{EAV:ded17e0817e97bac} Recently I re-started a blog, One Man's Loss, where I detail my journey trying to finally shed years of excess weight and eat healthy. Having purchased a FitBit after The Brand Chef insisted, I wanted a way to show my daily stats on my blog. The problem is, the FitBit data doesn't readily allow us to embed its stats (yet) so I had to find another way. The Brand Chef noticed there was a link to sharing FitBit stats on a wordpress.com page, and thought I should … [Read more...]

But like all good things, I got lazy. Especially during the winter, and then last year I wasn't working out swordfighting, so I've grown and grown. And now, I seem to be a … [Read more...]
I Can't Cook… or can I?
Posted on August 19, 2007 Written by
One of the hard things for me about sticking to a "diet" is the fact that I can't cook. Or rather, I don't THINK that I can cook, because its so much easier to go to Wendys and get that Spicy Chicken sandwich with fries - Biggie size. Last night on Dateline (ABC) I saw mention of The Abs Diet, a bestseller that not only says why foods work, but includes 12 major foods that are "good" that can be mixed any way you want. And the best part - the menus / recipes are "male friendly." So here … [Read more...]
