The updates are far and few between…

To my loyal fan base; I say thanks for hanging in there. To those of you who know me well and are bitching that I haven’t written anything in a while, piss off! I’ve been busy writing other articles and blogs and walking on the treadmill.

That’s right turd breath, I haven’t given up on losing weight just because I’ve taken a bit of a hiatus from writing on this particular blog. I’ve been busy writing other things if you must know. You’re awfully nosy aren’t you? Are you proud of that character flaw? I should smack you upside your head is what I should do. The again, I am thankful for you. You are a large part of my support network. Do you feel better now? Dingle berry!

It’s true, you are a large and very important part of my support network as I try to drop the unwanted, unattractive and unhealthy fat I’ve been carting around for far too long now.

I’ve been going fairly steady on the treadmill only missing one day due to a bit of a messed up work schedule and taking another day off out of shear exhaustion. I feel good about the progress I’ve made thus far and I’m happy to report that I’ve lost 15 lbs.

Even though I don’t look 15 lbs. lighter, I can feel the difference. Truly! Think about it, 15 lbs.

Go to the store and grab three 5 lbs. bags of sugar, carry them around in the store with you for 15 minutes and you’ll get a good idea of how you feel a significant difference, when you set them down. I feel good!

The treadmill has been good to me and I miss it on the days I don’t use it. I’ve been walking anywhere between 30-40+ minutes a day, with an incline and averaging 3 mph or so. I even get a 2-3 minute jogs in. Those are killer but, I haven’t jogged in over 20 years. For one thing, over the last 15 years there would have been no possible way I could have jogged for 10 seconds let alone 3 minutes. I’m damn proud of that fact.

The dickydo, snake shelter, 6-pack protector, beer shelf, spare tire, now a 3/4 keg is still there but, its on its out.

CW: It was nice to see you last Saturday.

Me: Thanks, it was good to see you too.

CW: I really enjoyed the time we spent together, I get all saucy when you’re around.

Me: Indeed you do. I have to say, the way you presented yourself was awesome! You really outdid yourself this time.

CW: [blushing] Awe, thank you very much! There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you!

Me: Thanks. The garlic parm sauce was a real nice touch. It truly made my day. I hope to see you again soon!

CW: Me too! I love you!

Me: I love you too!

I bid you adieu as I get ready to embark on yet another day of smart and healthy choices. Or, something like that!

Wait just a minute! I just realized, today is a cheat day! 1 meal can be anything I want it to be. Let’s see, breakfast is already mapped out, lunch is made for the stay at the hospital while my mother has her surgery and dinner is tilapia, a potato and broccoli. Crap! What is gonna be my cheat? I guess a snack while I watch the Sabres lose will be ok.

You weren’t going to tell me were you?

You: Shhhhhhhh… he’ll never realize what today is.

Another one of you: Do you really think so?

You: He’s a dumb ass!

Another one of you: [snickering] You’re right!

Effing effers!

Cheers!

This soap box is mine, get your own!

January 13, 2011

I’ve been losing weight by making smarter choices and exercising. What have I done you ask? Well, for starters I’ve tried to limit my caloric intake, cut out the beer during the week and limit it on the weekends, drinking more water and exercising. I’ve also injected more vegetables into my diet. DIET, Diet, diet! […]

This is tough!

January 6, 2011

I must be the biggest baby to ever walk the grounds of WNY. No one said it would be easy. It’s much easier to put on than it is to take off. OM effing G! I was in my early 20’s when I was scarfing down a small cheese and peperoni pizza by myself for […]

Not into it today…

January 5, 2011

I’m in a rotten mood induced by the regular stresses of adulthood and parenthood. No excuses, I just want to crawl under a rock and stay there for a while. Oh, boo-hoo you say? Indeed, is my reply. Some days are filled with excitement and a continued drive for excellence, other days, filled with angst, […]

Intake and Output

January 4, 2011

I think I actually slept last night. How do I know this? Well, for starters, I don’t remember tossing and turning. I know this because when I have a night of tossing and turning, I usually look at the clock and I can remember all the different times on the digital display. Those devilishly red […]

A Day That Will Live in Infamy!

Watch it Wiggle, See it Jiggle

January 3, 2011

Who would have thought an old 80’s jingle from Jell-o brand gelatin would actually scream “horror” in the minds of fat people. I can say “fat people” without fear of sounding hypocritical because I am one those “fat people”. Speaking of hypocritical, I might even agree that I’m of hippo stature. I’m Fuccilo baby! HUGE! […]

2011 brings about change

January 2, 2011

It’s not really change but, a re-birth of my commitment to get healthier. This time I have my wonderfully supportive wife on board with the program. I will enjoy updating our progress as we set off on a journey to health. My sister-in-law Teri has also joined our support network. I hope you enjoy following […]

It would take a Mack truck to stop me, and it did.

December 7, 2010

Saturday, I was feeling, lets say not up to snuff. About 3 a.m. Sunday morning I woke with a sense of urgency to make it to the shitter. I made it and I was happy I did. 1 deposit in the books, I grabbed a quick drink of water and back to bed I went. […]

Giorno cinque nei libri [30 in 30]

December 3, 2010

Just for shits and giggles, head over to http://babelfish.yahoo.com and translate the title from Italian to English. I know it’s silly but, I like messing with ya! You know you like it! DON’T LIE TO ME! Ok, relax you big sissy! Me: It’s Friday you know. CW: I know. Me: I’m ready for you. CW: […]
