The willpower just is not there yet

Tea and sugar, pepsi, mountain dew, pizza, cheeseburgers, hoagies. Good grief, maybe I’m trying to gain weight instead of losing it. For better or worse, I’m giving myself a bit of a grace period to get back into this now that I’m back to typing away on this lonely little blog. Another week or two [...]

This time I am back for real

I hope.  LOL Blubberboy checking in on the day before Memorial Day, May 24, 2009. Today I weighed in at 247.2 pounds. In all honesty, I’m surprised it wasn’t a lot more. Wow, I’ve only made 2 posts in over a year.  That’s just sad. Well, 247.2 is now my startover(again) weight. If I were [...]

Okay, so I’m still not completely back

But damn it, I’m trying. Sunday, September 14 was a weigh in of 243.6.  Still hovering around the same thing as my last post a month ago. Obviously, my commitment level is still lacking. I have a number of reasons, i.e., high stress due to possible impending career change, financial struggles, etc. But I don’t [...]

Blubberboy got lost for a while and is starting over now

Good grief, I can’t believe I neglected this site, and myself, for over 4 months. Time absolutely flies by in life. Oh well, we can’t change the past or recapture lost time. We can only move forward and strive to do better. My last post was way back on March 23, 2008. My weigh in at [...]

Biggest Loser contest at work results – 03-21-08

Not exactly a great showing with only a 0.2 pound loss for the week, but I guess we can still say it’s the right direction. After all, it is 5 consecutive weeks of weight loss. The scale at work had me at 243.8 pounds.  Down 12.8 pounds over the 11 weeks of weighing in with [...]

Easter is a bad time for diet and weight loss

As an admitted chocoholic, this time of year is not going to be easy for me to maintain my diet and weight loss success that I’ve had over the last 3 weeks of this blog. The first little pieces of chocolate arrived in the house last night.  So far, so good, but those little chocolate eggs, [...]

Biggest Loser contest at work results – 03-14-08

Well, with only 3 more weigh ins to go, Blubberville’s chances of winning our Biggest Loser Contest at work are quite fleeting. And that’s okay. Despite my “slim” chances at winning, I have managed to drop 8.8 pounds since I started this diet and weight loss blog and community. I dropped 1.4 pounds over last [...]

Who decides what a serving is?

I don’t know who these people are, but they must be little/thin/scrawny/puny. I’m actively trying to implement stronger portion control in my diet and this morning I decided to measure how much cereal and milk I use in relation to the “serving size” from the nutrition info on my cereal. The cereal that I’ve been [...]

Biggest Loser contest at work results – 03-07-08

Blubberville is attempting to make his move in the biggest loser contest at work. I doubled my weight loss totals from the first 8 weigh ins over the last week.  I had only dropped 5.6 pounds through 8 weeks and dropped another 5.6 pounds since last week’s weigh in. We only have 4 weeks to [...]

Goodbye coffee

Or at least, c ya later. Today I put the coffee pot away in the hopes that it will only come out for holidays and other family gatherings. That should eliminate a ton of calories each day from half and half and sugar. I just did a quick measuring test to see how much creamer [...]
