  • A Belated Look Back at 2023

    So far, 2024 has gotten off to a pretty good start for me, but I would like to take this opportunity to take one last look back at 2023, while it is fresh on my mind. For this post, I will look back on two key events: The death of my father in April, saying…

  • An Emphasis on Mental Health

    I have made significant progress on improving my health over the last several months. When I began, I was considered morbidly obese and had significant problems with my mental health. Since I decided to get on top of these problems, I have maintained my weight loss to this point, and have done a better job…

  • Time For A New Challenge

    First off, I have to admit that I have been away from the blog for the past few weeks as I have had to deal with some problems at home, namely dealing with the health of my 80 year old grandmother. Hopefully with the warmer weather on the horizon, she will start to feel better…

  • My Next Fitness Event

    The premise of the Columbus Blue Jackets Virtual 20K was to run 20 Kilometers (thats 12.43 miles) in the span of 20 days. Given my lack of experience in terms of running, I made the smart decision not to run all 20K in one shot. I started with my first run on January 11, running…

  • CBJ Virtual 20K Update

    If there is anything that I have learned about running in winter, is to be ready for anything, including the wildly unpredictable weather here in Columbus. To that end, thanks to my retail job, I now have enough cold weather gear to keep going, while getting rid of old, unused or gear that no longer…

  • Update on My Weight

    Back in November, I wrote a lengthy blog post about how I was having problems getting my weight under control. Since that time, I have made major strides in terms of getting my weight under control, to the point that I am very close to getting under 200 lbs. for the first time in a…
