Well, it’s Opening Night. In a few hours, I’ll walk on stage in front of an audience. It will suddenly be real. All the weeks of preparation have passed by. Now it’s time to jump out of the proverbial airplane and hope that I’m ready. I’m ready. Of course, this is the time to think…
Surprise, surprise. This was not a good month for approaching my Marathon Weight. I’ve fallen into the trap of making plans but not following through with them. I know what to do but I don’t do it. My average weight for February was 209.9lbs. Up two pounds from January! My lowest weight for the month…
Well, January went as expected. In the wrong direction. But the holiday season caught up with me, so it makes sense. My average weight was 207.8lbs (up 3.4lbs from December). My heaviest was 212.4lbs – the heaviest I’ve weighed in three years. And my lightest was 204.6lbs. The Intermittent Fasting Do-si-do continues. And even though…
Happy New Year! I made sure that 2022 went out with a bang. Eating and drinking as one can only do during the festive season. And now it’s time to pay the piper. The accounts are due… As expected, my weight went up in December. My average weight was 204.4lbs. With a high of 208.8lbs…
At the end of July, I decided to ease off on my quest for my Marathon Weight and enjoy the summer. That enjoyment spread to the fall, too. So, consider this Mile Marker covering August, September, and October, also. I still fasted occasionally but I was going to town on the food side. And I…
At the end of February, my friend Lisa contacted me to see if I was interested in joining a play she was in. The person cast as her husband had dropped out and rehearsals were about to start. I said sure. I didn’t realize it at the time, but it had been five years since…
Every time I build up some sort of momentum, I have a bad habit of squandering it. That’s right. Just call me Sisyphus. He’s the guy that was cursed to roll a large boulder up a hill every morning. Only to see it roll back down to where he started by the end of the…
I noticed it a few years ago. I had to push myself to create. Guilt myself into writing. Or impose a deadline by having to produce something by a specific date. It felt like my creative fire had gone out. And then the pandemic hit and I thought I would have the time or motivation…
Looks like my course correction worked. Finally, after a few months of going in the wrong direction, my weight has started to go down again. My monthly average weight for March was 192.1lbs. Down 2.2lbs from February. My highest weight of the month was 196.6lbs and my lowest weight was 188.2lbs. I’m sure monitoring my…
Well, my February weight did not go in the direction that I expected it to. Instead of going down, my average monthly weight went up. By 2.3lbs! My monthly average weight in February was 194.3 lbs. With a low weight of 190.8lbs and a high weight of 196.8. Like last month, instead of getting upset…
