But will I be your biggest loser?

You know, that question is really loaded. So I did not win the biggest loser contest at work. Lost out to a person who had a shorter road to 10% by about .8% but I am not sad. I have now lost about 30 pounds and just purchased a pair of 38 jeans that fit and do not look painted on. I find it crazy to be happy about 38s but I am and it shows, or so people say. This weekend should be fun. I will see people I have not seen in months, who last saw me at almost 40 pounds heavier than I am now. Crazy. The battle with gluten continues and it is getting harder. It seems that the intolerance I had built up thru my life is now all gone and any wheat now really does a spell on me. But we adapt and that has been fun. We recently got in a shipment of Gluten-free cake mix, baking mix and 26 pounds of corn pasta. If you did not know us you may think we were Italian. Anyway onwards and downwards...

Time for another quick update.

A weekend at the beach and a week traveling to TX was not good for my eating plan. So after getting back on the Primal Blueprint track things are starting to move in the right direction again. Down. That's right down. As of Saturday (6/19/10) morning I'm down 31.2 lbs in 14 weeks. Which is about 2.2 lbs per week. Overall since January that brings the total lost to 37.2 lbs!

So still on the right track. Back to about 80% primal diet and still feeling good.

Just a quick update on how things are going with the Primal Blueprint.

So far so good. This is week 8 of "Going Primal" and I've lost 28.4 lbs! That's about 3.2 lbs per week. Not to shabby. Since January 2010 I've lost 34.4 lbs but the majority of that weight loss has been by following "The Primal Blueprint"...

Eating better, feeling better, sleeping better. So far so good!

Update: Dale (5/3/10)

So it's been about 6 weeks since I read and started following the Primal Blueprint and so far the results have been positive. Even with a few days of not strictly adhering to the blueprint. In the 6 weeks I've been eating healthy, I've dropped 23.6 pounds! I feel great, sleep better and I'm more focused at work. I haven't added much fitness to my weekly routine yet. The 23.6 pounds I've lost so far is just from changing what I was eating and drinking.

All in all I'd recommend the Primal Blueprint for anyone thinking about making some changes in the way they eat, workout, sleep, play.

I'll keep you all posted on my progress!

Welcome Scott!

I'd like to take a minute and welcome a fellow Fat Bastard to the site. Scott will be blogging along with me while we work on become smaller Fat Bastards. :)

Welcome Scott, feel free to kick the tires so to speak. Write some lines. If you are blogging away on here I might even update my stuff more. :)

Quick Update

Things are going well, still getting the Papa Spuds Service, cooking more at home and excersizing. Riding the stationary bike pretty much everyday for about 60 minutes. At least I get to catch up on all the shows that are on the DVR. :) Not really dropping many lbs, but I feel much better and my knees aren't hurting quite as bad these days. All in all everything is going well. I am going to throw in some swimming and some weight training over the next few weeks and see how that goes.

More to follow...
