Tubby Lumpkins

Ode to Mr Chunkers:

Mr Chunkers you are a cat
Mr Chunkers you are quite fat
Mr Chunkers has pudgy feet
Mr Chunkers lives to eat

A fat cat he may be,
but a cat full of personality is what we see,
His soft round belly has been there for a while,
but we won't hold it against him because he makes us smile.


And on that note the weights for this week.

Kim:    141.2
Jen:      130.2
Darin   166.0

We're back!

And we return to our weight loss competition that continued through our vacation even if we did not weigh in.  Kimberly and I seemed to survive relatively unscathed as I managed to weigh in only 4 tenths higher than i did at our weigh in two weeks ago.  Kim bounced back up to 142.2 as she continues to yo-yo between 141 and 142 so the vacation did not seem to have any ill effects on her weight either.  This was a vacation filled with lots of lobster and butter and soups comprised entirely of cream so I am quite pleased with where we currently are.  Jen forget to weigh in today so I'll be updating the blog tomorrow with her numbers.  We are drawing very close to our mid-competition reward as that weigh in takes place on june 8th the day before Jen leaves for what will certainly be a food indulgent cruise.  I also ran 3 miles in less than 30 minutes yesterday which probably hasn't occured since highschool, averaging less than 10 minutes per mile.  Maybe for motivation I should have Kimbo post her running times on here as encouragement.  If you think we should post our running times as well please leave a comment saying so.



1 point us, no points lobster stew

Last Weigh in before Vacation

Today was our final weigh before Kim and I go on our trip to Boston and effectively negate about 1 month of dieting in about 4 days.  Darin continued his weight loss with another 1.4lbs lost while Kim was able to lose the .6lbs she gained last week to break even.  Jen had a small gain this week but it was probably a victory considering on Saturday she ate fried chicken, fries, applepies, and nearly also bought soup, cupcakes, and a chocolate peanut butter cake.  I fully expect this vacation to set me back about 3 weeks but we'll have to see.  i'm planning to have a lobster roll a day and i plan to enjoy it and then get back on the weight loss wagon when we get back.

Jen - 128
kim - 141.2
Darin  - 167.4
