I must be doing something right

The scale is not my friend but today I can say that it is no longer my enemy. I had decided to quit worrying about it and just concentrate on the process that I was involved in. My food consumption was based more on energy and hunger than trying to alter my weight. I am to the point where I can... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday was my free day but "free" is a relative word

I used to have my free days on Sundays but I have changed them to Mondays. That's the one night that I get to spend some time with my wife. Yes, I have a wife. I know she doesn't make it into my blogs very often. There are two reasons for this. The first of which is that I just don't talk about her... Sign in to see full entry.

Running on hills in one of the flattest places on the earth

Here's what Wikipedia has to say about the Bonneville Salt Flats: "The area is extremely flat and nearly aligned perfectly with the shape of the Earth, allowing visitors to see the curvature of the planet by producing an optical illusion that makes many of the mountains within the vicinity appear to...

The beginning of the new running week

Today begins the new running week for me. Sundays will be when I do my long run when I get to the point where I have a long run. The way things are going, that could be some time from now. Work has dictated part of my running schedule but it works out nicely. I don't run on Friday and Saturday... Sign in to see full entry.

I think I'll take a little break from my archnemisis

I didn't weigh myself today and I don't think that I will for a while. I can't believe I have been trying for about 6 weeks now with absolutely no change. Maybe I'm at my ideal weight. I somehow need to get rid of the extra bit of idealism that is hanging around my stomach. =) Yesterday and today... Sign in to see full entry.

Tired, Retired, and Pretired

Last night I didn't run because I was tired. I didn't sleep very well the night before and when 1am came around, I just wanted to go to sleep. So I did. Today I will be going to work at 1pm and I will be coming home sometime between 1am and 3am. So I'll be tired again today. Re-tired. Then I'll have... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday was another good day

No weight change this morning but that's okay for now. I'm back within my normal range and had a good day yesterday. I'm feeling my ab muscles this morning. I didn't really work my abs that much yesterday but I did the previous couple of days so maybe that's why they are sore. Trey and I went for... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday was a much better day, that's how it should go

Nearly everything went according to the emergency plan and it showed today on the scale. Back down to 205 pounds. Within my normal range. I'm going to try and create a new normal range so I'll keep with the new plan for now. I ate less yesterday than I have in the past few days. I also cut way back... Sign in to see full entry.

Last night, in my sleep, I think I must have visited the Krispy Kreme

I lost a pound a day for two days and was feeling pretty good about myself. Last night, I had kind of a big dinner. I didn't think it was huge but it was big. A friend treated my wife and I to buffet. I don't go crazy in the buffet because I have eaten at them for the last 10 months. Usually I get... Sign in to see full entry.

Bringing the weight down despite my efforts at sabotage =)

I was 206 on Saturday morning, 205 on Sunday, and this morning I weighed in at 204. I haven't done any running yet. I was going to run last night but I ate too much too late. All the security managers were treated to a nice dinner because the Olivia Newton John concert went nice and smooth. I ate a... Sign in to see full entry.
