Eazy E Says Don’t Let These Words Get In The Way of Your Progress
Posted by Ryan Sullivan on Mar 11th, 2010
We’re going to do things a little bit differently with this here spring cleaning post. You see, you’re going to give me the answers. I’ll show you the photos and you tell me which E word is represented. I’d also love to hear how you combat these words. I like to think we’re building a community here so please speak up and let your voices be heard. TEACH ME! In other news my dog got neutered yesterday and is doing well. Possible Example: Almost Having Your Pants...

Detrimental Words that Begin with D

Detrimental Words that Begin with D
Posted by Ryan Sullivan on Mar 10th, 2010
Do some Spring Cleaning and get these words out of your vocabulary today! They’ll only harm your progress! Deprivation – Even though I had to quit the bacon for a while in my personal journey, deprivation has such a negative mental impact. Many of us spend so much time focusing on the things we can’t eat that we forget about all of the amazing foods that we can. If you end up with a craving you can’t get rid of don’t let it build up inside of yourself with the end...

Weekend Warrior Report

Weekend Warrior Report
Posted by Ryan Sullivan on Mar 8th, 2010
I don’t have much time so this one has to be done in a hurry. In short, I finished two of my three goals. One of my goals I avoided on purpose just to be sure I wasn’t at risk of spreading any more ugly infections. (Link to post where I talk about bizarre infection). I did drink two gallons of water on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I did not run a 5K I did keep my calorie intake between 1800-2000 calories. It’s a good exercise and if we end up doing it again I guarantee I...

Well…I Ate Bacon

Well…I Ate Bacon
Posted by Ryan Sullivan on Mar 8th, 2010
Sound The Alarm! Send out the Infantry! Call in the Coast Guard, the FBI, the CIA, PETA! Hell, Future Farmers of America need to know about this! I ate bacon on Saturday! It’s true. I feel like I have betrayed you all. The worst part is, I liked it. Of course I liked it. I knew I was going to like it. My profound love for bacon is the reason I had to rid it from my diet completely 8 months ago. I don’t know how to explain what happened but it happened. Since Saturday I’ve...

Weekend Warrior Challenge

Weekend Warrior Challenge
Posted by Ryan Sullivan on Mar 5th, 2010
I almost forgot about this post and I really don’t have much time so I’m going to hurry and pound this out. Brandon over at SoLongFatAss is hosting the Weekend Warrior Challenge. Basically it’s a challenge to see if we can carry the same weight loss momentum we’ve had during the week clear through the weekend. It seemed like a great idea to me since the weekend is usually when I tend to slip up. I made this fun little badge for the challenge: I’m supposed to set...

Throwback Friday, Sidelined, and The Letter D

Throwback Friday, Sidelined, and The Letter D
Posted by Ryan Sullivan on Mar 5th, 2010
We have a lot to cover in today’s post and only a little bit of time. Let’s get right to it! Sidelined I haven’t really brought it up much in the last few days because I don’t want to be a whiner, but I’ve been sidelined since Wednesday. I haven’t been able to workout at all! YUCK! Back in the day I would have loved any excuse that got me out of pumping iron or running a few miles, but it looks like things have changed because I feel like a slug from my...

Big C, Little C, These Words Cause Catastrophe
Posted by Ryan Sullivan on Mar 4th, 2010
Alas, there is not a story of forgetting my pants in this blog post. If that’s what you’re looking for you can go back in time and relive it with me. As a matter of fact there isn’t much of a story at all to go along with today’s post. Today is all business and all about spring cleaning. Have you started yet? I will tell you that as I sit here pounding this out on the keyboard my dog is barking at his own reflection in the sliding glass door. That reminds me, I still...

Are Runner’s High? Running sucks for fat guys! It’s seriously about the worst form of exercise that we can put ourselves through. Can you imagine taking 400 pounds and repeatedly dropping it on a couple of loaves of bread? That’s what we’re doing. We’re crushing a loaf of Wonder in the name of...
