Weight Update 30 Down 170 To Go



After a bout of gout followed up with kidney stones you think I would be in a bad mood. I was pretty depressed until I weighed in at 370 pounds a loss of 4 more pounds. I have been trying to only eat half of a meal at each meal and I have been pretty succussful. I was not able to get in the full portion of exercise over the last week due to the medical problems but the diet did come thru.



Well I plan on attending the Magic the Gathering prerelease on Saturday April 25th in Houston. I will let you all know what happens. Until then lets take a stroll down memory lane with old School Magic.

Still Holding at 374

I do not know what is happining. I am getting smaller and have much more energy but the weight has remained the same. I was able to maintain my heart rate over 128 on the treadmill/basketball court for almost an hour.

Oh well I guess I better redouble my efforts.

I have been blessed and had my second article posted on Seeking Alpha.

Found a Fun Way to Burn Some Fat

Hello all.

Still here still fat still trying.

I have a Basket Ball hoop at my new house and have tried a new exercise routine. I shot 100 free throws and chased the ball after either a basket or a miss. I keep track of the % made so I can keep interested in the routine. I did it twice last night and shot 23% on the first and 52% on the second. Took about 30 minuets per time and was not very hard to keep going. Was a bit sore in bed last night, but that cleared up in the morning. Blood sugar was 180 at bed last night and was 207 on waking which is lower than normal.

Will try to get some video of the game if I can up on http://www.youtube.com/

Lets get some more fat jokes going.

Hurt Myself

After the work session in the yard got progressivly slower and finally broke down and went to the doctor. She thought the problem was fluid behind the knee caps from over work. The solution was sticking a 3" needle behind my kneecap into my knee and shooting it full of steriods. That did not feel good! It has helped, but the doctor has ordered me off the treadmill and out of the yard for a few days.

here is the picture of how it is done.

After she did the first knee (which was in more pain) she asked me if I wanted the other knee done. At first I said who would ever get the second done once feeling the pain from the first but did it anyway.

Going to try to focus on diet more for a bit.
