Wilson

I went to pathmark to buy some healthy goodies to eat, then my mind wandered into the past on my weekly bag of JELLY BEANS I use to buy.  I figured even though it aint a part of my diet, buy it anyways, eat a few and give the rest to my brother, shoot it’s only 99 cents.  Well the price had changed to $1.29, but I was still determined to get it.  So I got my salad, a low-calorie ice cream, went to the counter, then it wrung up $2.59, I said hey cashier, the price is wrong, she says, nope, you got the wrong bag.  I said kindly, please take that off then, in my mind I was like (GET THE F OUTTA HERE, lol, honestly)…then I go, wow, the HEALTH GOD of DIET just saved my life and kept me on track…but all the way home I was like, DARN IT, I wanted those DARN JELLY BEANS….shiz.  FAIL FAIL FAIL…smh
