Plateaus Suck
Only within the last two days have I noticed my weight even drop a pound extra compared to my last “milestone”. In fact, it has went up from 149 to 155 to 152 to 149 again - just to tease me. Almost this entire month I’ve been stuck at a plateau. Today, I weighed in and noticed I’m at 148. That is promising. I was doing some research about plateaus and why we seem to...

Awe. I miss you.
I was about to write a post about Paula Deen, yes, I know. And I noticed that I’m missing two followers than from what I had before. I miss you. I promise posts will get better. And I promise to keep myself accountable, with you, even when I screw up. I do eat 2-3 meals a day if you are wondering. And they all get logged in my Lose It app. Sometimes I forget to post them. I’m...

Oh. My. Goose: Buffalo Wild Wings
As previously mentioned I had dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings last night. I got the Cheeseburger Slammers with fries. I had to email Buffalo Wild Wings for a PDF of all of their nutritional information. Apparently they can’t just link to it on their website. I took the extra step to get accurate information. And Oh. My. Goose. My dinner, just the sliders, was 1559 Calories and 92 Grams of...

A Bit of a Confession
I tend to post when my eating stays on track but I don’t really post that often when I fall off the wagon so to speak. Last night a good friend of mine invited me to Buffalo Wild Wings for trivia. Haven’t seen him in months so I thought I would. Well as far as eating goes yesterday I made a few mistakes. I didn’t eat lunch. All I had was the 90 calorie attune probiotics bar as...

40 Foods With Superpowers
I recently tweeted a resource from Men’s Health on 40 Foods with Superpowers. It was rather hard to read as each food was on a separate page. Took 40 page loads just to read the list. I was inspired by the foods on the list and their many benefits. Out of that inspiration came this PDF that compiles all the foods into a few pages and at the end also has a shopping list. 40 Foods With...

Last Week
I must say that last week was rough for me on a few of my routines. When I went to see my brother at graduation in Atlanta the weekend before last I didn’t exercise even though the hotel had a gym. And that’s when it started. I woke up late Monday morning, didn’t exercise my full 30 minutes and then didn’t exercise the rest of the week. I kept putting it off. Then this...

BMI: 23
When I started this journey my BMI was 27.4 and I was edging towards obese, my triglycerides were through the roof, and ashamedly so walking was causing me to breathe heavy. Yes, I was that out of shape.  For the first time in a long time I’m finally “normal weight” … barely as anything over 24 is considered overweight but still, I celebrate this as a small victory. My...

stacyruns asked: Hey Gary,

I see you're using the same theme that I am. Someone answered a question I posed on my tumblog yesterday, but it's not showing up anywhere on the actual page. Have you had that problem?

Thanks!

Update: Lose-It iPhone App
There’s an App for That I’ve had a few people ask me questions about this so I thought I would put it in a blog post to answer everyone’s questions. The iPhone or iPod Touch app pictured above is called Lose It!, it’s free, and available in the App Store. Lose It! is different because it is not a “one size” fits all approach to weight loss. It’s...

"Like" me on Facebook
I have created a Facebook fan page where you can “like” me. This keeps it separate from my personal Facebook page and won’t overload my feed with workout related posts. I’m going to be posting to the fan page often and look forward to hearing from you on there as well.
