Dear Walmart
Posted Wednesday, June 23, at 11:04 AM I have a few suggestions that will make my shopping experience better. Please take any and all into consideration. 1.) My new beverage of choice is Coke Zero. I love the stuff. It is like I never even liked Mountain Dew. Occasionally you run out of my preferred 6-pack of 24 ounce bottles. Please consider stocking more...
Ohhhh Crap... So last Tuesday I came home to a garage full of water. Sewer water. Yeah. So being the stressed out wreck that I was, I didn't weigh in last week. Instead, I spent that time making a few phone calls. I called the "La Familia" of local plumbers and all I can say is what a racket. I can't see how anyone can afford them. The rest of the county must make a lot more money than I do...
Lazy Lazy Lazy Man have I been lazy this past couple of weeks. I haven't wanted to do anything. Just plain lazy. Anyhow, two weeks ago I weighed in and lost another .6 pounds. This past week I gained back .4 pounds. I am going to have to figure out some way to get over my case of the lazies...
Little By Little Only .4 pounds this week. Not too shabby for a delicious week. I had Fazoli's and even a Frosty.
Since I am holding my son and typing one handed I am going to keep this short.
I now weigh 297.6 pounds.
Another Pound Bites The Dust That's better. I lost another 1.8 pounds this past week. I now weigh 298 pounds. I have lost a total of 25.4 pounds. I received a chain email last week about the Chinese and Japanese drinking hot tea with their dinner, and doing so reduces ones chances for a heart attack. That got me thinking about the benefits of drinking hot tea...
Easy Come Easy Go And easy come back again. I am very thankful that we don't have a Hardee's in town. I had the pleasure/misfortune of having their breakfast last Saturday morning. I had the sausage, egg, and cheese biscuit. My favorite. Now I am paying for it. Yep, it finally happened. I gained weight. A whole .6 pounds. I still weigh less than 300 though. My current weight is 299.8 pounds...
First Goal. Check. Somehow I must have signed myself up for the livestrong.com emails. I guess I was looking up the nutrition information on some food or another, probably for a restaurant, and somehow signed myself up. Anyway the other day, I received an email about the 10 worst foods for kids and the top 10 snacks to lose weight...
Fat Tuesday Just Like Me Well it's Fat Tuesday once again. I spent all day trying to think of something to talk about. Thing is, my mom started bothering me about needing to write more on my blog. So keeping in line with everything I have done since I was twelve, I am going to ignore her and you all will have to wait until next week for me to say something interesting...
Every Ounce Counts So far as a group, we have lost 59 pounds. That is pretty darn good if I say so myself. Let's keep it up. This past week I lost another 1.4 pounds. I have lost a total of 19 pounds and my new weight is 304.4 pounds. I am only 4.4 pounds away from my first goal. I am going to try to reach that goal before March...
Must Have Been The Cookies Yep. I admit it. I broke down and made some no-bakes. And they were good. I noticed the effect on the scale this past week too. Last week, as a group we have lost a total of 38.2 pounds. Great job everybody. As for me, this past week I lost another 1.4 pounds. So far I have lost 17.6 pounds total and now weigh 305.8. How are you doing with your diet?...
Fat Like Me Weigh-In 1-19-10 The first week as a group we lost a total of 26 pounds. Congratulations everyone. This past week I lost another 3.3 pounds for a total of 12.6 pounds. I now weigh 310.8 pounds with a BMI of 42.1. How did you do? How much closer are you to your goal?...
Fat Like Me Weigh-In 1-12-10 Our first week has come and gone. As I sit here watching both The Biggest Loser and my newest guilty pleasure The Doctors. The Doctors comes on sometime while I am at work, so thanks to the miracle invention of DVR, I can watch it almost every day. It just so happened that Monday's episode was titled 52 Easy Secrets to Lose Weight. While I am not going to share all of them with you, I will share a few of their suggestions...
Feel The Burn I love Sundays. I get to sleep in compared to getting up at 4-4:30am every other day of the week. And I get to make breakfast. I usually eat breakfast, but I get to make the eggs, sausage (now of the turkey persuasion), and toast. The stuff I am too tired to goof with normally...
Fat Like Me Weigh-In 1-5-10 Well the big day is here. Time to admit to myself and confess to all of you my true weight. And trust me, it isn't pretty. I weigh 323.4 pounds. I have a BMI of 43.9. So while my wife, from conception to birth, has gained a whopping 3 pounds, I gained a measly 36. Yeah, I know, I have issues. I am claiming sympathetic pregnancy...
Due To The Birth of my son, there will not be any original thoughts or jokes this week.
Enjoy the New Year's.
First weigh-in is next Tuesday. That's right. We will be posting our starting weights on 1-5-10.
See you here.
Fat Like Me I have been asked multiple times by multiple people why I gave up Food For Thought. Well, there were multiple reasons, but it pretty much boiled down to me getting burned out and going on a diet. You see, I am fat. Overweight. Obese. Morbidly even. My Body Mass Index (BMI) is double what it should be. I get winded tying my shoes. I get sweaty drying after taking a shower. You get the point...
Have you ever wondered what was in your food? Or do you just take it for granted? Does the powers that be ALWAYS have our best interests at in mind? Milk. Probably the most important food in the fridge. Possibly the house. We all know that it comes from cows (or goats, etc.), and that it is typically mass produced by homogenization and pasteurization in huge quantities, shipped by tractor-trailers to the local supermarkets and big box stores...
Three Amigo's and a Wonderful Surprise The perfect Mexican food for me has been a life long pursuit. Starting at the beginning, homemade tacos with hard shells. Originally consisting of only meat and cheese and occasionally mild Old El Paso taco sauce. Eventually, the addition of tomatoes, lettuce, medium and hot sauces and salsa's, and sour cream came to be the norm...
BANG! BOOM! Pulling into the parking lot we heard multiple shots of gunfire. "This is going to be interesting" I said to "E". We were about to embark on our first dinner at The Grill on the Hill. Upon finding a table and sitting down we were immediately greeted by our server who took our drink order and informed us of the evening specials...
Have A "Craic"-ing Good Time This past Saturday I had the pleasure of dining at a local Irish restaurant. The Irish Lion in Bloomington has been a staple to the city's many ethnic cuisines for over 25 years. After dining there, it is quite obvious why. Upon walking through the door we were greeted by a hostess and very Irish looking decor. ...
