I want a new iPod, and I want to shed some pounds. Now, at first gloss you might think that these two desires are not related, but they are intertwined closer than the snakes on a caduceus.
You see, Apple and Nike have teamed up to create the Nike + iPod which is a doodad […]
One might think that the hardest part of my lifestyle changes would be the great Pepsi Ban. The first few days without Pepsi were rough, I’ll admit it, but now that they are behind me it has been smooth sailing. I really don’t crave Pepsi (though I still want it), so I think […]
I love eggplant. I can’t deny it (though I don’t know why it is called eggplant. Ahh, wikipedia knows.).
One of my favorite dishes to cook, and consume, is eggplant parmesan which unfortunately isn’t really diet friendly. Especially not when my usual prep includes frying the breaded eggplant slices in a vat of […]
Milk. Cow juice. The elixir o’ moo.
You love it. I love it. We all love it. Unless, of course, you’re a damn dirty lactose intolerant (I’ve had my say about you) but that’s quite besides the point.
I’m a whole milk kinda guy. I’ve had 2% and 1% and Skim […]
I was talking about the great ‘Scott Gets Fit’ journey with my friend Scott (no, I wasn’t talking to myself) and he asked me a very sensible question.
‘So how often are you going to check in on the old weight.’
I have given this some thought and I have decided on once a week. Why? […]
You don’t get as fat as I am without eating your fair share of delicious baked goods.
Cookies, cakes, donuts, creampuffs; I love ‘em all. Now that I am getting fit I can no longer have baked goods orgies (which are defined as baking a cake, cupcakes or something of the like, and […]
Beverages; they are the downfall of many dieters (I assume). Now, I despise diet sodas, but they are much better to drink since they have so few calories (thank you, Capt. Obvious). They also lack the one thing that makes me want to drink soda: good taste.
So, I cut out the soda (well, […]
Day 3 of the great Pepsi ban is over, only several thousand (I hope) to go.
I miss Pepsi. My doctor told me that diet soda is ok (not great, but at least isn’t as bad as the regular stuff) but I despise diet soda and so I would rather suffer without it. Now, […]
No that’s not my IQ, silly. That’s what I am tipping the scales at. Boy, I’m fat, huh? So, if I knock off 80 pounds that will bring me to 303, which would still seem like a lot to most folks but consider this: when I was but a wee freshmen in […]
I imagine the ladies like ‘em on a man, and so this is how to get them (though I think I have a long way to go before I have a six pack of anything).
