Playing frisbee Recently, we’ve started playing ultimate frisbee. Just before camping we decided to give this game a whirl, and ended up playing until it was too dark to play. While we were camping we played a little frisbee every day we were there. While camping though, Bryan decided to pull a Jet Lee on…

Annnndddd…. refreshed. It is summer and that means its time to reach under the bed, pull out the boxes full of shorts, tee shirts, snorkeling equipment, and frisbees. Time to get away from the TV and computer screens, get outside and enjoy the sun. That same spirit is what spurred me to give this site…

Basketball has been some part of my life, big or small, since I was very young. I’ve never been any good at it really, but that’s another story. As an early teen I would go to the elementary school playground in the morning and not return until it was dark. Summers came and went, meals…

As I was approaching the scale this morning I was a little scared at what I might see. Although I did fairly good this week (side note: I did a few MealToday videos so you can see what I ate at least 2 of the days for lunch) yesterday was our 8th wedding anniversary and…

Lately I’ve been lax in my workouts. This is in part due to the fact that my schedule is not lining up with Chris Fehnel‘s schedule and so I haven’t been regularly hitting the gym nor running (though I have managed to play some frisbee and basketball). I believe it is time to quit making…

Thanks to all who encouraged me after gaining a few pounds last week. It means a lot. This week I lost 2.6 pounds and weighed in at 187.4 pounds. I’m very happy with these results considering the weekend of eating rather heartily. Although I was able to play a little frisbee and play some basketball…

I knew this wouldn’t be a week for loss and I thought it’d actually be a week for gain, but it turned out that even after taking a weekend vacation and eating whatever I wanted – I was able to just about maintain my weight from last week (186.6). This past weekend Eliza and I…

I skipped my weigh in last week due to being away. I typically do not like to weigh in somewhere else since I know that not all scales are created equal. While in California for six days I actually ate pretty well. And by well I mean a decent amount of food. When I went…

My weigh ins are going to become less and less exciting (as if they were riveting before right?) because I think my weight will begin to plateau now that I’m sub-190lbs and I’m actively working out. So instead of just covering the amount of gain/loss each week I’ll also toss in some of my other…

It was 66-degrees yesterday here in Northeastern Pennsylvania and today it was around 50 and is raining right now. In "Hotlanta" (Atlanta, Georgia) it was snowing (or so reports the National Weather Service). Update: Atlanta also had some fun dealing with a Tornado that did quite a bit of damage. What does all this weird…

While doing some dishes today I thought of starting a "meme" of sorts. How could I capture the reasons why I think I’ve been successful on the diet and help to encourage those who have not, or who have yet to start their diet. I’ve come up with these five questions, and hopefully my answers…

I weighed in this morning at 189.6 pounds, up 3 pounds since 8 weeks ago. I am very surprised at this number since I thought I’d have gained more than only 3 pounds in that amount of time. My plan is to get down to 185 pounds, and I’d like those 185 pounds to be…

Without a doubt, I’m not being as strict as I used to be on my diet. I’m eating slightly more, and sometimes it isn’t the best of foods. My metabolism is much higher than it used to be, and my activity level is as well. All of this contributes to me being able to be…

"So, what’d you do this week?" – Random passerby. Well, I’m glad you asked! Because what I’ve done this week, as well as most of the past ten weeks, has really helped me with my diet. I’ve had many discussions over the last ten weeks with people on and off the diet. Many people agree,…

Spending five days outdoors, sleeping "on the ground", and dealing with nature may not appeal to some – but I thoroughly enjoy it. Sure, some of the amenities of home invariably end up coming with us, but I still consider it roughing it compared to my daily lifestyle. Yearly camping trips seem to be the…

As you might have read in the Flickr group, I went to a fair and a baseball game this week. Both of which would have normally been events that I’d indulge in eating as much food as I could afford, along with beer. But I was able to refrain from my gluttonous past tendencies. However,…
