Stats Update: 
Weight 162.8
Waist 32.0
I’ve lost an inch and a half off my waist which is great. I’m getting all kinds of compliments so I guess that something is working. I’ve been on a steady downswing with my weight for a couple of weeks and have almost gotten fully back on track after a disappointing 8 pound [...]

Today was a good start to my challenge — even though I started the challenge over a week ago, I am really just starting to focus on better eating today. The unexpected death of a work friend threw me into a tailspin and I found comfort in my old standbies — sweets, treats and over-the-top self-indulgence. [...]

I’m still a work in progress and so is my plan for getting ready for summer. I think I’ve come up with a winning combo — at least for the next few weeks. Here it is:

Just came in from a couple days out of town. I took my Saturday pic late this evening. While out of town, I stayed at a hotel that had a great gym — filled with a brand new Precor equipment.

I had a good start today even though I slept in a little later than expected. I did 25.5 minutes on the treadmill at a moderate pace. Had my morning protein shake and a few supplements. Took Day 3 pictures. I am completely hating the whole picture thing but I am hoping that I will [...]

Pictures don’t lie and mine are telling me I have a long way to go. I drank lots of water yesterday, was very controlled in my eating (no binging) and now I’m looking toward another 90 days of the challenge. Seems kind of gray and mechanical to think about 90 days of this but I [...]

I am starting a personal challenge. I want to tighten and tone and lose twenty pounds — really thirty pounds but I’m not sure that’s possible by summer. Some details:
Timeframe: March 1-May 31, 2009
Nutrition & etc.: Lower Carb/Keto plus good fats like flax, fish oil, nuts. I will drink more water, eat more fruits and [...]

I love a snow day. You’d think I was a kid. There’s just something about it. Even on regular days off — holidays and weekends — I keep on working. Checking email, writing reports, touching base with co-workers. But snow days are different. I sleep in, watch bad daytime tv, declutter. All kinds of non-work [...]
