Day 1287
I made a huge miscalculation which led to my falling off the wagon yesterday. In my state of exhaustion I waited too long… and a meal replacement was not going to cut it. I went to the grocery store and bought two meals worth of chicken and vegies… and a bread. I have thrown the…

Day 1063
This morning I saw the largest single-day weight increase that I can remember, It was a kick in the gut, and a definite reminder that I enjoyed last night’s Christmas dinner a little too much. I do better today… but just the fact that I will not be eating cookies for dessert means I will…

Day 1050
For a few months I was one of those people who had a piece of exercise equipment that was used mostly for hanging clothes on. I never wanted to be one of those people. When I first bought the treadmill (which I brought home January 1 of this year) I used it quite a bit……

Day 994
I was right… and I don’t want to talk about it. I was absolutely disgusted by the numbers on the bathroom scale this morning.

Day 955
I was really down yesterday… because my weight was really up. I fell off the wagon Friday night, and while the circumstances that led to it happening were brought about by others, they only led me to the water… I drank on my own. No, I did not imbibe; I ate. Here’s the long and…

Day 937
I was weak last evening. I felt weak, and I gave in to a little temptation. I did not go overboard, but I did break from the program; I made myself a small (2-egg) omelette, and then I ate a protein bar (which is equivalent to drinking an extra meal replacement). I told my wife…

Day 740
Yesterday turned into another ‘off the cliff’ day. I have no idea why I went so crazy with fruit and nuts and dumplings and breads… but I did. I will have to make sure I do better today. The numbers on the bathroom scale this morning were a shock… a four-pound jump? That will teach…
