Back from the dead

Today's weigh in: 192.8

Sorry I've been gone so long guys. Life is freaking nuts right now, and I just haven't had time to sneeze without falling behind lately. As a matter of fact, I'm supposed to be doing homework right this very second, but I just felt like posting since I haven't done it in forever. I'm going to try to get to all of your pages ASAP, but be patient with me. If they don't send me home from work early again tomorrow, it might take me awhile. So how is everybody?

I never really should've decided to wait after posting my hundred pounds lost blog. I decided to leave it up for awhile so that everyone would see it and ended up getting out of the habit of posting totally. I feel like a bum, but what's done is done and it's time to move forward.

Ok, so it's been forever since my last post and my weight hasn't gone down much, but I'm down another pants size, and I'm starting to see a bit of muscle added in my arms so maybe that makes up for part of it. The weight workouts are starting to feel really good though, and the amount of weight on my bar, although small to start with, is over twice what it was when I started. Maybe that's not that big of a deal, but it sure feels good to say. Eating has been pretty decent for the most part too, and I'm thinking that if my waist keeps shrinking I'm probably doing something right even if my freaking number won't fall like I want it to. Who knows? I do know this much though: A smaller gut is a good thing.

That's about all I have time for guys, but thanks for stopping by. I'll be by all of your pages when I can. And somebody please check my blog roll and see if we've added anyone while I was out. Thanks.

Welcome back to the land of the living, Jim!

That's a great feeling in regards to your weight training, isn't it? I had a similar epiphany this week at about the same level.

I'm five months or so into seriously hitting the gym, and it's been such a great feeling to watch the weights go up with my strength.

Keep it up!

Glad to have this blog back up and running - we need to get together eventually and talk about our 3-day fundraisers. I've been slacking badly on getting them going. Tentatively the poker night is coming up quick, and bowling is right behind.

Good to see your weight still coming down - and school still being insane ;)

Glad to see your weight has continued to go in the right direction given your blog hiatus. We need winners like you around here helping push the rest of us (so glad to see you back in FAT action). This (staying healthy) is a lifetime commitment right? Glad to see your still residing in Onederland. If your waist is shrinking then your doing the right thing. Try to post more often cause I like to read your blog. How about a picture too? You have lost allot of weight since your other pics.
