After three weeks with no change, finally 2020 Diet – Week 5 brings some progress. It was a fairly decent week. For the four days between Friday and Monday, I was in the hole, but apparently I made up for it Tuesday through Thursday. I wasn’t expecting to see much progress, but something evened out.

This is 2020 Diet – Week 4, and I’ve got very little to report. Almost nothing in fact. Actually, I’m only providing an entry at all because I promised myself I would check in every week this year. Before I get to it though, let me link you back to week one, so you can

Before I get started with my 2020 Diet – Week 3 check-in, let me first provide a link to my first post for the year. Also, here’s last week’s entry. Okay, let’s move on. Well, I’ll begin by stating that I thought this was a pretty good week. I did lose ground over the weekend,

This is my 2020 Diet – Week 2 check-in, and I have some good news to report. I’ve made some ground already. It looks like having a bright and shiny new year in which to work with has provided some much-need motivation. As a reminder, here’s where I started this year’s weight loss journey. My

This is my 2020 Diet – Week 1 check-in. It’s a new year and I hope to start it out putting the right foot forward. Then, I’d like to follow that with putting the left foot forward. Then, I’d like to repeat those two steps ad infinitum until it becomes a long walk, or perhaps

Well shit, Diet Check-in #15 is a lying liar! Alright, fine. It’s my fault. I haven’t been as focuses as I could be. I really let things get away from me. Should I even be surprised to find I’m sliding even further backwards. Probably not. How far backwards, you ask? Well, this morning’s weigh-in had

Diet Check-in #14 provides me some hope. I’m not nearly caught up to where I was before I started sliding backward, but I’ve at least recovered from Thanksgiving. Of course, the days leading up to Christmas and New Years will be riddled with their own pitfalls and challenges. Opportunities for cookies and treats will abound

For Diet Check-In #13, I might as well be admitting to a rock bottom of sorts. Why? Well, I’m up three pounds from last week. Yes! Three pounds! That makes this chubby dude sad. I guess I’m still weighing in less than I did when I started this train wreck, so it could be worse.

Sadly, diet check-in #12 does not come with good news. It doesn’t come with bad news either, I suppose. It only comes at all because I’ve apparently committed myself to checking in here weekly, regardless of whether or not I’ve made progress. This week, again, there has been no progress. Well, I haven’t been making

Unfortunately, there’s nothing new to report with diet check-in #11. My weigh-in this morning resulted in the same sad number as last week, which was an even 260 pounds. That does suck, but it could have been worse. It could have been higher. Honestly, under the circumstances, I’m surprised I haven’t just been ballooning up.
