Weekly Weigh-In 243.5 lbs. I gained back a little over half a pound, but I’m not too concerned about it. We’ve had some record heat this past week and it probably has to do with all the water I’ve been sucking down. I’ll be glad when I’m finally acclimated to the heat again. Details Mode… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 19

Weekly Weigh-In 242.9 lbs. As I expected, I gained a bit back from the unexpectedly large weight drop I saw last week. I’m back at a number that seems more correct. My best guess is that I had spent a lot of time out in the sun and may have been a bit dehydrated when… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 18

Weekly Weigh-In 240.8 lbs. This was a pretty drastic shift. I weighed myself several times to make sure I was getting a good measurement. While I normally wouldn’t encourage dropping five pounds in a week, I’ll take this one. This past week was unseasonably hot, it very well could have been excess water weight that… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 17

Weekly Weigh-In 245 lbs. Well, that’s not the direction I want to be going, however I’ll cut myself a little slack given that I had a whole week off prior to this one and my diet hasn’t been the cleanest over the past two weeks. Frankly, I’m kind of surprised that I only gained 1.5… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 16

Weekly Weigh-In ? lbs. On the tail of the previous craptastic week, I doubled down and had an even worse one. I didn’t make it into the gym one time this week. In fact, my physical activity was the least it’s been in months and my whole body felt worse for it. Details Mode It… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 15

Weekly Weigh-In 244 lbs. This week has been kind of a craptastic week. Some weeks it’s just like that. I did shed another half pound however, which continues to surprise me. I think I’m seeing some benefits from my supplement combination…which might be a good separate post, come to think of it. Details Mode It… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 14

Weekly Weigh-In 244.5 lbs. Yes, you betcha I’m counting that half pound. After the previous week, I’m literally flabbergasted that I lost anything. The swelling in my gut, especially my lower gut, is decreasing. My upper belly is still a bit distended and taut. This is due to the visceral fat stored there. The testosterone… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 13

Weekly Weigh-In 245 lbs. Given the week that I’ve had, this is actually kind of amazing. It’s been a week best summed up by Bill the Cat. If you’re too young to immediately get this pop culture reference, do yourself a favor and click the link. Details Mode It was a high rep/low weight week.… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 12

I entered the gym today feeling excited about my workout. It’s the fourth and last gym day of the week, my circuit training day. This is something that I’ve added into my regular weekly routine recently and it’s been a real nice change of pace. The thing about circuit training is that you have to… Continue reading Rantastic Gym Stories: Texty McTexterface

Weekly Weigh-In 246 lbs. I’m glad to see that number starting to drop again. That makes 7 pounds in 11 weeks. In my photo over there, I’m actually wearing a smaller pair of sweats than what I’ve been wearing for the past couple of years. Not gonna lie, I’m eager to dig into my smaller… Continue reading Progress Log: Week 11
