Check-in

by Rick January 3, 2012

Well, no excuses to be made here, but for all intents and purposes, I took off a few weeks of Weight Watchers. I’m feeling it, and that’s not a good sign. It’s one thing to feel bad about a day or two of off-program eating, but it’s quite another to go a few weeks without [...]

Weigh-in, week 6

by Rick December 7, 2011

I think it’s week 6, anyway. There was a time when I used to post here every day and knew exactly what day I was on. Here’s the news: Last week: 260.8 This week: 258.4 Weekly loss: 2.4 Net loss: 12.4 I can now say I’m South of 260.  This was a good week despite [...]

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 [...]

Starting over…again

by Rick November 8, 2011

Hi again everybody. Without going back through the entire Fatbloggers storied history, I began this blog back in 2007 when I was beginning a 60-pound weight loss. I went from just a little over three bills to about 240 that year. (I’m 6 ’5”, so that weight works for me.) I’ve stopped and started a [...]
