Just Call Me Duncan

Posted by Rick in Other blogs, Weigh-In, Weight Loss.

I’m still yo-yoing between 235 and 237. Just call me Duncan. At least I’m not getting any heavier than that, so hopefully things will pull forward again soon. It’s getting better weather here now, so hopefully more walking is in the near future. I seem to do better when I have some kind of routine, and the routine has been suffering as of late, so maybe that’s partly to blame for my lack of attention to exercise and eating healthier. Thanks again for all those who are supporting me.

Speaking of supporting someone, I just got a visit from my buddy Greg, from http://www.fatguyblog.com. He’s still hanging in there, he just hasn’t had much time to blog lately. His heel spurs are still acting up, though, so exercise for him has been much lessened. I tried to give him some encouragement. I enjoyed his visit, even though I wish I wouldn’t have been at work and spent more time with him. Greg is one of those guys whho, even though I haven’t known him that long, I feel I can talk to him about nearly anything. He’s a lot of fun to talk to, and I’m grateful that his blog led me to contact him and make a new friend. We have a lot of similar interests and I always am enlightened in some ways when he has time to visit. I know a lot of you that read my blog also read his, so I thought I would let you know he is doing okay.

    Maybe we need to make this guy a FatBlogger? Blogging is a great way to make connections with other people. That I’ve been able to sustain my motivation and level of commitment for 6 weeks now I think is due in large part to the blogging community. Specifically, my FatBlogging brethren and all those who stop by to visit.

    I completely agree with the routine. As I get more into this, I find that my week days do a lot better than my weekends. And that’s even with the best of planning.

    Heck, invite him! I like having a community place to post. Greg is a great writer, too. He’d add a lot. I’ve enjoyed reading about y’all too. Its helped to make better choices sometimes (although, like this morning, not ALL the time :-( ).

    Tell you what, we’ll both put a bug in his ear and hopefully convince him to get on board the FatBloggers bus.
