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 [...]

Lost 3 pounds for the week and 10.8 pounds over 30 days

I love irony. Despite my horrible diet week, the scale is telling me I still lost 3 pounds this week. Perhaps, I won’t take the hit on the scales until next week’s weigh in. Or maybe the little bit of exercise I’ve squeezed in has helped kick start my metabolism. We’ll know when March 30 [...]

Days 27-28: I’m an out of control eating machine

Even though I have written it down, I am giving myself a mulligan on these 2 days and refusing to post my meals.  So there. Lets just say that it involved, cheeseburgers, chocolate, french fries, soda, coffee, cream, sugar, donuts, cheese, butter, and heaven knows what else. Oh my God, what happened to me? Have [...]

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 [...]

Days 24-26 – lost a little steam in the journey

Well, I’ve slipped a little bit in this diet and weight loss journey.   No, I didn’t pass out naked surrounded by empty candy bar wrappers and Dorito bags, but I have drifted back to visit an old bad snack or two over the last few days. I’ll just sum up the last 3 days in [...]

Day 23 – more pasta, more chicken

Obviously two of our favorites in this house. A wrap up of day 23 of this diet and weight loss journey. Breakfast – It was sausage Sunday. I had 2 1/2 round sausage patties. Yeah, I know. Lunch – a chicken sandwich with lettuce, tomato, American cheese, and Miracle Whip on a kaiser roll Dinner [...]

Keep a food journal to expedite your weight loss

One of the primary reasons I started this blog was to give myself easy access to a record of what I eat every day and to see my bad habits layed out right in front of me. Because I do a lot of work online, I thought this would be a more convenient method for [...]

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, [...]
