Life After 152 pound loss
I have been shocked by the image below. I have been showing it around, not to be vain but because frankly I can hardly believe it myself. I had LapBand in 2010 and lost some weight thanks to that, but in January 2012 I got my butt in gear and began exercising. My very first run was less than 1/2 a mile and in February I…

Cycling NSV - Sort of
Today I set a new PR for distance rode and made a killer hill here in Fort Worth my ***** all in 100 degree heat, but I was still disappointed. My goal was to ride from home to my wife's office and back which should have been around 30 miles. After climbing that hill and being out in the heat at mile 28 I just ran out of…

Coffee Creamer/ Flavor
So I a coffee addict. I drink coffee all day and until now drink it with 2 Splenda and flavored creamer. This adds about 50 or 60 calories per cup.

Nutrition & Exercise Absurdity
Warning: This is a rant After having lost over 100 pounds and being active on MFP for a few months I think people really over think nutrition and exercise, at least in the beginning. There is no doubt that someone who is training for a fitness competition, endurance event or strength training event need to watch his or her…

111 Pounds Lost + First Triathlon - Just Begin!

In October of 2010 I underwent Lap Band surgery and weighed 394 pounds. Fortunately, I had very few health issues except…
