My friends Jeff & Heather came over tonight and helped me do alot of the prep involved in following the p90x meal plan, for which I am eternally grateful. I’m a dog in the kitchen, despite my sister’s best efforts to help me not be. Afterward, they...
I was only out of town alittle over two weeks, but I used it as an excuse to not post for about a month. This changing your life thing in public is harder than I could have imagined. At the beginning, when you’re seeing results, and you’re pumped because...
A great weekend away has me feeling really good today. The scale this morning was up (alot), but it was well worth it to have a little mini-vacation. Getting away for just a couple of days and not having to worry about my day-to-day life has really helped my outlook...

The last week has been, yet again, incredibley busy for me. Aside from posting my weigh in every morning, I’ve not had any time for the site. I’m out of town for the next 4 days, so that isn’t likely to change in the near future. Stress, combined...
