A decade ago I thought I might learn to play the geetar.. I did make a half ass attempt, I took guitar lessons and knew my cords pretty well. Other things trumped the importance of that and I gave it up. I have picked up the guitar over the years but I never really put […]
Read More...Snowshoeing for 5 hours??? Does that sound like fun? Might you like a high of minus 20 thrown in with that? Sunday-Monday this week the Golden Boys go Yurting in Algonquin park. it shall be cold! A little winter soccer, some snowshoeing, a bit of poker…the usual guy stuff…this all done at below ball freez- […]
Read More...Another beautiful day! Freezing cold! I took a day off the gym, a pleasure for sure. Hit the sauna, the hot tub…and I ate right all day without any late night snacks! The result…not much…if I lean just right on the scale I can get it to show 243… Not what I was hoping for […]
Read More...Yes I’ve done some late night snacking, I’ve had beer and liquor, popcorn and candy, pop and chocolate bars…I’ve had late night meat and cheese, pizza and toast…I’ve had late night juicing… Ahhhh….Late night juicing…THAT’s what I should have had last night! Damn myself! double damn me!!! I woke up yesterday and clicked and clattered […]
Read More...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 […]
Read More...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 […]
Read More...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 […]
Read More...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 […]
Read More...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 […]
Read More...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 […]
