I’m getting really tired. Tired of not sleeping enough and tired of eating 1,800 calories. I have been very strict on this diet and I’m getting so close to my target weight. But lately it is becoming a chore to eat at my diet level. With all the running I’m just “hungry like the wolf”. [...]
The photo updates every fourth day have gotten old after about a month. These weekly status updates are just starting to get old. I think I have mastered the whole calorie counting thing by now and I certainly know how to weigh in every morning and put it in a spreadsheet. Just as I have [...]
I have celebrated my 5 month progress anniversary this week and I’m just shy of 60lbs total lost. I came a long long way from the fat guy I used to be and this week was another great week towards the goal of being fit for life. Strength training was solid, I did my two [...]
Week 21 has came to an end but my transformation is nowhere near done. I still have so much more to go it’s not even funny. But let’s recap where I stand and how the last week went. Caloric intake wise it went great. I have averaged 1,803 calories for the week which is exactly [...]
That’s a whole lot of numbers for a blog entry title but I thought it was fitting to kind of compress the state of my progress into a tiny little one liner. So let’s look at the numbers one by one. 200 Miles. That is the number of miles I had run since the first [...]

This week was a fantastic week again. Well I’m calling it fantastic but if you care about my strength exercising or my lean body mass retention this week kind of sucked. The week started out good, I did strength training on Tuesday but I skipped my Friday session. I went to the driving range with [...]
It’s been over 4 months now that I have started my transformation and started blogging about it. This week was a good week more or less, not perfect but I’m still pretty happy with it. Diet has been really good for most of the week. I have averaged 1,839 calories a day but was it [...]
Finally, a great week again! As miserable last week was in terms of cardio and weight training that is how great this week was. It started out with a bit of anticipation and worry whether my foot could handle running again, and I was fully prepared to take more time off if needed, but luckily [...]
It’s been almost 4 months since I have started my transformation. I have been at a steady decline and everything has been smooth sailing. At this point I should be on autopilot and flying towards the finish line with little to no effort. Well this week was anything but effortless. The biggest curve ball that [...]
