Fit After 65: The Road To 230

Maybe not thinking so much about my weight—or constantly analyzing everything I eat—is actually the way to go. Today’s Sunday weigh-in came in at 269.8 pounds, down from 271.2 pounds last week. I’ll take it! It’s another small step, but it’s a step in the right direction. And after the last few weeks, seeing a number beginning with […]

My Sunday weigh-in came in at 271.2 pounds, down from 272.7 pounds the previous week. That’s a loss of 1.5 pounds, and I’ll take it. If I’m being truthful, I didn’t spend much time thinking about weight loss this past week. I didn’t carefully plan my meals, and I didn’t follow a structured workout schedule. August and fall

The first week of fall camp for college football can be hectic! Suddenly everything changes. There are new schedules, longer days, more time on my feet, different meal times, and changes to my normal sleep schedule. Looking back, it was probably unrealistic for me to think I would roll into fall camp and continue my

It’s August, and that means I have five months to reach my goal of weighing 240 pounds by the end of the year. I didn’t do my regular Sunday weigh-in last week because I was away on my final summer getaway—a weekend at a lake cabin with some of my college friends. It was exactly what I needed. The

I’m hopeful that I’m getting back on track. This morning’s weigh-in came in at 270.7 pounds, down from 273.8 pounds last week. While I’m still not where I want to be, seeing the scale move in the right direction is encouraging. It’s a reminder that a few focused days of making better choices can make a real difference.

Well…this wasn’t the weigh-in I was expecting. Last Sunday, July 5, I weighed 268.5 pounds. This past week I spent a couple of days out in the Badlands of North Dakota. Knowing how much walking and hiking I would be doing, I figured I would at least maintain my weight, if not lose a little.

While the weight isn’t coming off as fast as I might like, it is moving in the right direction, and that’s what matters most. On Wednesday, July 1, I weighed in at 269.8 pounds. Getting back on track with my regular Sunday weigh-ins, I stepped on the scale this morning, Sunday, July 5, and I

I had a great week over in Chaska, Minnesota, volunteering at the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship! It was an incredible experience working inside the ropes and getting to watch some of the best women’s golfers in the world up close. Being around that level of talent and dedication is always inspiring. I also did a

It’s funny how some weeks you go into weigh-in convinced the scale is going to be up, only to find out it isn’t. That was the case for me this week. When I stepped on the scale this morning, I weighed 270.1 pounds. That puts me right back where I was two weeks ago and

This morning’s weigh-in was a reminder that I need to stay focused on my diet. The scale read 270.5 pounds, a slight increase from last week. While the gain isn’t significant, it’s moving in the wrong direction. If I had been hitting my target pace, I would be around 267 pounds right now. The reality is simple: I’ve
