reboot

by rev.todd February 17, 2009

I have some victories in the last few months and i want to celebrate those victories while adding some additional goals to them. The victories I have attained are not enough to get me where I want to be, and I realize that, but they are a few steps in the right direction. I have [...]

Weigh-in: Year 3, Week 36

by Charles February 17, 2009

I fell flat on my face this week, figuratively. I had a really rough week at work thanks to extra work created by a database corruption that left me being about four days behind on my workload. That helped me none as far as the stress and the associated consumption. I also ate poorly over [...]

In Sickness and In Health

by Charles February 16, 2009

I find it fascinating that I’ve been with Weight-Watchers for over two and a half years and not once has the subject of illness or medical conditions been directly addressed. Naturally, their own program material covers the situation of pregnancy, but what happens in the following situations: Common cold or flu: you’re told to drink [...]

Weekend weight loss journey. Exercise and food

by Rick February 16, 2009

I did good on my program this weekend but I was on the very edge of going off on a junk food binge. I wanted to soo bad. It was not so much a craving but a yearning to rebel completely against WW and self-control. After “discussing” the difficult patch with some of you and [...]

Bye-bye Resolutioners

by Rick February 16, 2009

Cross-posted at Waste the Waist The gym this morning was pretty empty. I guess it never did fill up like the quickie articles (blurbs?) in Men’s Health or MSN threatened it would, but still there was a perceptible bump up in numbers. That’s gone now. The pair of women in their late 50s don’t show. [...]

Major NSV for me last night

by Rick February 15, 2009

Cross posted at antimattr.net I had a major NSV (Non Scale Victory for anyone not on Weight Watchers) yesterday. We went to the in-laws for dinner, and I really struggle with not overeating there. I feel a little disconnected, it’s really loud, and there’s always way more food than necessary, and often it’s not terribly [...]

Morning Run

by Rick February 15, 2009

Cross Posted at Losing Inspiration Clipped from Nike+ Went to a Birthday party last night for 3 people at once. Needless to say it was “epic”. Had a lot of fun, beer and finger foods so I didn’t even bother trying to calculate my intake yesterday. I had a late breakfast and no lunch so [...]

Inspiring run makes me thankful that I can run at all.

by Rick February 12, 2009

I love a wonderful sunset, especially when I am on one of my weekly runs. I just seems to turn a normal run into an epic adventure where I experience life in a different and more “living” way. It brings me to the moment, that specific moment, where I am not thinking of the past [...]

Beck Diet Solution – Day 7

by Rick February 11, 2009

Cross posted at antimattr.net Arrange Your Environment It’s important to remove food temptations as much as possible, and where you can’t remove them, try to rearrange your environment to make them less tempting. Move tempting items to a high shelf or out of site, get rid the food items that are really triggering, ask for [...]
