Strike a pose…

I had the misfortune of commenting on a fellow facebookers post regarding Kevin Ogar, the 28 year old crossfitter recently paralysed while competing. And I understand her passion for the sport, she is active in it so is her spouse. Kevin was 6’2, 210 pounds. In great shape. He was attempting a snatch of 235 […]

Happy? No…but there are eggrolls…

Not losing weight isn’t fun when you’re ’dieting’. Let’s be honest, this week wasn’t dieting. Eating late…drinking beer…No good. Ya I hit the gym a few days but it isn’t enough. Lost at poker last night and was home early. Opened the fridge and had a short conversation with a take out container of red […]

The Fat Beagle…

First let me start by saying I found this wonderful image heading up a southern food eatery. It’s to the point. So, I will skip telling you my weigh in today…it’s just not in line with a diet blog. Did I have a bad day yester- day? No…I juiced, I had a sensible lunch…and I […]

The Groundhog Days…

Nothing will ruin a great day of dieting like crackers and peanut butter at 10 pm. Chunk worked out big time yesterday, legs and shoulders, squatting 300 pounds. Talking the stairs today isn’t a lot of fun but working hard on big muscle groups is usually key in dropping chub. A half decent crowd at […]

To Diet or not to Diet…

I can’t refer to the past weekend as dieting…diet did not happen. I didn’t gain weight though, 242.6 this beautiful Monday morning. Let’s see…I ate pizza, drank beer, a few M &M almonds…chips…The list is long and it isn’t pretty. But my weight has been 242ish all weekend regardless of intake. Today I start fresh […]

UP, not the pixar animation

Did I drink more than a dozen beer on Wednesday night and lose weight? Was that a dream? The hangover yesterday certainly wasn’t. Terrible thing about hangovers, they make me want to eat, nothing but the best. 3 litres of gatorade, a litre of chocolate milk, a bowl of chili, 2 grilled cheese sandwiches, chocolate […]

Houston, we have a problem

Okay. Yesterday I did not eat breakfast, for Fanch (the new brunch) I had a sausage on a protein pita. For dinner I had mens health chili. then I went to poker. We started early, 5 pm, the earliest start we’ve ever attempted. Beagle asked for a snow day, which in poker talk means he […]

A New Man? Zombie?

Did I wake up this morning with the ability to straighten my arms? Yes sir! You know, I may be getting a bit old…sadly that is the only reason it could possibly take a week to get over a workout. What misery! I went to the gym yesterday…chest and triceps…so far no pain. Chest workouts […]

Is Liquor Quicker?

The man diet continues…I was a reasonably good boy yesterday, only taking a couple HUGE missteps on the bath to thin. I tried a bit of a fast yesterday. In the past I’ve done some reading on fasting diets which involve not eating for a 16 our period, half of which you are potentially sleeping […]

No Rest for the…

Fat? No that’s not it… No rest for those that can’t bend there arms? Yep. That’s me. Up at 3 am after 4 hours of sleep. I have about 80 % movement in my arms…with only mild pain. It’s been what, 5 days, I should be over this by now no? Nope, old fat man, […]
