Posted by: poundsaway on: January 4, 2007
They say that one of the most important things fat losers have to do is keep a food journal. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried only to fail after two weeks. I’m not very good with this whole tracking down your food intake thing. But well, I did discover that it was [...]
How Poppi did it
Posted by: poundsaway on: January 3, 2007

Getting to the gym – that’s the trick

I have a big, fat, expensive gym membership that I hardly use. I really regret joining that gym. Sure, it’s big, flashy and cool and walking distance from my parents’ home, but does that do me any good?
Problem is, by the time I get home from work it’s about 10pm and I’m tired as hell. [...]
Furtive dieter
