Sunday Stats: I'm bringing nerdy back

Nothing to see here, folks, keep on moving! Okay, you’re still reading, so I’ll share my latest progress (or lack thereof) with you: Here’s what that looks like as a line graph: Since I’m a nerd, I thought to look at the data and see if I could find any trends. Do you see anything? [...]

Stressful Snacking?

Hey kettlefolks! For the past week, I’ve been in various coffee houses around Honolulu, working to a deadline. One of the joys of working for yourself is that you get to work anywhere! (Conversely, you don’t have an office or regular workspace.) Lately, I’ve been looking at this:               [...]

Sunday Stats – Back on Track!

I knew something good was happening when I put on what used to be my favorite pair of jeans, and there was so much room in the butt area, I looked like a badly-dressed senior citizen. To summarize:  I had a good week. Take a look at my stats! It’s fun to see that I’m [...]

Sunday Stats = Revisiting Goals

I’m constantly looking for new ways to measure myself. I don’t mean this metaphorically- I actually get online and look at different charts, indices and calculators. I guess it goes back to my psychological need to “measure up” in some way. Any way you look at it, I’m not progressing as rapidly as I need [...]

Sunday Wrap up- the good, the bad, and the ugly

Well, here it is, folks. My painstaking progress over the last 13 weeks. On average, I’m losing a pound a week. Last week, I lost EXACTLY one pound. I suppose that can count as part of the “good” news. My measurements stayed exactly the same, which I will also consider “good,” given all of the [...]

Final Results of Cleanse!

Clean living is the cardinal principle in the lives of the world’s greatest athletes. Marshall “Major” Taylor I finally finished! The 9-day cleanse, that is. When I began the two pre-cleanse days, I was weighing in at 202.5 pounds. Two days later, I began the Isagenix 9-day program, and this is where this video recap [...]

Sunday Satisfaction

Well, I didn’t meet my goal for today, but I did come pretty close! To come up with the numbers below, I took my final goal and divided my progress into thirds. Probably not the best formula, now that I think about it, but at least I was going for an average amount of change [...]

Cleanse Day One and Fun in the Sun

Aloha! And a great big good morning to San Francisco, Austin, Washington D.C. and Raleigh! My first day using the Isagenix Cleanse for Life was bearable. I wasn’t as hungry as I thought I’d be… but boy, do I miss food. I like eating. I realized today that one of the consistent sources of satisfaction [...]

Let's Get it Started!

So, I’ve been in a holding pattern over the last couple of weeks. My body has gotten used to training at the level I’m at, and my brain has settled back into a comfort zone of mediocrity. As I was cleaning out my files yesterday, I came across my HMSA “Health Pass” booklet that I [...]
