Seems like I lost my posting momentum. There’s lots of stuff going on right now, not all of which I can really talk about on the web. But the good news is that, although I have not been posting my food, I have been tracking it. I’ve been careful all during the week to make [...]

I ran 3 more miles today and I noticed that my finished times are slowly getting faster. Not by a lot, but maybe 10-15 seconds each time, even though its getting later in the week. I’m hoping this trend continues. I haven’t done a good job of getting out the door early. I’ve been getting [...]

This morning I got out for my three mile run, albeit exceptionally late. Tomorrow I will do better. Here’s my food for the day below. Since I basically eat the same thing every day, I’m going to start just taking pictures of it all in one big group food shot. No need to re-explain myself. [...]

Yesterday I did not make it to my weight workout. Not such a good start to the year. I went to see The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Horrendously graphic, violent, and gruesome. Not a show for anyone under the age of 35. Women will find it particularly disturbing because of the theme and several [...]

I’m following Amanda’s blog and have signed up for her monthly project, which is to keep a food log. I’ve done this in the past using an Excel spreadsheet (used it to track calories and weight) but haven’t done it with pictures before. Here is what I ate today: Ok, this first one is kind [...]

So, I’ve run now two days in a row, which is a record for me of late. I like think that two in a row is considered a trend. :) Just three miles and just under a 10 minute pace. Trust me, this is a lot for me right now. I’m watching the food intake [...]

I’ve been buying Ghirardelli chocolate chips for years. Its what I use for making truffles and it has performed very well. I’ve gotten the recipe down just perfect so that I know how much cream and butter to add to two bags of chips to make the right consistency. But that all changed. When I [...]

I haven’t been on the game since I quit, so I am very proud of myself for that. On the other hand, I have not run since last week, which is not so good. I’ve decided I am disgusted with myself for letting the fat climb on me again, so I am dumping the sugar [...]

When I eat candy and sugary stuff, its first makes me feel happy (because I’m eating candy and sugary stuff), and then I feel sad. And then the next day, I want MORE sugar. I did so good this week, but then I ate some candy on Thursday, and then I was sad. And now [...]

The first time in about 6 months its actually above freezing. And coincidentally, I have a run on my schedule, so I went and ran and actually did not die. My was was somewhere near 8:20. Yea, me. I went camping last weekend and froze my butt off. I had planned to run when I [...]
