3/4/10 212  Would seem hat I am a bit stuck.  Time to kick it into another gear.

I hear the gears changing already.  You're an inspiration to me.  Now that most of the snow has melted here, I need to get back to the running routine.  I don't even want to know what the scale says now. . .

Thanks.  I need to do better with eating on the weekends.  Also, as you may have read on the movie thread, my wife and I catch all the Best Picture nominees, and we always get a big ol' bucket of their popcorn.  Thank goodness we are done for a while.  I would hit it hard for a couple weeks before you bring out the scales.

Basically have not lost a pound in more than a month.  However, my eating improved this week so I am hopeful for some sort of breakthrough.

Keep the faith, Bill!

[MN Dave]

I have hit a long plateau where I'm not losing weight yet I'm still doing the same things, not slacking off at all.

So now, instead of trying to burn 400 calories a day, 5 days a week, I am switching to doing 10,000 steps *every* day, keeping the same number of calories consumed. We'll see how this goes.

[karlhenning]

Burn 'em out, Dave!

[MN Dave]

Thanks.

I must mention that my pants are looser. 

[karlhenning]

Well done!

I seem to have found a foolproof system at last:

1. Arrange to have an obstructed bowel (not seriously - make sure it's the sort they can fix easily).
2. Be admitted for emergency surgery.
3. Don't eat for 7 days (don't worry, you won't want to).
4. Weigh yourself and discover you lost eight pounds.

Easy really.

Yeah, I was on that diet when I had my appendix out a few years back. Works wonders.

Doesn't sound so easy to me!  I thought you'd been unusually quiet of late. . .

I have never read this thread before since for the longest time I thought Fat Enders was one of those Norwegian/Danish/Swedish composers I've never heard of.



Carry on ...

Trouble is though, Dave, that I suspect it doesn't last! Am I right or am I right?

[karlhenning]

Oh, the appendix stays out, I am sure.

You were closer than you think.  Fat Enders is a Norwegian cult jazz saxophonist, whose best-known works include 'Calorie Count Combo', 'Pound-shedder Blues', and 'I Wanna Be Your Skinny Lover'.

[Elgarian]

You, Sir, are one humorous fellow! I salute you (and your appendix, if you still have it.)

[Elgarian]

I thought you'd been unusually quiet of late. . .

There were times when I definitely wasn't. In fact I'm surprised you didn't hear me....
