Merry Christmas.
I have been rebuilding the man blog, uploading the old posts, 1 or 2 a day.
It’s January of 2014, and all talk about dieting and eating eggrolls, so much fun.
….Ev is alive….
In January of 2014, I can remember what we were doing, the conversations we had. Oddly, it’s like I didn’t have a memory the past few years, I had shut myself off…
Back then, Ev was trying to figure out what was off, why she wasn’t feeling right. We would remove garlic, add garlic, stop eating wheat, eat whole wheat, almond flour…was it the water, was something in the air…she just couldn’t figure out what was wrong.
She didn’t tell me her symptoms; she would just say something wasn’t right. It would be a few months before she had a bit of a breakdown…I’m not sure I mentioned it in the man blog, but I remember it like it was yesterday.
We shall see as I continue to upload the old posts, and maybe I will reference those in the now.
What’s up here, countertops sealed, sadly leaving the house a disaster for 24 hours while they dry. All carpets cleaned, good productive holidays!
Although I have a perfectly good job I’m going to need more, I’ve been applying a bit to see if I get any bites. Does anyone need work done, renos? I need to be busy! Hopefully, this cabinet business takes off. I think we have a 40-unit apartment building in the pipe, which will certainly take care of things, but that is 6 months to a year away.
The Quote of The Day:
No one is too busy to tell you how busy they are.
Keeping busy is keeping me sane these days.
Krista is impressed with the body I’ve given her. I think she is eyeballing the package. (So is Deonn)
Russett claims he will be in the 230’s in the next few days. hmmm….no xmas cookies?
Tbag is down from 150.6 to 148, Krista…she has a scale!…walking on the treadmill for 45 minutes, doing crunches and cutting sugar (a little) —-this is a quote….Her goal is 139 by February 8th.
Ahh….Krista…the goal is a bit better defined here.
Ok
Tbag—-5’5″—-148
Krista—-5’7″—-165 (she thinks, I think I’m an astronaut!)
Russett—5’6″—-230+ (using projections)
Victor—6’2″—-234
(I’m not sure about the spacing on this WP theme, will figure it out)
Just to be clear, for at least the past 6 months, I have been told I’m fat no less than once per week. I guess that’s over with. I may weigh 234 today, but yesterday I was wearing my 220 pants.
What are 220 pants? I have clothes kicking around from when I was thinner, and I have 240+, 230+, 220+, and under 220 clothes.
….I just ran upstairs to my skinny clothes closet….I tried on a selection of sub-220 pants….I fit into every pair….
I don’t quite get it, but my guess is I have some visceral fat, slow to go…Or maybe I’m more muscular than I would be in the past…dieting, from working construction.
I am fairly big boned, I believe.
Anyway, I’m feeling pretty good about myself right now, and I hope to get to a really healthy place, live another 20 years! I have a new blood rec and will do that after the xmas holidays. I’m drinking less in a week than I have in many past nights, way less.
Also, I’m exploring being alone…probably for the first time in my life…I need to do this for a bit. I think I can have some female companionship without having some female companionship…if you know what I mean. Have friends, but be alone for a bit.
I think Mel was a parachute, and I don’t want to do that again. I want to enjoy being by myself before I get into it with another woman….sadly…painfully…I think it’s better for me and whoever I share my life with later.
Wow…squirrel.
After writing the man blog on the 22nd, which is posted as the 23rd…I think I have my timezone wrong…I took this fabulous photo to show off how good I was going to be about eating.
I did eat that celery, along with 4 butter tarts……and a rice crispy square….
And now for the grand finale!
I wish I could tell you I threw the treats out….but I’m still 234!
I’m going to go lift weights now, then onto my Christmas plans. I’ll see you all on the 26th.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas. Be kind to a stranger; it will make your day!
