Ren from renagerie.com posted recently about how he wants to lose some weight again. He lost a good 60-70 lbs a few years ago just by tracking his food and exercising. This time around he just wants to nitpick about a few pounds, but him talking about it nudged me to do the same. However, my starting weight is “just a tad” bit higher than his was, so thankfully my goal weight isn’t as low as his was.
I should also mention that TequilaCon 2008 is coming up end of next month and I wanna look my best. I’m pretty sure my chances to look my best are quite good when I go where everyone is drunk and can’t see straight.
Maybe I’m destined to write the next best-seller, sure to sweep the nation with a new “diet fad” that will get immense press, great reviews and I’ll be on every talk show out there. I’ll run the whole circuit with celebrity appearances; everyone will want me to visit their town and spread the news about the latest Awesome Thing; I’ll have a scandalous affair with Kirstie Alley (hey, she’s on my list) and then after a year or so the whole thing will die down, but America will be better for it because I was able to touch a few hearts along the way and build amazing memories. That, plus I scored serious bank for my retirement, yo. Then I’ll be able to afford my own Burger King.
I hereby unleash my super cool idea on the world: Eat Less, Do More™
Here’s the concept in two easy steps:
- Eat Less.
- Do More.
Never before has so much geniusness and smartacious intellection been combined in a collective yet together kind of way.
This plan is so easy! No matter where you go, you can incorporate these two incredibly basic ideas into your day.
Some examples:
- Let’s say you go out to dinner. When you start eating your food, remember: Eat Less. Simply put, this means you consume a lower amount of food than you normally would. The end result? You eat less!
- Any time you feel like doing something, just Do More. By doing more, you increase the amount of stuff you do. The added “do-ness” incrementally acts as an additive to what you get done. I know it sounds like magic, but it works.
- When in doubt, Eat Less.
- You might find yourself not doing anything for a while. Why not do something instead? By replacing your “doing nothing” situation with a “doing something” scenario, you mix it up a little. By doing something, you actually Do More!
- Always remember to reduce what you eat while increasing what you do.
- Do More while you Eat Less.
- Eat Less so you may Do More.
Don’t feel daunted by daunting task of tracking the daunting things in life. Instead, try to Do More. While you’re Doing More, remember to Eat Less. Don’t forget the Do More part while you’re eating less, either.
Let’s review.
Eat Less & Do More
We’ve gone over some important concepts in the Eat Less, Do More™ Program, and it’s crucial that you don’t forget what you’re supposed to remember. Remember to Eat Less but don’t forget to Do More. It’s that simple. When you do both at the same time, it’s like they’re combined into one action.
Testimonials (add your own in the comment section):
“There was a time in my life where I didn’t know what to do. I took Wayne’s fabulous Eat Less, Do More™ Program and now I know the secret! He taught me the principles I needed to understand what it really meant to Eat Less and Do More. Thank you, Wayne!”
– A.N., New York
“I was lost until I found Wayne. His understanding of the Eat Less, Do More™ Program far surpassed my expectations. I had no idea it could be so simple! I’m going to Eat Less, Do More for life!
– D.S, Alabama
“Who knew *I* could Eat Less? Amazing!”
– J.T., California
“I never thought I could Do More. I’ve seen others do it, but always figured it was for someone else. But guess what? Now I’m doing more!”
K.P., Michegan
“I really appreciated Wayne’s approach for teaching people his approach to the Eat Less, Do More™ Program. At first, I mixed up the concepts and was eating more and doing less, but Wayne quickly pointed out that I needed to eat LESS. I needed to DO more. Once he re-explained everything, I knew my third time through his course would be a success.”
G.R., Oregon
This post reminded me of Mad TV’s skit “Eat Less, Move More”. You can find the clip of it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKs0oEIVOck
soupuss – DANGIT! I completely wrote this from scratch, but I admit that while I was writing it, I thought… “why didn’t someone think of this before?” So thanx for pointing it out

Faiqa – That’s my next scheme – Get Less, Pay More.
Dear Mr. Hall,
I must admit, I was a skeptic. I been through other couplet programs without success:
Eat More, Do Less – Boy, this one sure felt good — and if it feels good, it can’t be wrong, right? Wrong!
Eat Less, More Often – I’ve known. People to. Have success. With this. But it. Just didn’t. Work out. For me.
Tweet More, Blog Less – I found this to be unsatisfying, but an easy program to follow. I didn’t lose any weight, though.
Sleep More, Work Less – By far, the best of the bunch. In fact… . I probably should’ve slept more, as I did find it difficult to snack while sleeping.
But then, I found your program. It’s like a miracle. I can’t believe you’ve finally found that magical formula that’s been eluding me all these years. You should be awarded a Nobel prize for this! Or maybe a Pulitzer or an Oscar or something.
Thinly yours,
Makuuchi Yokozuna
PS: Might you have any career suggestions for a former professional Sumo wrestler?

Avitable – I’m not sure I understand the concept. What do I do when I see the food? Also, when do I get to eat the food? It’s really unclear.
Ren – If you order now, we’ll throw in our add-on bonus package “Be Su, Mo Less.” You’ll feel like you’ve completely left the old you behind.
Are you eating less vegan style or just eating less vegans.

I’m sorry, but you are now infringing on my own GOYFA Diet Plan ™… as in Get Off Your Fat Ass. You’ll be hearing from my lawyers.
kapgar´s last blog post..Moment of surrender…
kapgar – … as soon as you get up from the couch. yeah, I know, I’ve heard it before.
Wah, you are a genius. I am going to try this out. Yesterday I think I followed Avi’s diet and it made me gain 1.4 lbs. I saw ice cream, chips, chease, burgers, fries, peanut M&Ms and ice cream again, as well as a lot of full-calorie soda, and I ate/drank it all. Apparently that is the opposite of what I was supposed to do.
Also, when instructed to walk back down some stairs by the movie theater people who said “the line starts downstairs” I decided to do less and stay right where I was.

That makes it a lot funnier.
Wait, so you’re saying that I have to actually eat less and do more? There’s no fancy diet pill to make it all go away overnight? Wow, you are a genius!

So me sweating like crazy at the gym and counting those points every day means nothing? Your plan is better? Seriously? I must try it.

Robin – the sweating means a lot to me.
My wife and I have been trying to eat less since we’ve been together. We often share a meal most places we go, or if we both want different entree’s then we find a place that has a “Sized Right, Priced Right” list of menu items.
Of course, this week, all bets are off.
But I like your idea of trying to look good for TequilaCon 2009. I think I best get on the fast track myself (have you seen my chin lately?)

why, have you lost it somewhere?
I’s certainly like to lose it, that’s for sure.

It’s a good appriach, but there’s more than just “eat less” – instead, focus on checking labels for words like “hydrogenated” or “high fructose” and other elements that are nasty to the body and difficult to metabolize, and just skip these!

(sorry for the incorrect comment reply earlier)
So, are you trying to tell me that eating more and doing less is bad? Because I will have none of that, Mister! I am not buying yo program!
