Smurfity Smurf Smurf

Well this morning I weighed in at 273.  Down 4 pounds from last week.   Not bad for not really doing too much beyond avoiding blantly terrible food.  Baby steps.

The family went out to see The Smurf movie tonight (not in 3D thankfully).  My offical review is MEH.  It was okay.  As far as kid movies go it was watchable but not great (great being Megamind or How To Train Your Dragon etc).  Hank Azaria as Gargamel was the saving grace. SPOILER ALERT: he gets tasered and hit by a bus.  It doesn’t take a lot to entertain this family.

The thing that upset me the most was the preview for the upcoming Alvin and Chipmunks movie.  What happened to Jason Lee?  He went from one of my favourite actors, staring in the early Kevin Smith movies, then became a Scientologist and now this.  What a waste.

New House, New Person

Hello legion of internet followers.  I have something to tell you that I have been avoiding for a while, so I am going to just come out and say it.  Over the last year I haven’t been good nor exhibited anything that could be considered self control.  This morning I weighed in at 277lbs.  So to summerize, over the last 2 years I managed to lose 60lbs in one year and then turn around and put on 75lbs in the following year.  Lets all agree not to tell Chris and Tanya.

It was a tough, hectic year and I am weak.  Anything else I say here would just be an excuse.  But I am putting that behind me and going to work on being a better person with better habbits.  Hopefully these conversations we have through this blog will keep me honest.

I am now well into the new job, the family has moved into the new house and life is slowly rolling back into ‘normal’.  Immediately I will be getting the eating under control.  Then I need to figure out something to do exercise wise.  I don’t have the luxury of a gym at the office anymore.  Getting back to running seems like the best call, just for easy of access more then anything. 

Wish me the best.  It seems I need it.
