Today’s Weight:  397.2 (K.) Yesterday’s water:  196 oz Finally did it on the water yesterday.  My only real fail was not actually blogging this morning and just now getting to it.  Both yesterday and today we had gatherings outside the house with a meal.  I tried very hard to make good choices.  Thinking I did […]

Today’s Weight:  396.2 (There we go.) Yesterday’s water: 196 oz Achieved my water goal for the first time since starting this journey.  I also tweaked the water app so its trying to get me to drink from 8a to 12a instead of 8a to 8p.  Which meant I was floating away during the day trying […]

Today’s Weight:  399.3 (Back up a bit.  Not worrying.)

Today’s Weight:  399.6 (Well within normal fluctuation, but downward motion is a good thing.) Yesterday’s Water:  96 oz Still not getting there on the water, but progress.  Hunger has set in.  Had my first serious “why am I doing this” moment.  And I know the answer.  I’d like to live more than another 20 years […]

Today’s Weight:  400.4 (See, I was really good yesterday, yet the number went up – that’s ok!  If it doesn’t start gradually creeping down in about a week, then I’ll start to be concerned.) Yesterday’s Water:  88 oz of 200 oz goal. Obviously have some work to do there. Not really feeling hungry yet, at […]

So, I weighed myself on Friday and discovered I weighed 403.2 pounds.  Too much.  Way too much.  Time to try and do something about it.  I started today – Monday, June 6th 2016.  What’s my approach?  I’ve tried many things in the past – what worked the best was similar to the following… For now, […]
