I post ~10-20 times a day. Follow me, I won't take up too much of your feed.

I am 40 or 50 years old.
I normally just post my current weight loss progress on Fridays and in a specific thread but today is special, it's 50 days since I started.

I've lost 27.5 pounds in the last 50 days, .55 pounds a day.

I have a calorie budget per day, a step goal, closed kitchen 7pm-7am, and tai chi twice a week.

This week's results, 2.5 more pounds down. Though that's with less calories and more physical activity than the previous week where I lost 4 so who knows how any of this works

My daily steps now averages over 10,000!

On Halloween 2006 I dressed as my new favorite DC character at the time, The Question

I did not have anything remotely the right color so I made due and tried to make the outfit at least a little visually striking

My wife took me to an awesome concert last weekend with Devo, Lene Lovich, and the B-52s.

Somebody once told you
That you could defeat Goku
You are the greatest Saiyan again

You were looking kind of strong

This week's results. Some plateauing which doesn't feel good, but last week had an abnormal drop on the last measurement, if I normalize that it's steady progress. Could not walk as much this week due to business at work. Think I am down one pant size from a 44 to a 42.

Pokemon Legends ZA feels pretty nice to play. It's very low stakes and not nearly as tedious as Arceus. I think a lot of that may be due to the very light jazz ensemble soundtrack. Spent an hour yesterday just going around picking up sidequests and finding treasure.
How the heck do you evolve Pichu?

This week's results. I will have been doing this a month Tuesday so I'll probably post that as well.

Onwards and downwards.

I'm doing calorie counting, no desserts, active walking every day, and now started Tai Chi twice a week.

Was watching the new Simpsons and a background detail was some portraits of Milhouse's grandparents? Have we ever seen them before?
