The Weigh-In Week 25

by Tony November 30, 2007

223.4. That is what it said on the scale this morning. A gain of 2.4. I guess there are two ways to look at this week. I could be happy that I lost more than half of the weight I gained over the Thanksgiving holiday or I could lament the fact that I have had [...]

Thanksgiving Wrap Up

by Tony November 26, 2007

Some Light Cleaning

by John T November 17, 2007

Moving the Goalpost

by John T November 17, 2007

For most of 2007 I have set a goal for weightloss that I confessed here and ‘in the real world’ was wildly random. I came up with the 196 lb. goal by simply starting with my weight last December (392 lbs.) and cutting it in half. When I would tell people that I know; family, [...]
