After staying a bit flat last week, I have some downward momentum again. Oddly enough, I splurged the other day (for the first time in 6 weeks) and actually consumed more calories than allowed to maintain my current weight. In a moment of weakness, I decided to eat some White Castle cheeseburgers and other snacks. [...]
Progress is much slower than it used to be, but I’m ok with that. I’m looking at a few techniques that might help to jumpstart me losing again though. Here they are in no particular order:
Zig zagging- When you modify your food intake your body will respond by adjusting metabolism. Same thing for exercise. There [...]
One year ago today, Brian Button announced the St. Louis Code Camp. I helped Brian to put that on last year and enjoyed participating.
Three days ago, Brian announced the 2nd annual Code Camp. I’m looking forward to participating this year and perhaps giving a talk. If nothing else, I’ll be sitting in many more sessions [...]

Having a good week this week. Today’s menu- had a nice dinner of pasta and salad, but well balanced by this morning’s oatmeal and a lean sandwich and yogurt for lunch. No formal exercise, but did some chores that got me active for about 30-40 minutes today.
Steady progress, feeling great. My story in a nutshell- consistent exercise, eating no more than 2000 calories today, and eating a more balanced diet (ratio of fats/carbs/protein). I’m down almost 12 pounds in 3 weeks and I never really feel hungry. That definitely feels like success.
