Self Sabotage

I was on my way to pay the membership fees for the YMCA.. I had my application in hand and money in my pocket when I left work early last Thursday to head south to the Thorton YMCA.

It was 5:00 so traffic was a madhouse and I mistakenly took the B.A. from downtown. I sat …

Back on Track . . .Again . . .and Again.

I know, I know, I know, Internets, it's been a long ass time since you've heard the tales of one Fubsy McChubberson and his adventures in weight-loss / training for runs (say WHAT?!), but I'm back. For good. For real.

It's almost exactly 2 weeks until I turn 30 and I …

Hit Addiction and Obscure Searches

I'm addicted to Google Analytics. I check it everyday to see how many people are reading, how people are finding me etc. I am obsessed with my visitor count. It's not the reason why I do this, but it's a great motivator. If I know people are reading consistently, then I …

The "I'm Broke" Diet

So the wife and I are trying to move the family into a new home soon and we recently budgeted ourselves in order to save money etc. So I get one hundred bucks every 2 weeks to buy what I want (i.e. burritos and cd's).

Well yesterday I bought an external hard drive to …

Our Fat Film

Here is our entry for the 24-Hour Video Race. We have the video up on YouTube if you want to check out what people are saying or leave a comment yourself. There will be a screening of all the films at the Philbrook museum here in Tulsa next Thursday the 28th. That's …

Movie Makin' Disco Breakin'

I made a movie this weekend with my good friends Erin, Mike and Doug. We made it in a single day via a 24-Hour video race sponsored by Living Arts, Philbrook Museum, and Individial Artists of Oklahoma. Of course, it's about being fat. We are very proud of it. It was a …

Backfat on Trackfat

So, I'll see what I can do about this once a week post. I've certainly been neglecting my poor weight loss blog and I'm sure it has something to do with neglecting my poor Weight Loss. But I'm feeling good today. I've been bringing my lunch to work each day, eating …

Wednesday Weigh-In: Stand Still

So the last time I weighed was January 16th. It's been a couple of weeks, but I've been a bit more active (if you count playing Wii every 3rd night as active). I'm still eating quite a bit for lunch and I'm sure it has to do with the 2:30pm lunchtime I get everyday. It …

Wii Journal

Day 1: The Wii is installed and the family is loving it. Wii Sports will definitely give me a work out. I break a big sweat playing boxing for a couple hours. I question my parenting skills when I find myself saying "Quit crying, kid, you'll get your turn, but for now-- …

Wednesday What-In?

That is my "Oh Shit" face. Yea, so today is Thursday and I forgot to weigh yesterday . . . and today. Of course, I'm a little scared to weigh, but it also comes down to a logistics, too. The elevators that take me up to the awesome antique scale that I've been weighing …

Advertising is for ideas.

So I got two new ideas about losing weight, both inspired by actual magazine adds. First there was this one:
I have no idea what the hell "suspensoin" means, but the phrase "Freeze, wait, reanimate" is bad-frickin'-ass. So I'll just freeze myself until a cure for fat is …

Boobs, Brawls, and Bouncy Brothers

My wife and I were talking about growing up and being kids. Kym said she was the first one in her group to get boobs. Oddly enough . . . . so was I.
My baddass friend, Robert, who is of similar size, (and who will soon join me in the 3 kid club), has thrown down the …

Weigh-In Wednesday: How 0 is an Awesome Number

So one week has gone by and I lost a big Judge Whopnerin' 0 Pounds. Yep, internets, that's a big fat nothing, nil, nadda, zip, zilch, doodley squat. Although 0 is the fattest of all the numbers . . . That's pretty sweet.

Speaking of-- lets talk fat-friendliness of the …

Covering the Fat Issue

*


So one of my favorite magazines is Utne Reader. (NOTE: the cover above is not from the current issue. I just thought ol' G-Wash drinking a beer was rad). If you're not familiar, first off, you should check it out. It collects lots of really great articles from several …

Weigh-In Wednesday: 1 Pound at a time

Everybody's Got a Hungry Heart . . .

I assume that my constant state of hunger means I am eating less, but I still wonder if that's a good thing. Should I eat small healthy snacks when I am hungry or just tough it out until the next meal? I once had a doctor tell me "just don't eat," but he was kind of a …

Weigh-In Wednesday: 2008 Edition

I know it's been a while, but today is Wednesday which means that today is the day I face the cold hard truth of what 2 months off the wagon will do. That's right., internets, it's Weigh-In Wednesday.


So as I made my way out of the 320 S. Boston Building at quitin' time, …

New Year's Highlights

First off, I gotta share a pic of Kym's finger. It really doesn't do it justice, though. It looks much nastier in person and I'm sure it was more painful than it looks as well.

Besides one cup of coffee this morning and 2 glasses of wine with dinner, I only drank water …

A Strange Close

It was a strange close to the year 2007. Kym was cutting up some carrots for a dinner dish with a brand new, shiny, sharp knife when she slipped up and cut a huge chunk of her finger damn-near plum off. We wrapped it in a dry cloth, called her sister to come watch the …
