Tale of the Scale:8/28

Weight: 124#. down most of a pound. Don’t know if I’m burning it from the middle where it needs to disappear from, or where.
Saturday, while walking the dogs and using a chucker to throw balls for Jake, I tweaked the nerve and tendon in my shoulder. By the time I got [...]

Tale of the Scale: This one’s for Suzanne

Weight: holding steady at 125#. Since I’ve only been back working regularly in the gym for about a week, this is good. At this point I only need some rather stubborn belly fat, which I understand is the hardest stuff to get rid of. Patience is my test.
Plan for week of 8/26:Sunday: personal [...]

New Social Media is dangerous…

I think I may have figured one thing out: some social media is dangerous.
It used to be that I’d have a small “bloggable” thought. Just a notion or clever turn of word.. and I’d blog it.
Now I Twitter it. (if you have succumbed and don’t follow me, I’m debroby on twitter).
It’s out of [...]

Tagged… for Random Things…

Ya know, I love Laurie, I really do. (No, that Laurie, whom I also love, but this Laurie!) Which is probably the only reason that when she twittered me that I had been tagged by her, I didn’t hurt her! I’ve managed to avoid this meme for weeks, mainly because my friends do [...]

Tale of the Scale: 8/17

Weight: maintaining at 125#.
This is the first week that I have been able to be back in the gym working for 4 days. Would it have mattered if I showed up for 5 instead? I seriously doubt it.
My body has stablized at this point, which might not be a bad thing [...]

Progress Report

I must be starting to feel like my old/new self again. Walked the dogs Wednesday afternoon along one of our favorite paths and remembered to grab my camera before I left the house.
The pictures are varied but rather interesting, I think:There was something about this patched and rusty railroad car that intrigued me.
And this [...]

Tale of the Scale: 8/7

I’ve been sick since 7/24.. and have made it into the gym AT MOST once a week since then. My last visit was last Tuesday, and I probably won’t return until next Sunday.
So I’m not working out. OK, when I’ve got a little energy I may walk the dogs or do some of [...]

Playing with Web MD.

I first got a head cold on July 20th. It was getting better within a week, when it decided to settle in my throat with a dry, hacking cough. This past week, it’s added swollen glands too. It hasn’t gotten better, and I’m trying to decide if I should call the doctor tomorrow [...]
