Well, I made it through my second month and the South Beach Diet (SBD)  is behind me. I stuck to it pretty well, with the exception of one major cheat (which involved Pizza, Beer and The Sarah Connor Chronicles) and then a weekend in Chattanooga where I definitely pushed the envelope without outright cheating. I started at 225.5 […]

Hey! Last day on the SBD.
Weight today: 214.2
%Body fat: 34%
Not the ending numbers I was hoping for, but still pretty good I suppose.
Today was the Carfy Distance Festival in Cary, NC. My time in the 5K was 30:45. That’s a new PR (Personal record!). I was pretty thrilled with that. With strep throat even!
So, I […]

Well, one more day on the SBD! Then on to Slim Fast!
Tomorrow is also the Cary Distance Festival in Cary, NC. I will be running. I have a nasty sore throat right now, but I won’t let that stop me unless I get a heckuva lot worse. I am targeting […]

Well, weight continues to drop. I am keeping up my workout so I don’t think I am shedding muscle. Body fat percentages are still a little mystifying, but I am sticking with my theory that  the values are actually +/- 3% and so as long as the trendline on the […]

Doing okay on Phase II. Of course, if I were not switching in a few days, the plan for Phase II would be to stay on it until I hit my target weight so I would be on it for awhile. It seems pretty sustainable for me, but it seems […]

Well, after a week on Phase II, I am back where I started. I am actually glad though as I had a couple of good cheats in there and had actually crept up to 217 and now am back at 215.4 so I think I am headed in the right […]

New low in terms of the opening numbers on the scale. That is sweet. I am a little tired of the lower carb lifestyle and looking forward to some Slim Fast next month. I may be tired of that by the end of the month.
Today I have eaten;

Oatmeal with […]

I have no idea what is going on with the body fat % numbers. My guess is that the number is + or - about 2-3% and so it seems to vary widely. I keep measuring it because I want the first number to start with 2- rather than 3-. […]

 Weight today: ??? (I didn’t weigh today. I forgot!)
% Body Fat: Since I forgot to weigh, I didn’t measure this either.
I haven’t eaten yet today. I will jump on that pretty soon. Confession time. I didn’t work out yesterday. I have been sick and it has really knocked me off my game a little. I […]

Ouch. My binge from last night shows up on the scale. Still feeling like crap so it must be something I am catching versus diet related. I had plenty of carbs yesterday (unfortunately).
Today I ate:

oatmeal, splenda, I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter
2 cups of coffee with non dairy creamer and […]
