Lost 12.75 pounds last week...

Lost 12.75 pounds last week...

But this was not the way I want to lose weight. I have pulled a muscle in my back and am in extreme pain right now. No appetite because of the pain. Total of 44.5 pounds lost since Feb. 21. (34 days). Hope I start feeling better soon. I miss the exercise!

Here are few more pointless ramblings:

- I discovered that I love Jonagold apples! They are awesome! Braeburn are also really good as well.

- People in Roanoke do not know how to drive for the most part. Stop on green, go on red, and merging off of an exit, forget about it!

- I generally do not take many drugs other than the occasional asprin or Excedrin. God bless the muscle relaxers last night! Had not slept for 3 nights in a row!

- I got a new keyboard and it is smooth!

- 8 years ago today, we moved into our house and that night, we go 4 inches of snow. We are supposed to get snow tonight! Kinda cool.

- It stinks being hurt and not being able to do the things you love to do!

Another good loss, -7.25#

Lost 7.25 pounds this past week. Total loss of 31.5 pounds in 29 days. That is 7.2% loss from my starting weight. Very long way to go but a great first month! Do not know how much longer I can keep up this pace and I am going to keep on working really hard at this! Feeling good but still have aches and pains. Knee is much better but the hip has arthritis and that does bother me. I feel better when moving than when standing.

Ate too much for lunch today and felt like crap after!

Updates and random thoughts...

My plan is moving along. I am not down 18 pounds since February 21! Many many more to go. I have been averaging about 1,200 calories per day. That is really low for a man of my size! Have a bum knee right now but I am working through it all!

And not for some meaningless, random thoughts...

- I do not understand Lady Gaga, but I guess I do not need to understand.
- Why are people mean, just for the sake of being mean?
- I am tired of the rain for the moment!
- My hands have been soaking in heavy duty grease cutter all day. Talk about a chemical peel!
- I have become a coupon clipper! I try to be smart about it!
- Dogs are so cool; and pugs are really goofy!
- If you want to die, texting and driving is probably a pretty good way to go about that!
- I really despise credit card companies! I paid off a card, but still got a bill because of interest. So I paid that bill and got another bill for .40 so I paid that one off but I paid .50, and then got another bill for .10. "Come on man!" They really have to go be kidding!

All for now! Cheers!
