This blog serves as an inspirational and entertaining progress report on my seemingly never-ending journey to 200 pounds.

Mini-Update for May...


I've been short on time lately, and with the half marathon fast approaching, my schedule has been filled with hard training and sound sleeping.

My weight isn't really dropping at a rate that I approve of, but it IS dropping. I've remained disciplined with my eating and workouts, hopefully culminating with a successful 21km run on the 21st of June. My longest run was 15kms last weekend, and that was in a less than ideal situation. I think after this weekend I should be well-prepped and ready to go. Feeling confident.

Long story made short, everything has been going as planned, but I'd still like to see a greater drop in weight over a 4-week span. My 3-month WW membership expires at the end of the month, and I don't think I'll be renewing. We'll see how the summer goes on my own, I may be back for a tune-up in Autumn.

"Mini-update" indeed. Nothing news-worthy, but I still felt inclined to share what little I did have.

Reasonable portions make for reasonable waistlines!

hey trev...sounds like you are right on track, but you have to remember that WW only advises that you should be losing .5 to 2 lbs a week, they consider this a healthy weight loss rate...not something that most want to hear...BUT, if you stick with it (doesn't mean you have to keep up your membership) it does work! I myself am no longer attending my meetings (one week in so far) AND my last meeting i had a huge gain of 3.8 lbs (not the way i wanted to leave), but this week, i followed the program to a tee and incorporated a daily workout DVD called the 30 day shred and have lost 6 lbs!!!
good luck to you on your marathon!!!

Thanks for the comment! I'm a little dumbfounded about only losing a pound over the course of the last month, and it's also a little disheartening. I stayed on plan, and didn't achieve the expected results. Hopefully the remainder of the summer has greater successes in store.
