Hello Readers,
My weight loss program took an interesting turn this weekend. Instead of exer-cycling on Thursday and Friday, I drove down to Las Vegas, and walked the 15~20 miles per day at the convention center!
Using Twitter, I found the show management contact and offered my videography services to the BlogWorld Expo 2008 show. They did not have a formal plan to record the video of each session, just audio. I managed to wrangle an unlimited access pass to BlogWorld Expo 2008 in Las Vegas over the weekend.
BlogWorld Expo is a gathering of internet Super Affiliates, Ad Networks, 'thought-leaders' and bloggers and newbies trying to learn how to make a living from their webpages and blogs, in their pajamas.
I spent all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday dragging my video gear all over the South Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. The result...?
I LOST TWO MORE POUNDS! And won a dinner with the top echelon of 'thought-leaders' in Affiliate Marketing and Blogging in the world.

http://donotreadthisblogunless.blogspot.com/The weight loss was due to my not eating as well as I do at home, slamming down a triple-shot grande latte and a bagel at StarBucks, grabbing some snaks, fruit and pasta from the show management offerings, and extreme amounts of bending, lifting, walking and videography covering twenty sessions in two and one-half days!
This was a cool event, and the dinner was really five-star, including Kobe-beef and lobster macaroni, and raspberry chocolate mousse. As I stated before, I ride the exer-cycle 15 miles per day, Mon~Fri and on the weekends I eat!
My goal is still under 200 pounds by next month, October 2008. I'm currently down to 202.5 from an original 215 pounds. My next goal after that will be 185 pounds.
Please leave me a comment below, and I promise to respond.
Respectfully, Nicholas
