Hey everyone. Sorry for the lack of updates. I had a family emergency and have been tending to that for the past week and 1/2. I’m hoping to start my daily posts again, along with the pics.
As for my weight loss, I haven’t gained or loss much since my last update. I have been traveling, so [...]
Update - October 5, 2009 - 227 lbs.
Day 44 - September 22, 2009 - 230 lbs.
Very good day today. Had a great workout and good diet. One more day and I think I will be in the 220’s! The more I continue with this, the more I want to improve. Once you have momentum and start to see these kinds of results, it only motivates you to want to do [...]
Day 43 - September 21, 2009 - 331 lbs.
No workout today…I am still recovering my sore muscles from yesterday’s workout. Hope to soon be in the 220’s. Weight loss progress seems to be grinding very slowly, considering that I lost 10 pounds the first week I started.
Today’s Diet:
Breakfast - Honey Nut Cheerioes with Fat Free Milk
Snack - Naval Orange
Lunch - Weight Watchers Spaghetti [...]

Day 42 - September 20, 2009 - 232 lbs.
Had one of the best workouts today since I started this whole thing back in August. I did some intense chest exercises. I was visiting a friend in another town and was able to work out in his gym for the day. I took advantage of it and really pushed myself.
Tomorrow starts week 6, so [...]
Day 39 - September 17, 2009 - 232 lbs.
Another excellent day, both with my diet and exercise. I am really getting some stamina, particularly on the elliptical machine. I have upped my time to 40 minutes and slowly work my way up the the strongest resistance throughout the workout.
Looking forward to getting in the 220’s. It’s close! Also, I’m not sure what happened [...]
Day 37 - September 15, 2009 - 234 lbs.
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed at the weight loss progress in the past 8 days. It has virtually come to a stand-still. I cheated quite a bit last week and I believe my body went into “survival” mode and stored a lot of the non-healthy and fatty stuff I ate, contributing [...]
Day 33 Meltdown! - September 11, 2009 - 238 lbs.
Ok, major meltdown today. I caved in for the first time since the diet began. I had 4 beers (Miller Lite) and a bunch of Jalepeno Poppers, along with 2 slices of Pizza. I had a VERY bad day today related to work and resorted to an emotional eating binge. This was on top of a high-calorie [...]
Day 32 - September 10, 2009 - 236 lbs.
I can’t seem to lose any more weight! I did cheat a little today and had a very BIG salad at Chilis….I’m guessing it had anywhere from 700 - 900 calories.
Today’s Diet:
Breakfast - Hard Boiled Egg
Snack - Rubs Reds Nutritional Supplement
Lunch - Cajun Chicken Salad with Lite Ranch - LARGE portion from Restaurant
Snack - Banana
Dinner - [...]
Day 31 - September 9, 2009 - 236 lbs.
Not much to report today. Other than an evening swim, no exercise. Was really craving some junk food today in a big way, but I didn’t cave in. Want to finish this thing all the way through.
Today’s Diet:
Breakfast - Hard Boiled Egg
Snack - Rubs Reds Nutritional Supplement
Lunch - Ham & Turkey Tortilla Wrap with Tomatoes, [...]
Day 30 - September 8, 2009 - 236 lbs.
Pretty weak workout today. Went early this morning, which I think was too soon from last night’s workout. I don’t think my body adequately recovered from yesterday. As a result, I took it pretty easy in the gym. Between my sunburn and my fatigue from last night, I didn’t have much energy today.
Today’s Diet:
Breakfast - [...]
Day 28 - September 6, 2009 - 238 lbs.
You may have noticed, but I finally shaved the little piece of hair above my chin — it was driving my wife crazy, so I finally got rid of it.
I officially enter week 5 tomorrow and my weight loss total at the end of four weeks is now at 25 pounds. Almost halfway at [...]
