Weight Loss Update

Another loss, after what was essentially three weeks of taking it easy, knowing I wasn’t going to be standing on a scale that counted. I went into earnest mode this week, and was a very good boy at pool leage last night, both in my play (I won) and in my consumption (I had [...]

Weight Loss Update

A minor loss, but a loss all the same.  This coming week will be filled with some tough situations, since I know I’ll be eating out for dinner every night from tonight through Saturday night, plus Sunday morning.  And I won’t be working out on Friday night.
But, a reprieve is granted!  My group leader for [...]

Weight Loss Update

More success!  I was worried at first, given I had a week off from the gym, and I really didn’t make the best choices in food, especially this weekend.  But getting back on the gym was a big help, and it paid off.  3 pounds in two weeks is a little off the pace from [...]

Weight Loss Update

I did it! Fifty pounds lost. 50.6, techincally. I worked hard this week — I even went to the gym on Monday despite it being a holiday, and the payoff was totally worth it. I’m going to try to not slack off, because if I can actually maintain a 5 pound [...]

Weight Loss Update

Sigh. I expected a bad week, but I got one in spades. No excuses, just reasons — too much food with too little exercise. I blew off the gym Thursday, Friday, and Tuesday. Combine that with some not-so-healthy choices and I pay for it.
It’s okay. This week I’ll make sure [...]

Another loss, which is always good.  I’d have liked to have done better this week, but I’m guessing my weekend activities (which included the ever dreadful pair of drinking and pizza) would preclude me from having a stellar week.  But it’s a good loss nonetheless.
Next week, I cross 50 lbs gone.  Without question.

The whole weight loss journey

Some folks are discovering this blog, which is cool. First up, I’ve made sure all my Weight Loss Updates point to where I’m charting my progress, so you can see the big picture. My immediate goal is to hit 50 off my Weight Watchers starting weight from the beginning of February. But [...]

Not too bad this week. I didn’t expect anything like last week’s loss since the weekend in Omaha was not a healthy eating weekend, plus I lost a workout on Friday last week due to the travel.
Still, 1.4 pounds down. Getting closer to 50 total lost. I should hit it [...]

Woohoo!
Picked up a lot of momentum this week. My workouts have been going well, though they’ve changed slightly. I only got 4 in last week (and will likely only get 4 in this week as well), but I’ve tried making them more difficult.
Currently, I do at least 3MPH on the treadmill, [...]

Weight Loss Update

Woo, much better! I was a pretty good boy this past week, worked out regularly, stayed mostly honest through the weekend, and it paid off. Sure, I couldn’t pass up a plate of Gnocchi at Calo’s but we’re not often in that part of town. Plus we walked a good half hour in [...]
