The Long Haul

by John T July 27, 2007

Tony commented on my Week 30 post: Nice job John! Keep up the great work. 30 weeks is along time. It’s very impressive and inspiring to see how dedicated you still are. He is not the first person to say something along that vein. I have mentioned the diets I’ve been on, the money I’ve [...]

Weigh-In Week 7

by Tony July 27, 2007

251.8! That’s what the scale said this morning. A loss of 5.4lbs. I apologize for any whining I may have done last week. My perceived disappointment at what was a great loss last week helped me really kick it in gear for an amazing loss this week. Thank you everyone for the encouragement. Have a [...]

Week 30 Weigh-In

by John T July 26, 2007

I am noticing that many of my favorite blogs have been kinda sparse lately. I am guessing that they, just like me, are also spending every spare moment reading… The Deathly Hallows. Now that I have finished my work week, I should be finished with it by the weekend. This morning, I took a break [...]

Dump All Your Fat Friends

by Tony July 26, 2007

According to this recent study it could be dangerous to be my friend, at least for another couple of months. I found this study to be pretty ridiculous, but what I find even more ridiculous is the media hype. This was the lead story on the front page of the paper this morning. This is [...]

My new favorite restaurant

by Rick July 25, 2007

As a dedicated calorie counter (I try to limit to 1200 calories per day), I’ve found a new favorite (chain) restaurant.  It’s Uno Chicago Grill.  Now, I admit may seem like an unusual, and possibly terrible choice for someone on a diet.  After all, their signature single serving deep dish pizzas start at 1700 calories, and go as high [...]

Running In The Rain

by Tony July 25, 2007

I had every excuse not to get out and walk/run yesterday. I had a 2 hour lunch meeting which knocked out my usual workout time. I was home alone with my two girls last night. It was 90 degrees out. It was raining. I was settled in for the night playing with the girls when [...]

Don't Eat This Book

by Rick July 24, 2007

You may remember a film from a few years back called Supersize Me.  A guy named Morgan Spurlock decides to eat nothing but McDonald’s for a whole month, and then chronicles his health and well-being throughout the process.  I have to confess I haven’t seen the movie yet, but I did pick up a copy [...]

Hiatus, kinda

by Rick July 21, 2007

I’m moving in about ten days, so I had our DSL turned off yesterday.  We had some withdrawals for a while, but I think we’re feeling better now.  Anyway, I’ll only be on here itinerantly during that time, just whenever I can duck into a coffee shop or hit the library for the next week [...]
