Intermittent

Well, Thurs-Sat I forgot to wear the bug. Sunday I wore it, but didn't log food. Mon-Tues I went to Houston and forgot to wear it. Lets kick myself in the ARSE and get going. Thanks Angel for sending me the note. I did wear it today and got 4 miles in walking. I did log my food as well. That post tomorrow, but here is Sundays exercise part.

On another note: Yesterday was the first time that I heard what they are doing on Biggest Loser.

Women: eat 1200 calories. Burn 6000 Calories

Men: eat _____calories. Burn 8000 Calories.

How many calories do the men eat?

Not doing too well. Drove back from Houston to find rain in Dallas.

Big Brother tonight

Good timing. I wore my bug today. I plan to keep it up through Christmas. Lets get going. Good to have Cube Monkey back in the plan. I'm psyched!

after Big Brother, I'm going for a walk.

The Summer killed me

Well, it has been a loooongg HOT summer. I think it is finally over. I'm putting the bug on tomorrow and hitting it hard. No excuses. No more vacations to interrupt me. No more heat to keep me indoors.
My slip has been several fold. First off, I've been growing my side business (Big Mikes Kites) and I have to say, I am very proud of my website and sales are progressing slowly but surely. Stop by my site and tell me what you think. Check out the different videos and products just for fun. If you think you want something, email me and I'll get you a good deal on something.

See you back here soon!

Day 182 - 185

Day 181

Drove back from Houston, then flew a kite. Not much excitement for the day.

Day 179 and 180

Missed Joey

In Houston and stopped by to see Joey. he was out. I had to settle for sitting in a clubman s in the showroom with some other GOOMER hanging around.

Day 176-178

Spent the weekend at the Flea Market selling Kites. Friday was slow as it was a weekday. Saturday rained all day hard and noone showed up and I sat there bored all day wondering what I got myself into. Sunday was nice and the crowd was packed. I was hopping all day long.

172-175

Day 170 and 171

Day 165-169

Several Things for the delay this week. I upgraded to IE8 on my computer, then nothing would upload. I finally got on a different computer to update my bodybugg, then uninstalled IE 8 and reinstalled Java on my computer and it is working now.

Also, My Kite inventory came in and I've been very busy getting things ready for next weekend. It will be my first weekend selling the kites. Crossing my fingers.

Day 64 - Backwards

Ate out every meal. Bah.

Day 162 and 163

Day 161

Three Days

Not in any order either. I apologize, I'm consumed setting up the Kite stuff. I got a booth at a local flea market and made my rather large order already. 2 weeks until I see if I can sell this stuff.

Day 156 and 157

Yesterday was a Kite Festival. I went out to have fun, and that I did. I handed out a bunch of business cards and sold a used kite (There was already a vendor assigned to the festival, so I tried to respect their arrangement) But all day activity made a good impact. Also it didn't leave me anytime for lunch, so a big deficit as well.

Friday was....so so. A couple of walks at work and some activity on my project later in the evening. I don't think I will do that again after dark as I was getting attacked by June Bugs attracted to the light.

Day 154 and 155

Day 153

Day 152

1.25 miles morning walk. 1.8 mile lunch walk, then a bunch of working on my 'project'. I got my goal.

Day 151 - Take THAT !!!

I learned a few things this week. NEVER say a Smilestone is imminent as it will Beat you up all week and DENY you the crossing. Also, I'm done playing softball as every time I do play, I end up hurt in some fashion and it keeps me from my routine for (in this case almost 2 weeks). I will support the team and be a base coach. On that Note, watch Rules of Engagement this Thursday. He sneezes then falls to the ground crying his back hurts. THIS IS TOTALLY OUR TEAM!!!!

Next, to solve the first problem. I TOOK CARE OF IT YESTERDAY!!! Below is Sunday's post and I went for the GOLD. I worked on my project most of the day, then hit the park for a 5 mile walk and some power kite flying! This is a new burned record for me! So here are some STATS from 150 Days of the BodyBugg

-36 Pounds
5234 - Most Calories burned One Day
2768 - Least Calories burned One Day
3653 - Average Calories burned One Day
1433 - Least Calories eaten One Day
3450 - Most Calories eaten One Day
2096 - Average Calories eaten One Day

1557 - Average Deficit One Day
66 pounds - What I should have lost according to 'science'

Oh well, progress is being made. So I got gipped 30 pounds. I will get there still.

Day 150

I went to a Kite Festival Saturday and there was wind and rain. Beyond that, I did not do much. I have to change that. I want to go back to my 3700 plus burn per day that I had when I started this endeavor with Cube Monkey. After this post, that will be my goal. 3700 or more per day. See how long I can go. Previously, I had to walk 6 miles to get that. So I have my mark.

Apologies

My apologies People. I have been working the past couple weeks trying to launch my new endeavor. BigMikesKites.com has an assortment of Stunt and Power Kites. I am still in the process of building the site and getting set up for my first sales. This will be an ongoing process for the next few weeks.
In the meantime, I am open for business and you can email me off the site with what you want and I will make you a special deal !!! Thus the reasons for my delayed posting lately.

147,148,149

Okay, So on Wednesday, I had a decent day and got a walk in early in the day, then 2 bouts of working on the 'Project' out back.

On Thursday, I drove to Houston and back. In the middle, I meddled at the datacenter and walked around the building there about 2 miles.

On Friday, I got one measely walk in.

Day 146

I got a 1.25 mile walk in at work in the morning, then 3.6 at soccer practice, then I had a softball game where I was more than happy to be just a base coach. The team suffered a pulled Quadricep on one fellow and 2 more pulled hamstrings....on the same guy!!! I feel like I dodged a bullet. Oh yeah, the Easter Bunny and my lack of exercise last week because of my pulled hamstring only gave me a .5 pound for the week loss. I'm going to make sure I run over the next rabbit that crosses in front of me.
