losing it…not the weight

You know…it get’s old…244 I’ve been here before, groundhog days. I hate em! This one as always is my fault.

3 Buffets a day for a week…

The trials and tribulations…that’s what it’s all about. You see the diet part is easy, you make the choice to eat better, less, or not at all and you lose weight.

Good to the very end…almost

I did diet this weekend, I ate right, not too much, not too little. I’ve been to the gym every day, pushing hard. no breaks, sweating my ass off. The result…244. It’s laughable really. I’m getting stronger, back to what I was a few months ago, but I was still 10 pounds lighter then. Last […]
