  • Week 26 in the Program

    I’ve been bouncing around some.  But I finally broke the 100-pound mark. Weight this week | Change since last week | Total change 271.0 | -6.6 | -102.0 NB: I’ve recalibrated a bit here to use the original weight as measured by PWMC (373 lbs), since that’s where I’m getting my weekly numbers. Six months…

  • Week 16 in the Program

    Weight this week | Change since last week | Total change 304.0 | +4 | -64.4 This is the first week in which I’ve gained, rather than lost weight, and it’s a simple morality tale: It’s also the first week in which I went “out of the box” a significant amount. While at Lunacon, I…

  • Week 13 in the Program

    Weight this week | Change since last week | Total change 307.0 | -3.6 | -61.4 Blood Pressure | Systolic | Diastolic * | 112 | 74 My weight loss is a little less than last week but certainly satisfactory at nearly 4 lbs. I suspect that rate isn’t entirely sustainable but I’ll take what…

  • Week 12 in the Program

    Weight this week | Change since last week | Total change 310.6 | -6.6 | -57.8 Blood Pressure | Systolic | Diastolic * | 112 | 86 It seems I’m back on track. I primarily credit the recalibration of my physical activity, which means I’m doing more. I’ve been forcing myself to go a little…

  • Week 11 in the Program

    Weight this week | Change since last week | Total change 317.2 | -0.8 | -51.2 Blood Pressure | Systolic | Diastolic * | n/a | n/a Not a terribly uplifting week, not that I expected one. Coming off being sick and then flying out to Chicago threw off my stride. In particular, I had…

  • Week 10 in the Program

    Weight this week | Change since last week | Total change 318.0 | -0.8 | -50.4 Blood Pressure | Systolic | Diastolic * | 112 | 84 Well, this is the week I plateaued. I can feel a little proud because I broke the 50-lb barrier (barely!) but it is by far the worst week…

  • Week 9 in the program

    The truly observant will notice that somehow I skipped from Week 7 to Week 9. I’m not a time traveler… I had miscounted earlier. *sigh* Weight this week | Change since last week | Total change 318.8 | -6.6 | -49.6 Blood Pressure | Systolic | Diastolic * | 120 | 70 I fell just…

  • Week 7 on HMR

    Weight this week | Change since last week | Total change 325.4 | -5.8 | -43.0 Blood Pressure | Systolic | Diastolic * | 120 | 80 I had a pretty good week, losing almost six pounds. It’s not quite a record but I’ll take it. 🙂 My blood pressure has clearly settled down to…

  • Holiday Weight Loss

    Weight this week Change since last week Total change 341.6 -2.4 -26.8 After two weeks of holidays, my total weight loss was 4.6 pounds.  While that represents a falling-off of my original rate, such is to be expected.  And at least I can say I lost weight during the holidays, which is something uncommon in…

  • How to Save a Life

    Weight this week Change since last week Total change 344.0 -2.2 -24.4 Just like JD, I often think of that song… Anyway, if you’ve been reading our story so far, you know that an aching tooth sent me to (of all places) the cardiologist’s office. He mandated a number of lifestyle changes to help me…
