R1P1D1 – In the beginning…

Today’s Weight: 290.0 Loading Day 1. Dosage 166.6 iu. (.30 CC of a 4cc mix of 2000iu) I’m totally stealing Stacey’s format. Yoink. I woke up with a headache. A head splitting “I’m going to die” migraine type headache coupled with scratchy, itchy eyes. I thought about not starting the injections but decided I was being a wuss. I got…

CrazyStupid Diet Day 0 take two

Last night while chatting with the fiance about the CrazyStupid Diet he expressed a lot of concern about injections (and when I say a “lot of concern” I’m really understating it). So slight change of plans. On Saturday a friend of ours who is a surgeon is going to come by and show me exactly how to do the injections…

Tomorrow morning I’ll take my first injection. I would have done it this morning but I had to go to the hospital for a blood test (unrelated) and it seemed best…

Granted its the same evolving project that I’ve worked on for the last few years.. but it’s complex DOM manipulating javascript.. and I think I’m actually starting to understand what I’m doing (instead of doing it and poking the DOM to see if ti works). It’s…

Five Things, My So Called Life

Friday Five

1. Work/Programming Is it bad that I still really like my job? I mean it’s not like I’m saying “No, don’t give me time off for the Holiday”.. but all things considered.. it’s not a bad thing to go back to after the holiday. My last day of work was 12/20. I won’t be back in the office until 1/3.…

Our Story So Far

This is that post. You know the one. The one where the blogger comes back and sheepishly admit that they haven’t blogged for a while and then fervently promises to do better. Yeah.. that one. Anyway. It’s September, nearly October and my year in weight loss is not going as smoothly as I’d like. I haven’t ballooned up to 400…

May Goals and Progress

2011 Goals: Sew one new thing a month – I’ve totally rebounded after last month’s stunning failure at this goal. This month I completed a multitude of projects. I finished a rust-brown hood for me, I finally put the finishing touches on F’s new olive green fighting tunic. I finished off Her Highness of the Mists Purple tunic, my green…
