Coughing my way through dead birds…

by Chris September 27, 2010

This past week has been a bit of a bust. Unfortunately, Seb had to postpone my training session from last Monday and we rescheduled to later in the week. By the time Thursday rolled around, it was official. I was sick. I still am. And I hate it. Some people say that if your cold [...]

Big time

by Chris September 19, 2010

Bless me bloggers, for I have sinned. It has been three months since my last blog post… And this is what I’ve been up to… Now that I’ve got that flashback to Catholicism out of my way… I can get on with this post. LOL. Indeed, it has been three months since my last posting. [...]

Six days, six hundred kilometers, six thousand dollars…

by Chris June 6, 2010

It wasn’t soon after posting my last blog that I began to receive messages from readers telling me not to be so hard on myself, to be proud of what I’ve accomplished, and in one case, to chill the F&%K out. First of all… thanks for the feedback. Secondly, I realize that I am incredibly [...]

I feel like I’m dragging my feet…

by Chris May 7, 2010

In the past four months, I will admit that I’ve been neglecting my blog a bit. Well, quite a bit. I haven’t been taking the time to think, to write, and to reflect as much on this journey because.. well, I think subconsciously, part of me thought the journey had come to a bit of [...]

You must feel sooo different!

by Chris April 12, 2010

This is not an uncommon thing for me to hear these days… and it’s something I’ve been thinking about for the past two months or so. That’s partially why I haven’t posted anything in that time. But I’ve also been terribly busy. I finally wrote my comprehensive exam for my PhD, and have been spending [...]

…and the student becomes the teacher. Literally.

by Chris February 20, 2010

So, I realize that I’ve not blogged for a little while… it has been a few weeks at least, and admittedly, there’s a part of me that wants to only write when I feel like I have something important to say. And since my last post, I’ve accomplished one of my goals for 2010. I [...]

Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear….

by Chris January 26, 2010

So, it has been almost a month since I last posted. For some reason, I haven’t had much to say. To be honest, I think I’ve been taking it a bit easy — that is, I haven’t been in my head too much about losing weight. I’ve been spending more time trying to make a [...]

Impossibility is… impossible.

by Chris January 1, 2010

It’s that time of year again when many people reflect upon the previous year, wondering what could have been, and contemplate the year ahead, dreaming of what could possibly be. While I’ve never been a huge fan of resolutions (mainly because I’m no good at keeping them), two years ago, I promised myself I would [...]

The only way to never go back…

by Chris December 2, 2009

I’ve done it once again. Six months ago, I set a goal to lose another 50 pounds in 6 months — an ambitious goal, yes. But not an impossible one. Why 50 pounds? Because dropping 50 pounds in 6 months would bring me to a very special place — to a monumental moment in my [...]
