224.5 lb
No change. The birthday party and pizza party in Cedar City didn't help me lose. I feel good though. I love exercising and having more energy from exercise, I just don't love the sore feet and ankles.

35th Tuesday weigh-in
224.5 lb
Neglected to post the bad news of a gain, until now. The steaks and cake I had on Sunday are probably the primary cause of my gain on Tuesday but I think they were worth it. I have been much better this week (since Sunday) by eating shakes for lunch and dinner and eating much more fresh fruits and vegetables. I have a weigh in on this Friday with a personal trainer as well. I really want to show at least a fat percentage loss for that weigh-in as it will track my progress for the past month. I can establish a habit of consistent exercise and go for a long streak of consistent exercise but after a consecutive three days of slacking off, it is really hard for me to get back in the habit again.

A certain neice told me something
Shortly after I got married in 2005, this niece said to me, "Now that you're married, you're going to get fat." I took it as a challenge and complement at the same time.
While I am not thin now (..yet), what she didn't know is I certainly am not as fat as I was before marriage, BEHOLD:
The above is me on the left "living the dream" at 320 lbs. So yes I am down about 100lbs from 2002 and I did it without surgery or personal trainers/expensive diet food etc... I do owe a lot to a Nordic Track recumbent bike and a book called "Body for Life" by Bill Philips.
In your face niece! She's probably too busy and/or cool to read my blog anyway.

34th Tuesday weigh-in
223lb
Up 1 lb again. I have been having too much food on the vacation. Got my XBOX360 setup with a short network cable but need a longer cable and phone jack installed to make the setup permanent (i.e. not having wires strung up everywhere). Rebecca signed up for NetFlix and so we watched Wall-e via XBOX last night. Linc was able to setup my VMware to run OSX and the iPhone SDK and used it to finish Assignment 1A for the Stanford iPhone development class.

33rd Tuesday weigh-in
222 lb
1.0 lb loss from last week. I was hoping for more but that is almost always the case. I am sore from doing dumbbell lunges, I only did 24 reps but it was enough to cause some major tightness and soreness today.
I watched the wedding video we had done with Rebecca on our anniversary and I can't tell if I am heavier or lighter now than I was back then. I think that is a good thing because it probably means I am about the same weight as I was then. Next year I plan on mocking my former self as a wimp and a fatty by losing more weight and building more muscle. Just finished a homemade sandbox for the back yard but 10 bags of sand was not nearly enough, 20 more bags and we will have a pretty sweet play area for Eleanor. I have some pics but they are still on the camera which does you no good.
