Progress Log: Week 08
Weekly Weigh-In It was a good week. I weighed in at a static 249, which I’m pretty happy with, given all the non-diet friendly food I ate from Friday night through Tuesday. The beginning of the week started out great. I went and picked my son up from his friend’s house in Lebanon on Saturday… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 08

Weekly Weigh-In All right! I’m getting back on track, finally. I weighed in this week at 249. It feels good to drop below that 250 milestone. It’s been awhile since I’ve been here. My last “good weight” that I have on record was January 13th, 2019. I weighed in at 192. This was the week… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 07
Maneuvering That Interview

Progress Log: Week 06
Weekly Weigh-In Surprisingly, given the previous week of rehabilitation from a neck injury, I remained at 250 lbs. I didn’t do anything special other than stayed in slight caloric deficit, and it wasn’t even an issue for me. It wasn’t the kind of caloric deficit that rewards me with weight loss, but I actually ate… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 06

crested scravel hill as black horizon smudged against the sky charcoal rubbed to soft edges against a deepening cerulean backdrop… the first rose, graceful up above blown-ink treetops fat, effulgent orange chinese lanterns against the eastern mountain skyline cavalcade ensued in bursts of backlit magenta, canary yellow, azure blue flames grumbled in charcoal baskets burst… Continue reading skyfire celebration – 1995
Progress Log: Week 05
Weekly Weigh-In 250 lbs I dropped another pound on the scale, which had me pretty happy. This is the rate I like to see. Low, slow, and consistent. Details My low weight/high rep week started off pretty good on Sunday, despite some residual neck pain I had from my make up core workout the day… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 05
