It’s been a while since I gave an update on my quest to reach my Marathon Weight. And to be honest, not much has happened. In the first six months of 2025, my average weight has been 199.8lbs. Going down a little one month and going back up a little the next month. During that…
I was talking to my friend the other day. And I mentioned that I weigh myself every day. “Obsess, much?” Drew asked. And I had to think about it. I mean I blog about my weight loss journey a fair amount. And I do weigh myself every day. A few times during the day, even.…
I cracked the Intermittent Fasting code. For myself, anyway. It started with being comfortable with being Uncomfortable. Using that as a mantra was a game changer last month. But I’ve also started thinking of Intermittent Fasting as an exercise. Sometimes, I do my regular time restricted eating (TRE) and hold off having my first meal…
Now that the Around the Bay is done, I can check off another item on my Five-Year Plan. Yay! Of course, it was easier to get the first two items done once they were scheduled and committed to. Two items done. Twenty-eight more things to work towards. And still almost five years to get them…
It was almost four years ago that I decided to try to get my weight down to 180lbs, which I dubbed my Marathon Weight. And for over two years, I was doing very well in that endeavour. Using Intermittent Fasting as my dieting tool of choice. I was encouraged by my previous success of getting…
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…
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…
This was one of those two-steps-forward and one-step-backward kind of months. Meaning that the last two months my weight went down, but my weight for May went up. My average weight for May was 191.7lbs. Up 1lb from my April weight. I had a high weight of 197lbs, which is my highest weight all year.…
My average weight continues to go down as I focus on my current system. Yay! My average weight for April was 190.7lbs. Down 1.4lbs from the previous month. With a high weight of 195.6lbs and a low weight of 186.6lbs. I fit in three extended fasts. A 47-hour fast, a 35-hour fast, and a 45-hour…
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…
