Weight=206 : Sugar=107

I shouldn’t be so long between fatblog updates. I will try to keep to a more weekly update schedule. Well as you can see I haven’t budged at all on the weight. I am just where I was two weeks ago. On the sugar front, however, I am doing fantastic. I am supposed to keep below 120 and I’m easily within that target.

My challenge remains weight. I have not hit the exercise as much as I need, although I get two very good workouts every week with my karate training. Clearly I need more. The diet is not half bad, but I have never had a huge problem there. My biggest diet problem continues to be breakfast. It’s just so damm easy to get an Egg McMuffin on the way to work and yes I eat the hash brown.

I have the typical diabetic round belly and I hate it. Any particular workout tips for this would be greatly appreciated. As usual, I just have to flat out work harder.

Weight=206 : Sugar=85

Welcome to the first fatblog. Goal for sugars are to be below 120. This is always measured first thing in the morning. So far, so good. Goal for weight is to maintain at around 195. So only 11lbs to loose. I’m not so worried about getting to 195 as I am about maintaining that weight.

Bigger State of Denial – Cheney or Balmer

Steve Balmer is not worried about the iPhone and Dick Cheney says the blunders in Iraq have not hurt the administrations credibility. So, who is in a bigger state of denial?

God Help Us All

These two idiots are running for president. It’s whacked out conservatives like these that will destroy the republican party. Both republicans and democrats need to firmly reject their extremes. Moderation and no one issue candidates please.
