It's Weigh-in Time

by Rick June 20, 2007

It’s been 5 weeks since my last fatbloggers weigh-in, so I figure I’m way past due for an update!  The last month has been hectic to an insane degree, having to finalize and release a big software project for work.  Well, two days ago the release was completed, out the door, done.  It feels good [...]

Week 15 Weigh-in: Post-vacation edition

by Rick June 19, 2007

And the pattern continues.  Heck if I can figure it out.  Big week, followed by a little week, followed by another big week.  Last week was less than a pound lost.  This week, I am down 5.8 pounds for a total of 52.8 pounds lost since March 6.  I’m within eight pounds of my goal weight.  [...]

We're ba-ack

by Rick June 18, 2007

We got back at 11pm last night, a little earlier than expected, but we had a great time.  I’m happy to report that the worst thing I had since my last report was the ham and cheese omelette at Denny’s yesterday morning.  And that was my major meal of the day.  We didn’t have an [...]

On the road

by Rick June 14, 2007

Day 1 of our vacation.  I packed a cooler full of yogurts, string cheese, granola bars, Diet Coke, etc… all of the stuff that I would consume when I’m at home.  Not a problem.  Dinner tonight was at Applebee’s, where they have a part of their menu that shows the Weight Watchers points.  I chose [...]

Week 25 Weigh-In

by John T June 14, 2007

After achieving my 10% goal last week and the accompanying hoop-la, I got a bit neurotic about whether I would be able to have a ‘loss’ this week. Making that number last week was my all-consuming focus for the last month and to not have it there, well, I felt that I had lost focus. [...]
