Today was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be, at least as far as the diet is concerned.  I pulled myself out of bed this morning, which was difficult due to the time change for Daylight Savings Time.  As you know from my previous post, I was not able to successfully [...]

Official Start – Missing Weigh-In

March 15, 2010

Well, today is the official start of the diet again.  Unfortunately, as I was afraid of, my current weight is beyond the capacity of my scale at home (330lbs).  This only solidifies my fears that I’ve gone well above and beyond the weight that I’d originally started this process at.  My current estimate is about [...]

A New Adventure

March 14, 2010

First, I wish to thank everyone that has followed me and he blog throughout the years. You’ve seen me through my ups, my downs, and my extended periods of silence.

Year 2 – Progress / Story So Far

January 12, 2009

Yes, it’s already day 12 of my 2nd year plan. So far as of this morning, I’ve lost 6lbs since I’ve resumed the diet. Not too shabby, though there was a lot that was regained in my 2 month haitus. 3 more pounds, and I’ll be back to where I left off. This year, I’m [...]

End of the Year – Relaunch

December 29, 2008

Well, here we are… right at the cusp of a brand new year. Some of the goals I set for this point weren’t met, mostly due to just not having the time to dedicate to myself. All in all, it’s my own fault for not meeting the goals I set for myself. But alas, it’s [...]
