Business Trips
Back from a week long trip of buying hotel breakfasts, buying lunches, dinners and "out of order" fitness rooms. I tried to log everything in the beginning, but couldn't keep up. Spotty internet didn't help. Airport food can be great tasting, but calorie intense. Everything should get back to normal soon, but wow it was a…

Getting it back after the holidays
Slowing down the overeating is in progress. I have 2 or 3 meals to get through, then back to business. New Years is coming. I do plan on more strength training and maintaining my cardio while improving my form on my bike and making an effort to improve my overall posture.

Lost my Fitbit - Grrr
I can't believe how much of a motivator that thing is/was. I will wait for the next one to be available before I buy anything, unless there's something better out there.

Let's go a bit farther
After looking at various charts and myself in the mirror, I will be lowering my target weight another 10 lbs.

I was going to work on Wednesday. I heard on the radio that they were giving away free creme puffs. I thought that would be nice…

I have been slacking lately. Although I have increased my bike riding, which has greatly helped endurance and lower body fitness, I have all but abandoned going to the gym. As a result, my upper body is getting a little jiggly. I guess I just need to motivate myself to get there.

Assumptions vs Diligent Diary Entries
I was going to say in another forum that my goal is 30g of carbs per day. MFP doesn't track net carbs so the carb total didn't get as much attention as it should have. As it turns out, I have been way over in my assumed intake of carbs. In fact I was over double with an average of 65g a day. Luckily I was pretty consistent…

Note to Self:
Check calories on what you pack for lunch before you pack it, not after you get home with an empty lunch bag. Usually I do pretty good. Sunday was a killer for me (took wife and mom to MD buffet) and today I thought I was back to normal until I found my little pieces of summer sausage was insanely high in calories. I would…

Half Way There
Made it to 50 pounds lost! Yay me! Another 50 would be great, although I anticipate those dreaded plateaus in the future yet.
