NSFW Fatties

I have been neglecting the blog. I did get a scale.. but it has to be wrong.. Not for the reasons you think.. because there is no way I am that skinny. It said 173 pounds. Sorry. No. I have to be topping 200. Oh well.

Anyway here is some exciting fat pictures from Lose Weight Now. Enjoy.

Lazy Fat Blog Gets No Love

Not a lot of posting going on here yet.. but I will gear it up sometime.. like I will exercise sometime.. yeah.. anyway.. a sweet lady named Elaine Vigneault posted a link to an interesting article about a guy who tried Veganism for one month.

Now I am pretty sure this diet would be tough for me. I am horrible about looking things up and really checking out what I eat. I mean it taste good I eat it. Nuff said. However it was interesting reading about his experience. I may give it a try sometime... like around when I start exercising.. yeah..

Broke the Ban

I broke the ban on coke my loyal readers.. do not worry, I am back on the bandwagon.. you see I just could not resist. I came home and sitting at the table was food. Now this is amazing in itself as I can count the times on one hand my wife has had dinner waiting for me. My children helped setup the meal. We all sat down for some pasta with turkey sauce. My kids worked really hard on the meal and my son turns to me and says "Look dad I made you a coke and it is cold".. and I looked.. and saw that little heart shaped ice cubes of love were in that coke. He was smiling so wide and happy and I just had to drink that coke. I swear that is the last one though.

Fatty Blogs Are Lazy Blogs?

I swear I do not post on this blog as much as I should.. is that because I am fat? Are fat people naturally lazy? Is this a myth? Anyway.. the diet coke think continues on been doing good with that.. of course I am too fat and lazy to go out and buy a scale and figure out if it is doing anything.. jesus.. I really need to get that scale because this blog will be no fun without it.

Also apparently just being associated with a fat blog makes you lazy about posting as neither of my co-posters have written anything. I am too lazy to yell at them.

I did have a good thought today.. since I am lazy I like to sleep on the train on the way to work.. when me move buildings that will probably mean I miss my stop.. which would give me a good excuse to walk from South Station to Downtown.. hmmm.. possibilities..

Until then I my exercise consists of.. Standing on the train for 40 minutes.. um, I could not find how many calories that burns.. stupid free web counters..

A good starting point

So I have been doing my research while sitting on my ass waiting for motivation to come by and pick me up and make me exercise.. umm, ya, right.. like that is going to happen.. and yet in some ways it has.. but before we get to that.. here are some good quotes I found on the internet about starting to diet.

Fitness is a lifestyle. It is a conscious step we make each day to take care of ourselves. I like to think that keeping fit is an investment for my future. The minutes and hours spent each day exercising could mean added years of vitality and energy in my later years. I definitely want to be able to keep up with my grand kids one day. So put on your shoes, let's run!"

Saying "I want to lose weight" is never enough. Saying "I aim to lose 1lb per week through watching what I eat and working out 3 times a week of 30 minutess cardiovascular training, 20 minutes of weight training and 10 minutes of stretching per session" is more the real deal. The difference should be obvious.

Anyway.. I was sitting around actually working (how many calories does thinking burn an hour?).. and my boy Trauma comes online and we start talking about diet. Now I thought Trauma was really skinny based on his Yahoo! messenger icon. However he cleared that up by telling me that was Jesus from the Big Lebowski.. shit he was bowling so I thought it was Trauma. Anyway.. he has some experience losing weight and convinced me to start with the sugar intake. So instead of drinking 3-4 cokes a day I will switch to diet for 2 weeks. I will see how much I can lose just by that small change and possibly give myself some motivation to kick in some exercise.

I am going to put a fat-o-meter on the sidebar so you can all follow along too.. I have been reading about Axeman trying to lose weight.. now if I could only get him to take me to Vegas if I lose 30 pounds I would be all set..

Motivation

I am still figuring out the path that the blog is going to take but I figure I need some motivation.. So I invited two lovely ladies to do the heavy lifting with me. We will each bring our own perspectives to the blog as we are all VERY different. Please welcome Gracie from SheVerb and Katitude from Katitude Does Poker.

Fatty Bloggers are Poker Bloggers too

My new fatty blogger friends are actually poker bloggers too! I was pretty surprised that Tim (if that is your real name, I know we fatty bloggers sometimes use aliases) knew me from my poker blog!! HA! Anyway thanks for the welcome Tim! Even though I am a bit tongue and cheek with the weight loss blog I am really hoping it motivates me to exercise and get into shape.. If I am as successful as in poker.. well here I come 400 pounds!!!! WOOT!
