57th Tuesday weigh-in


223.5 lb

No change from last week. I hit the gym all 6 days and tracked my food during the week. Sometimes the scale is just a jerk.

56th Tuesday weigh-in


223.5 lb

Down 1.5 lbs! Three weeks in a row with a loss to report. I think tracking food on the daily plate is a great way to keep me from overeating, it is really the only thing different I have been doing lately (well I have not been eating lots of candy and snacks either.)

55th Tuesday weigh-in

225.0 lb

Loss of 0.5 lb, and this over Thanksgiving! I am so proud of that. I jogged/ran 3 laps around Nathan's house in Cedar City to work off some of that pecan pie, they said one lap was 1.5 miles, on the last lap some neighbor dogs chased me down the street, it really got the blood pumping running for my life!

Tracking my daily food intake on the daily plate is working well. My personal trainer visit was this week, I was about the same as last month on body fat (23%) and weight. That is better than being 5 lbs heavier but I was hoping for a loss on body fat. On average Americans gain 8lbs over the November - December holiday season. Let's see if I can bring that average down a tick by losing that much. Negative 8 pounds by January 1st, 2010!

53rd Tuesday weigh-in



226.0 lb

Aargh! The numbers on the scale sucked.. but I still fit great in my new jeans. I have exercised all 6 days faithfully and tracked my food 5 of the 7 days. It was fun to see Grandpa and Candace last night, but it was a bummer that Linc and Randy punked me and didn't show up. Next up: Hannah's birthday, Thanksgiving, ward party, work party, Christmas party, New Years party... but most importantly: more weekly posts with losses!

52nd Tuesday weigh-in



225 lb

Gain of 2lbs... but, to focus on the positives, I am wearing size 34 jeans without too much trouble which is a huge improvement over size 38's. Blue cheese dip and pretzel crisps are probably not a good thing for me to have around... but it's worth it occasionally. Rebecca's birthday party had me eating cobbler and ice cream which didn't help me either. At least I am hitting the gym consistently. I am also tracking food I eat but I slack off on tracking food I eat on the weekend. It has been a year since I started weekly weigh ins. I will keep doing them as I feel it keeps me from gaining or getting off track and helps to motivate me to lose. I have a more energy than I used to and, with two kids, I need every femto-joule I can get.

51st Tuesday weigh-in



223.0 lb

Loss of 0.5 lb, yay. Tracking food on thedailyplate again helped, Halloween candy and carmel apples did not help. Exercised as usual.
