Perhaps just the Somewhat Big Melon?



Ok, thanks to my brother Rob, I am focused on people seeing less of me... losing weight and since the pharmaceutical industry is letting me down, I am on my own. He gave me this website (www.fitday.com) where you can get a free account and it will track what you eat, your work out and it keeps all the data.

For some reason having to type in what food I eat on there is a powerful thing. I mean, can anyone in good faith put down they ate a bag of Funyuns after dinner? A sleeve of Ho-hos? Nope. Not even 2 cups of something...

So now, everytime my hunger strikes me I think about putting it on the website and it deters me. Of course the flip side of that is exercise. So I am running one day then biking the next. I am sure the weather will give out at some point but...

My Aunt Idy used Nutrisystem to lose weight. My Dad is trying the same, except he is buying his astronaut food off ebay (I swear he is frickin nuts).

But I think the Rob method: keep your intake of calories below your usage and you'll lose weight might work for me. Did I mention I hate running? And yes, that is bow on Ians head...

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
