First day back; An okay start, but calorically a failure.
It was good to get a walk in, but I over did it on the food. Let's see if tomorrow is better.
Today's insight: Rolls have way more calories than vegetables.
Caloric Information:
Net Calories: +1065
Normal Daily Calorie Intake: 4100 (at the beginning of this process)
Daily Calorie Intake Goal: 2500 (+1065 calories)

Big to Buff is back baby!
After an extended absence, this blog is coming back to life.
Today started with some treadmill time. While I feel guilty about not partaking in the gorgeous weather we having been having, it gives me time to watch some stuff on Netflix that doesn't fit into my schedule anywhere else.
On a side note, if you haven't seen Orange is the New Black, you are missing out. Laura Prepron, Donna from That 70's Show, is a incarcerated lesbian drug kingpin. Apparently, the show was based on a book. Jason Biggs makes some apperances as the lead charaters fiance.
Anyway, a more active lifestyle is still the goal. This blog will continue to document the transition to (and possible failure) a more buff dude. Stay tuned to find out which.
This run at the goal is a more social attempt. Chelsea, as well as members of the Dinner Table Assassins, the name Daniel, Dusty, Denny, and I gave ourselves awhile back when we realized buffet managers peed thier pants when they saw us coming, are agreed to do several 5Ks in the coming months.
I have ressurected my goal to do at least one 5k a month for a year. A goal I came close to fulfilling once before, but missed it by a couple months.
Let's see how it goes. Check back tomorrow to see if I met my calorie goal for the day. Also, if you are interested in joining me, Chelsea, or various members of the Dinner Table Assassins in doing any of the 5K's, please see the Activity Calendar as it includes links to the sign up for each walk.

Resurrecting this Weight Loss Blog. Reboot take 2
I am writing this starting back where I began 7 months ago. Still weighing in at 350lbs, still angry my pants are tight. Any traction garnered previously, has been lost.
However, I still have a frequently unused gym membership to the Y. This week the pool is back open after a long maintenance period, so Monday may be my first day back at the gym.
Other new events are that I am part of the Wellness Committee at work. We recently hosted our first wellness fair to a good reception. I find it funny that I am on a committee to inspire others to live healthier. However, I realize that being on that committee means I should set an example. So I plan to. I have found multiple 5K’s to sign up for and have booked the first 3 with Chelsea and several other friends. Since they are paid for, I now HAVE to do them. We also have a walking competition set to start when work resumes on Monday. While I can’t win a prize as part of the committee I strive to set a good example.
I, again, will get back on the health wagon tomorrow. I have some cabbage and eggs to boil up today.
