All that ranting last night resulted in something productive. I signed up for Weight Watchers again! I’m only doing the online kind, I would hate going to meetings. My starting weight, this morning, is 199.7 and my goal is 10% which is 180. I’m doing the flex plan, which is how I lost 34 lbs [...]

Blah Blah Diet Again
So I’m a member of a site called FatSecret.com, which is a funny name but they have good food/exercise tracking tools. It’s similar to SparkPeople (which I’ve used in the past) but has a better look to it IMHO. I have been hovering at 200 pounds for a long time. I wear size 14/16 on [...]
StickK with It
I heard an article about StickK.com on NPR this morning. It’s a website that makes you put up money and if you don’t lose weight, you lose the money (to charity). I signed up with a 52-week goal of losing 37 pounds and a commitment of $2/week. If I lose at least the required amount [...]
Xmas 2007
Xmas 2007 is over! Whew. It was not too bad, though I was worried all day about the money situation I posted about a couple of days ago. I got to eat a little more than my diet normally allows, but today my wife is back to being strict and I only got to eat [...]
Shoppingks
Mischa keeps having bad dreams. He woke up hissing a little while ago, and just now he was growling in his sleep. Today we went to the outlets at Leesburg; it was more crowded than I would have liked, but less crowded than I expected. I needed to go to Lane Bryant to exchange some [...]
More Weight Stuff
I really, seriously, truly need to lose weight. A few reasons why. I am surrounded by skinny people. Natural ectomorphs, hardcore swimmers, and teens who are too young to have gotten fat yet. (I was that size when I was in college too.) My pants do not freaking fit. Seriously, I have like one pair [...]
Meds
Note to self: if you are having a very bad day and you forget to take your meds in the morning, it will turn into an even worse day when your hives sneak up on you. Also, if you are on steroids that make you hungry, and then hang out with people who are doing [...]
Want to Buy
Geeking ensues, then some philosophical stuff. I want to spend money! I think I am going to get the wireless headphones via Amazon. Unfortunately they come from a seller who charges almost $12 for shipping, but it’s still better than finding it slightly cheaper on eBay and having to pay out-of-pocket. As long as I [...]
Diet Depression
I thought I was going to make it through the day without eating anything off my diet. But I had a couple of bites of pecan pie, and I had more than a few handfuls of trail mix. No wonder I’m not losing any weight at all – I’m still totally sedentary and I’m still [...]
Candy Cat
I had way too much candy yesterday. I kept a lot of it fat-free, but it was still a lot of sugar! Of course there’s still candy all over the place at work, but yesterday was candy day and now I’m going to try going cold turkey again. Also, nothing makes you feel like a [...]
