My parents hated me so they saddled me with the name Augie when I's just a pup. When I created my first e-mail account I used bigaugbiker cuz I'm large, I'm Aug, and I was a biker. I sold all the bikes a while ago , all my toys really, so now I'm just bigaug. Thursday truth - I have been very negative lately, I need to be…

Wednesday wish - wish I could stay motivated. I've been going through the motions for over a week now. The needle is barely moving, I feel like I am working my butt off, hungry all the time, and my reward is bupkis. So far behind on thread catcherupperology that I'm just starting over again. Hope I haven't missed too much.…

Friday fitness - I didn't go to the gym Saturday, Sunday, or Tuesday. I guess I lose Friday fitness. I did do some mileage over the weekend but it's not the same as gym time. @Robin - Prayin your surgery went well. @Bella - You've got a tough row to hoe, I wish you the best. Preferably low stress best. aug

Thursday truth - I haven't checked in since last Friday. I've also got myself all twisted up food wise. I made BBQ spareribs on Monday, in order to have enough calories to eat some I skipped a meal or 2, or all of them. Now I'm paying for it, been hungry for 4 days now. I've managed to not binge a bunch, but I'm right on…

That I'm a mechanic because there are always tools and bottles of fluids (signal fluid, horn grease, muffler juice, etc.) on the floor of my truck. I have done more than my fair share of 'roadside tune-ups' so I carry what I need with me.

Grain free Blue Buffalo. The greyhound has a very sensitive stomach, we think it's a gluten thing, no troubles on the grain free foods.

Farts are funny! I am experiencing the same thing. The healthier the stuff I'm eating the more gas I make. If we could only harness this energy I could drive myself to work everyday on the power of yesterday's salad! I've tried a few otc things but I still end up crop dusting here at work. If the stuff she recommended…

Was there a big sign, "Caution Gamma Radiation" anywhere nearby? Does the spot turn green? Sorry about your son's issues. Thursday truth - I did strength training this morning and skipped the cardio, with the intention of mowing the lawn tonight - the truth part - I rue the idea of mowing tonight and I'm doing some…

Tuesday goals - early to bed early to rise. Be on time. aug

Monday check in - spent the weekend with my family, if that won't make you binge on a mountain of junk food I don't know what will. I'm being mouthy, I didn't do too awful until we got home. Took my freshly repaired truck out to go the gym and the water pump let loose. It was a pizza and truck fixerupperology until the wee…

Less than half the calories sticky buns - from the chew - Check out these less than half calorie (half the calories than the real thing) whole wheat sticky buns on the chew. 300(?I don't remember the exact number) versus over 700 calories per serving of the real thing.…

Thursday truth - I am grumpy. Yep I said grumpy. We are traveling this weekend to see my family, so bring on the drama baby, cuz you know I love me some drama. Next week my better half starts back to school, which means that she devolves emotionally to high school. She has told me a thousand times, "You are not my father,…

Wednesday wish - I wish that the people who post political garbage on facebook (&MFP), or forward political e-mails to me, would take one minute of their lives and google all that political spin doctor crapola. If they did, I'd prolly only get 3 e-mails per week. Carl Rove and his ilk should be spammed to death. Line em…

Tuesday goals - leave earlier on workout days so I'm not skipping important exercise time. I was 20 minutes late for the gym this morning, and had to leave before I finished. On the other hand, I'm going, and that feels great. Plus the gun show is worth every minute of it, call a vet cuz these pythons are sick! :D aug

I've been slacking lately, but I'm back at it now. I'll weigh in in a couple days. aug

Monday check in - After finally making the scale move last week I went ahead and did an epic fail type weekend. Friday was the only day I really went over on calories but I made bad food choices all weekend. Break out the duct tape and strap that ice cream directly onto my *kitten*. Anyway, today is a new day and I'm going…

Trying to read posts but Walter da cat is in my lap with his motor running butt in my face, the weiner DannyBoy is on my hip nudging my elbow, "Get to rubbing the weiner," and Dale da greyt greyhound is lying on my feet crying, "I wanna go to the park." Critters is a joy and pain. You can close the group and make it open…

It's very late. Why don't we just close the group? I loved that it was open but sometimes... aug

Just my 2 cents, though I do want change back. My mudder lives in an area where fresh produce is 25 miles away. There is, however, a decent restaurant that has a salad bar. She will go to the restaurant and fill up a container with a few days worth of fruits and vegetables for about 7 dollars. If you're not trying to fill…

Thursday truth - I don't have time right now to read through your posts because I'm under the gun for a project I've been procrastinating on for about a month, oops. Another truth, when I was a young pup my buddies and I would go to the gym just before we went out. We'd get the muscles all big and swollen from lifting…

Wednesday wish - an easy button! I wish my leg swelling would go down - arthritis sucks yall. aug
-
Tuesday goals - I posted this on my profile earlier, "Today is my first day... again. I've been entirely frustrated by my reduction lately, or lack thereof. Whatever I am doing I am doing it very very wrong. So today I am starting over. It's obvious that I cannot eat back exercise calories and expect to reduce. Nightly…

Monday check in - I'm here. I read someone's blog about weighing in once a month, it made sense so I'm going to try that. I had to come back to work to rest up from a very busy weekend. Mowed the lawn, huge lawn sad little push mower because the tractor has a flat. Cleaned house. Grocery shopping at the farmer's market.…

@Bellawares - Hope your mom's surgery goes well, here's prayin. Friday fitness - I haven't been to the gym in over a week. I don't feel bad about it though. I took the transmission out of my truck, twice *#$*rotten*%&*rat8*#%*c(*&ks*)^*ck(ng*%**pieceOcrap*$##*!!!!. I feel like I've been doing 'mountain climbers' (as my old…

@ndetmer - You don't seem offensive... hehe football humor. @alleykat69 - I have a mother that 'helps' me in my journey with you're too fat statements, actually I have a few helpers around. When she starts I can usually derail her with a heart felt "Bite me you old bat!" If she persists I go to the old cliche's, "If you…

Wednesday wish - I wish I could have a month or 2 of Sundays just so I could catch up on all my house work, car work, work work, and still get to the gym work. I wish I didn't feel so much like a fraud on here, the scale hasn't budged in weeks and I feel like a failure most days. Oh, and I wish for a new Harley :) This…

Wuhu! New thread! NEW THREAD! Tuesday goals - 1finish truck repair. 2 find Ford driveline engineer and kick him squarely in the... 3 finish at least one big project this month (paint or gutters and downspouts) and 2 smaller ones (i.e. the yard sale sideboard needs to be finished so does the antique dresser). 4 keep going…

He walked around the van. Look in the ignition, no keys. Without wasting another moment he began running in the direction the van appeared to have come all the while thinking, "Get to the highway, get help. The cops can help the cowboy." With no idea how long he been running his heart leapt when over his own breathing, the…

I've got a mini weber and an offset smoker. The smoker was a Char... something but I have changed it so much that it isn't recognizable from when it was new. I haven't done any BBQ yet this year but I have about done about 10 chickens, burgers - and yes some of them were turkified, steaks, a buttload of veggies, and a…
