Does it taste sweeter because it was forbidden?
<sigh> Two months into my lifestyle change and I had my first loss of control... http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/kingking/view/falling-off-the-wagon-20093

Achilles tendon...
Went to see the doctor yesterday...My foot pain isn't plantar fasciitis, but is instead a damaged Achilles tendon. It's probably partially torn. Treatment is straight-forward, but is going to severely limit my workouts for a number of weeks (between three and twelve weeks, depending). <groan> And I had settled into such a…

Sidelined by a foot injury...what to do?
I just blogged about the fact that my month-old workout schedule has been sidelined by a foot injury (blog here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/kingking/view/ouch-ouch-ouch-19408 )...

Five weeks, 20 pounds, a happy doctor, and feeling better
I passed a milestone this week...I feel different. My weight has gone from 253 to 233 as of this morning. I don't know if I have more energy, but I feel...different. My pants fit better (I'm wearing a pair now that we just about too tight a month ago), but that's not it. I've reclaimed a notch on my belt and am getting…
