October 10 2009 Update
I’ve been away from my blog posting for quite a while. I had
some injuries to my right ankle and then my left knee. It’s been
a unique couple of months…
In short I have not been exercising at all.
Three weeks ago…
I had some other medical symptoms that lead me to go a get
prostate exam and then some other tests…
I got all the results back on Friday from all the tests I took.
Additionally, I got some news from those test I wasn’t expecting.
I’ll post early next week about my results but I need a couple days
to rap my head around it…
Bottom line…Life is taking a new direction.
See you in a couple days…

It’s Not a Matter of If But When…
Hello Fat and Fit Fans,
I’ve been skinny and I’ve been fat…and guess what?
Skinny weighs less!
That sayying, when you’re a big guy there is more to love…
I now know is a crop of crap!
This is definitly a journey. I have tried all sorts of diets
but nothing has really stuck. Actually, more specifically,
it is me that has not stuck…
I can’t blame the diets because they all work if you work them.
It’s me that has not kept with the programs.
When I decide to try this once again on January 1, 2008 I was trying
to think what has to be different. What do I have to do differently this time
to accomplish my goal of lossing 100 pounds this year.
Well from Day 1 I said to my girlfriend Vickie the two things I believe
I need to implament into my diet this time is:
1. Being More Accountable and
2. Planning on Distractions.
So the idea of publicly blogging my Weightloss Journey was one way
to keep more accountable.
This has been a very humbling expierence. But the fact of the matter is,
blogging my results, good and not so good has help me to keep on track.
Have I been perfect on my diet choices so far?
Forgetaboutit!
But I have made better food choices than I have in the past.
Knowing that I am weighing in and postitng my weight loss
and weigh gains has helped me in times of crossroads.
Super Bowl Sunday I failed, But I got right back on.
This week has also not been great for me, but Im still
working out and blogging my progress.
Which brings me to…#2
It’s not a matter of if, but when…
Bottom line… challenges, problems and distractions in life
show up. Sometime on a daily basis.
I knew when starting this journey January 1, 2008 I would have to
plan better for these events, because I know…It’s not a matter of if but when
these events show up.
And yes, even though I made an effort to become more aware of
such events and how they may distract me from my path, I still
get off track.
An unexpected bill comes in and raises my stress level.
I tend to eat more.
Someone close to me gets sick…
I tend to eat more.
Vickie injured her eye and I got stressed.
Yes, I ate more.
So, I am more aware of my eatting habbits and patterns
but I have not mastered it yet. But I’m working on it!
Awarness is the firt step, so at least I am more aware.
I was watching Oprah and she had some diet guy on
and he said people use food as a sedative.
Bamm! It hit me right between the eyes!
Yes, this is what I have been doing. I’ve been using food to
medicate myself. Some people euse drugs, Coffee or Cigaretts.
Me, I use food…Hmmm.
This was an excellent awareness.
I will have to sleep on that though and see how I can implament
another action to replace the habbit of using food as a sedative.
I do know part of the answer is in planning for events to distract me
and knock me off my path. Having an alternative choice in place.
Ok, so I’ll pick just one thing that causes me stress…
I’ll give that some thought and then finish this post…
I’m tired so Im going to bed…
I Gotta To Remeber….No Chips – No Dip – No Candy – No Cake!
Have a Great Day,
Robby LeBlanc
