Last week I lost 7.4 Pounds, this week ended up being a gain of 0.2 Pounds.  This is normal with what I have seen with my weight loss.  Large losses are usually followed by a small change in the scale the following week (or sometimes a decent gain).  Lets see how I did this week, [...]

Gaining Weight For No Good Reason

Sometimes weight loss does not make sense.  It can make the overall journey very hard.  As of Saturday morning I was down 1.2 pounds, then after my hard work out on Saturday my weight spiked the next morning and stayed that way on Monday.  If you check my blog something similar happened starting back in [...]

Last Weeks Weight: 232.2 pounds This Weeks Weight: 229.4 pounds Weight lost: 2.8 pounds MFD Estimated loss: 1.4 pounds Total weight loss: 86.6 pounds This was one of those strange weeks.  Per my estimates I should have only lost 1.4 pounds, but I ended up losing twice that.  I am in no way complaining but [...]

For a 6 week period I had only lost 3.6 pounds.  I had let some of my eating habits slip just enough where those 2 pounds per week started becoming ½ a pound average per week.  This is not acceptable.  Since I started posting my weekly updates here I have taken back my weight loss [...]

265andfalling Marathon Challenge: Update 3

by Ron December 6, 2009

The last few days have been rather chaotic for me from an emotional standpoint. Without getting into it (because it’s not really anyone’s business), let’s just say that I’ve felt a little too distracted to get any walking done. There was even a point when I considered my time in this challenge done because my [...]

265andfalling Marathon Week: Day 4

by Steve265 December 5, 2009

Before I get into anything, I done messed something up.  When I set up the original challenge I apparently set it up as goal based instead of time based, so when I posted my numbers for today I “won” the challenge, it ended, and it wouldn’t let me edit anything.  So I had to recreate [...]
