The Impossible Journey

May 10, 2010

Sometimes I wonder why I even try. I’m doing great with my weight loss, and the journey truly is just getting started, but sometimes I face challenges that make me question the entire thing. Willpower is my biggest foe, and I’ve already succumb to temptation several times since I’ve begun going along my current path. [...]

Failures and Successes

May 10, 2010

Seems the harder I try, and the more I want to succeed, the harder my journey becomes. I faced temptations over the last week and succumbed to each and every one. I did pull myself back up each and every time, but I still am not proud of some of the things I’ve had these [...]

Not Sure What I Ate – Daily Update

April 19, 2010

Well, that’s not necessarily true. It’s not like I’m not tracking what it is I ate, I’m just not sure how bad / good it was for me. The meal I’m referring to is lunch. We decided to hit a local favorite Mexican restaurant, El Agave. Usually I’ll get a heart stoppingly huge (and delicious) [...]

One Month Mark – Weekend Update

April 19, 2010

So, just before this weekend, I passed the one month mark of my new diet journey. I’ve had ups and downs, but so far, no serious derailments. I’ve had my cheats, though I swore I never work. I guess everyone has to cheat every so often, or a serious derailment is inevitable. This morning I [...]

Loss of Willpower

April 16, 2010

I was doing so good! Yesterday I had a banana for breakfast, and Applebee’s Asiago Peppercorn Steak (with extra veggies) for lunch. Then last night I had the Social Media Club event to go to. Even then I did great, avoiding the beer and having a GIANT bottle of water (in glass no less). When [...]

Exercise is harder than I thought – Mid-Week Update

April 15, 2010

It’s been a few days since my last update, so I figured everyone was chomping at the bit to see how things were going. As I stated in my last update, I was going to incorporate exercise into my routine. I’m not mentally ready to head back into the gym yet, but I’ve got some [...]

Updates in General – What’s up with the Site?

April 12, 2010

It’s been a few weeks since I actually wrote an actual update to the blog.  I apologize for that, but don’t be worried.  I have not fallen off the bandwagon, as is usually the case.  Life has somewhat taken over, and I’m just so busy working on my day job and promoting my freelance work [...]

Updates Galore!

March 29, 2010

Well, it’s been a few days since I’ve really posted an update. First and foremost, let me apologize. I’ve had some internet issues and getting online to do updates has been very difficult the last few days. I’m happy to announce that my internet difficulties have been resolved, at least for now, and everything SHOULD [...]

Stress is Not My Friend – Daily Update

March 24, 2010

This morning was a pretty average morning.  Nothing really special for the most part.  I got into the office and began my work day with my cup of coffee in hand.  I began working through my task list when suddenly, new tasks starting coming in from all directions.  Seemed everyone suddenly needed everything immediately and [...]

Time for Updates! Daily Update and Weigh-in…

March 23, 2010

First off, let me apologize for the lack of updates.  I’ve had some internet connection issues at home, and I’ve been so overloaded at work that updating there was completely out of the question.  So, what have I been doing the last two days?   First, lets start with the weigh-in.  Tomorrow was the official [...]
