My weekend thus far

by Rick December 4, 2011

This is a confessional of sorts.  Or maybe not.  Maybe it’s just an affirmation that I can have fun and let loose sometimes while staying within my limitations. My wife and I headed to the big city this weekend, and I’ve had not one, not two, but three meals in separate brewpubs here in Oregon. [...]

Weigh-in

by Rick November 30, 2011

Two weeks ago:  261.8 Tonight: 260.8 Weight lost this week: 1 pound Total weight lost: 10 pounds Since this was a two-week weigh-in, I was hoping for a bigger loss, but I’ll take it. Maybe I didn’t do as well over Thanksgiving break as I thought?  On the other hand, I’ve been doing this for [...]

The Tipping Point

by Rick November 28, 2011

I just changed the name of own personal weight loss blog to South of 260.That’s not my ideal weight, my starting weight, or anything like that. It’s my tipping point. It’s where I quit feeling like a fat guy and start to notice a big change around my middle, in my energy level, and overall [...]

Thanksgiving check-in

by Rick November 26, 2011

Image via Wikipedia Some other blogs that I do have kind of gotten in the way of me posting here like I used to, but I did want to check in to maintain my progress online. We didn’t have a weigh-in this last Wednesday, so my ‘official’ weight remains at what it was since then. [...]

Back to the weight loss… fast forward to week 3

by rev.todd November 25, 2011

I am back in the battle to lose weight. I eclipsed the heaviest I have ever been by 1 pound so now I am on the quest to lose 100 pounds. I am going to the gym 3 – 5 times a week and watching what I eat, but not counting anything at this point. [...]

Weigh-in

by Rick November 17, 2011

I’m at week 4. I actually haven’t weighed in since the first week of Weight Watchers, so i was really curious to see how I did.  Down 9 pounds, which makes sense. When I’m losing weight, especially at the outset, I average 2-3 pounds a week.  I’ve got more to post, but man things are [...]

Not giving up

by John Bonk March 21, 2011

Well, when I started writing here I expected to have many other people blogging here also.  Recently johnisfit has been sort of missing and the only other current writer barely writes (and not much when he does).  I am not done blogging by any means but I will just be putting updates on my own [...]

Pulling in the reins and starting a new semester

by Pie January 26, 2011

It has been a little over a month since my last posting. By making some small strides i reigned in on my eating habits to more healthy choices and less junk ones high in fat and whatever else may be lurking in it which gave me a small boost of a 5 pound weight loss. [...]

I smiled so much my cheeks hurt…

by Chris June 19, 2009

This past week, I went to the annual conference of my professional association, the Canadian Association of College and University Student Services (CACUSS). The conference was a four-day event, hosted at my alma mater, the University of Waterloo. I have to admit, I was feeling a wee bit anxious about going, not only because these [...]
