• Another night of fun

  Thursday, January 31st, 2008

  The Princess had a volleyball class tonight, so I decided that I should go work out while she was in her class. And being the kind of Dad I am, that is what we did. And I am paying for it right now.
  Of course I could still be feeling the after [...]

• Hold on to yourself ’cause this is gonna hurt like hell

  Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

  I am stuck, stuck, stuck. And I am not liking it. Eating way too much cheese, and cheating way too many carbs.

  The hardest part of weight loss for me is taking responsiblity. I would love to have someone to blame for all of this. Someone to point the finger at. [...]

• Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I haven’t been around lately

  Monday, January 28th, 2008

  I would to tell you that I have finally broken through down to the 260’s.
  But I can’t.
  Still struggling with the 280’s.
  Still.
  Though all of my pants have gotten really loose. The scale is unrelenting.
  Bastard.
  My work got on top of me for the last week. That is why I haven’t been around much. [...]

• The beast awakens.

  Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

  Two interesting tidbits of news from the world, about products I wrote about on my other blog.
  The first being about a weight loss surgery where a band is put around the upper part of your stomach. It is called a lap band. Well, it seems that this procedure is very popular in Australia, [...]

• Big day at the Dr. office

  Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

  Went to see the Dr. today about the knee. Not much to report. He looked at the x-rays, and asked what kind of pain I was having, and pretty much told me to take it easy for the week. After this week I can go back to the gym, and use the [...]

• First day back

  Monday, January 21st, 2008

  First day in over a week back to the gym. And it was an ok workout. I went to have blood drawn for my physical next week, and had to do a 12 hour fast. That wasn’t the big deal I thought that it would be. Unless you want to talk [...]

• No gym for you!

  Friday, January 18th, 2008

  In a tragic comedy of errors, I have not been able to hit the gym at all this week. I hate long absences from working out, because that means that you lose your momentum. And I need as much momentum as I can get.
  My work schedule eases up a bit next week, so [...]

• Not everyone will want to read this

  Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

  Atkins is a special diet in that you know when you are losing weight, because you are going to the bathroom. No excretion, no weight loss. And when there is no excretion, your abdomen pooches out. Until you poop, or urinate. And then the pooch goes away.
  So the part you don’t [...]

• Not the numbers I was wanting to see

  Monday, January 14th, 2008

  I picked up 10 lbs.
  Not happy. But, if you look at some of the crap I was eating. Well, lets just say that you reap what you sow.
  Now, back in the saddle once again. Once I hit the big 250, then I have discussed with MLW that I [...]

• Helloooooooo….Anyone out there?

  Sunday, January 13th, 2008

  Of my now 4, count them, 4 blogs this is one has the least traffic. Must be that people don’t want to hear my whining about being sore, or the my knee hurts, or that sugar is going to be the death of my.
  Too bad. I am still going to be bitching about [...]
