Instead of blogging the last couple of days, I’ve been tinkering with this website. The redesign was inspired by the 3-column formats of LifeHacker, Blog Herald, The Daily Bite, and Jalopnik . I have very limited html skills, so please let me know if I broke something (very likely).

Lost some steam today. Ate some nachos, with the fake plasticky cheese. Not the best for ya. Must hit gym hard tomorrow.
Exercise Today:
30 minute walk with dog.

Holy crap. Maybe it’s working. I weighed in this morning at 210 lbs, down from 211 last week. I know they say losing 1-2 lbs. per week is sustainable, so here’s hoping! Gonna go play around at the beach again today for my exercise.

You always hear that you shouldn’t eat late at night. Why is that? Is it just because you usually don’t do too much after dinner, so the food calories won’t get burned immediately? Nope. It turns out, this is mostly a myth. In the end, it’s all about how many […]

Hey, it looks like Sunday morning weigh-ins are good for me! I weighed in this morning at 211 lbs. Gonna try and hit the gym for 30 minutes today.
