45 – Not a Colt or a Record

Back in July I wrote: "since I started posting about my weight loss journey, I have been followed by just about every keto diet page, healthy living page, eat better/workout more page and such. This irks me for some reason. I post my stuff here to keep myself accountable. On the weeks I gain weight … Continue reading 45 – Not a Colt or a Record →

Getting Smaller

Tuesday is "weigh in" day for me. I sort of have a ritual when it comes to weighing in. As soon as I get up, I use the restroom. I take off my watch, take off my shirt, and weigh in in nothing but my boxers. My apologies for the detail, however, I feel that … Continue reading Getting Smaller →

Almost 30 …

I try to hold myself accountable as I continue my weight loss journey. I neglected to post this week's weigh in results. I really was not sure what to expect this week as I had a bad day where I went over the points I was allowed. I tried to counter that by walking an … Continue reading Almost 30 … →

Staying Accountable

I'm not quite in a writing mood today. I'm not perfect. I disappoint people. I hate when I do that. Sometimes I take things the wrong way or read a signal wrong. I hear something and it reminds me of my past life and I react to it that way, which is wrong. I am … Continue reading Staying Accountable →

6 Week Milestone

I just finished week 6 of Weight Watchers and weighed in to see that I hit a milestone. I was down 4 pounds this week and that takes my total weight loss to 21 pounds!

(Insert Creative Title Here)

We had our garage sale on Friday and Saturday, but Sunday may have been busier than the rest of my weekend. I got my steps in for the day, that's for sure! You may remember that when we were expecting Ella, we took what was our dining room and built a wall to make a … Continue reading (Insert Creative Title Here) →

Skinny Motivation

My last blog post was the my 666th post. Not sure I'm keen on that number, so here is a quickie blog. It's more for me, than you. 189 pounds. That is what I was in the following picture: I have a lot of weight to lose to get to that weight again. I'm probably … Continue reading Skinny Motivation →

Weekend Wrap Up

Saturday Sam and I took the kids out to eat at a local pizza place. They have a patio, which allowed us to eat outside. The weather was perfect. It was sunny, but not too hot and there was a nice breeze. Of course, there was plenty of cottonwood flying about, which was only a … Continue reading Weekend Wrap Up →
