The yo-yo continues to yo, and then yo again. Now I’m down about two pounds and again on course for breaking the 170 barrier? But will it happen? The last time I got close I suddenly gained a bunch of mystery weight. I’m not holding my breath that it will happen soon. If for no [...]

Day Nineteen: Tragedies
I gnash my teeth in lamentation. It appears we are in the midst of an plumping trend. Perhaps yesterday’s debauchery is catching up with me. I may need to step up my efforts this week.
For what it’s worth, the Wii Fit age is down. I was slightly better at standing perfectly still today than I have [...]
Day Seventeen: She Stoops to Conquer
After a couple of days of curious embiggening, things have finally taken a downturn. I was alarmed by the sudden hump, but pleased to see that overall my weight is down about a pound from last week. I suppose the downside of weighing yourself everyday is that you have a tendency to to overreact to [...]
Day Sixteen: Muffled Footfalls
Curses and double curses, I forgot to take a picture of my weight change since last time. The balance board never forgets, but she never lets you go back and fix your mistakes either. You have to live with what you’ve done – forever. So I’ll need to use the graph to illustrate that I’ve [...]
Day Fourteen: Lunge-a-palooza
Gadzooks! Could at be that I’m not far from breaking into the 160’s? Whenever there’s such a major change from day to day I’m always inclined to think that it’s just a fluke. But here on the cusp of something that feels like a milestone, I want to believe.
No such luck with the Wii Fit Age. [...]
Day Thirteen: Unlucky Legs and the Urban Juror
The weight’s up by less than half a pound. I’ve alerted the media.
The Wii Fit Age has let me maintain the illusion that I’m still in my twenties for just a little bit longer. The ennui is terrific.
Today commemorates the thirteenth workout of the project. An auspicious anniversary! Is it full of portents and omens?
I [...]
Day Eleven: Curse of the Temptress
Yesterday’s slight bump up in weight is followed by a slightly larger dip down today. I’ll take that.
More than 10 years difference in today’s Wii Fit age. I assume this has nothing to do with the weight loss and everything to do with the fact that I did slightly better on an agility game.
The EA [...]
Day Ten: The Lost Workout
My weight bounced up by a little less than a pound. It wasn’t significant enough to warrant a rebuke from the balance board. Despite the slight increase, it’s still lower than it was a couple of days ago.
The Wii Fit Age on the other hand has skyrocketed up to 37. I attribute this mostly to [...]
Day Eight: Leaping Lizards and Lugubrious Legs
A wise man once said no g-news is good g-news, unless it’s gary gnus. In keeping with that gentle spirit, there is no news to report on the weight front. Since it’s the exact same as yesterday, I feel like the balance board should reward me. It’s usually so pleased when things remain perfectly still.
Despite [...]
Day Seven: Jumping Jehosaphat
Today the weight is up by a little over a pound. Overall it’s down from this time last week.
Wii Fit Age is matching up with my real age. I have no idea why. Maybe the balance board picks the age out of a bingo tumbler.
Today’s EA Sports Active workout introduced side to side jumps. Now, [...]
