Fitness Update – Hiatus
Well, my regular routine has been a bit disrupted lately, starting last week with Martha being gone and continuing into this week with me being out of town. I did try to get back on track a bit while I’m … Continue reading
Hacking the Treadmill
I’ve been wanting to get back to posting more tech stuff on here, despite most of my time and energy seeming to get consumed with the fitness stuff, so the other night at the gym the thought struck me that … Continue reading
Fitness update: week 5
Not so great this week – only one pound lost. The average is still OK though; 18 pounds over 5 weeks. I think it’s mostly due to a general slacking of the schedule in combination with the meal cheating at … Continue reading

Well, it’s been a little longer than a week since my last posting on this, but it’s not because I’ve fallen off the wagon – just haven’t had a lot of time. As of Monday’s weigh-in, I lost another 3 … Continue reading
Gym oddities
Going to the gym more often has the side effect of letting you notice certain trends. One I noticed today that I thought I’d comment on is what I call the “gym posers”. At our gym, the treadmills are up … Continue reading
Fitness update – week 1
My apologies to anyone who isn’t interested in reading about this, but I think I’m going to plan on posting weekly updates from here on out. The first week went as good or better than I could have expected. I … Continue reading
