So here is my update and an explanation (read excuse) for why they’ve been few and far between.
First- my progress toward weight goals have been… nonexistent but my progress toward a healthier me is undeniable. My weight actually came up- I’m at 252.5lbs as of about ten minutes ago- but I am slimmer as I [...]

OK so what I’m doing may be stupid but it may be awesome. It will probably be something in between.
Today is exactly one week until Thanksgiving. And today, I begin my weight loss plan in earnest. No, I’m not skipping turkey day but I will be eating a LITTLE more intelligently and working out a [...]

OK so seeing as how Carley decided not to post a follow-up to her marathon, I will!
She kicked ass. Her official time was 6:17 which is not fast at all- she was among the last finishers- but it was exactly her pace. Her training program was awesome and she stuck to it like… [...]

A good friend of mine is working on a project revolving around sustainability and “green” living. I was interviewed at “Show me your green” and while the quotes aren’t exact, they’re close and it did make me think about the entire green/tree-hugger/envirogeek thing. What’s it mean to you to be “green?” Do [...]

So I don’t blog enough. Sorry… Let’s start with a quick update.
Carley ran ten miles yesterday. yeah… ten. She made it look easy. Bella may have run nine… we’ve no way of tracking her and she is in constant motion… marathon training seems to be going well.
The weight tracker over [...]

No really- Living out here where 3 inches of snow constitutes a snow day or a work from home day has made me laugh a little.
First off- the Rav is awesome. C-monkey has the day off school so I drove to work in her car and WOW. I am glad I did. [...]

No you dirty dirty people.
Somebody I know is raising money for breast cancer. Actually- a few people are, but this is the most recent one I’ve been made aware of.
You all know I helped coach for the U of O Ducks cheerleading squads. While my exit from the Ducks was pretty painful and [...]

This weekend kicked my behind.
Friday was dinner and date night with my beloved wife then we went home and watched Enchanted. That movie was quite a bit funnier than I expected. While predictable and fairly shallow, it wasn’t too bad as far as chick flicks go. And I heart Susan Sarandon. [...]

Ok so there’s a lot to read this time around.
1- Walnuts noticed that my weight slider hasn’t changed recently. I’ve been in a slump and my weight showed no noticeable change for quite a while. I went to Chicago and ate like a jackass for a week and gained 2 lbs. I [...]
