“Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure that you are not, in fact, just surrounded by assholes.” William Gibson’s quote above has been one of my favorites regarding depression. Using the quote as a gauge I can definitely say I was depressed last week because I was not surrounded by […]

What the Hell?
Last week I was so proud of myself. I ate healthier than normal. I ate smaller portions than normal. I did a lot of outdoor walking as well as using the treadmill and elliptical at school. I was really sticking to the Weight Watchers plan. I weighed in today at 214.6 which means I gained […]
How is Bradley Physically Part II
Yesterday I explained how I gained weight to 305 lbs. Now it’s time for the rest of the story…how I lost it. I finally got smart and worked the Weight Watchers program-a little bit. It took me awhile, but I started losing a pound here and there and got down to 285 lbs. Despite all […]
How is Bradley – Physically?
I updated how things have been going for me mentally. Now it’s time to catch you up on how things are going physically. In the beginning, on the second post I made on this blog, I whined about weighing 293 pounds. Now that’s a lot for a guy who’s only 5’5″ tall. Well, quite a […]
Melting Away
Great news when I got weighed at Weight Watchers this moring. Since last week I lost over 3 pounds for a grand total of 35 pounds. It’s been a good day.
Well, I’m Trying to Keep my Promise
In my recent post I stated I was going to post something every day in hopes that my old blogging skills will revive. Unfortunately I haven’t stayed true to that promise I made myself. Things aren’t really going that bad for me, I just have lost my blogging mojo. I swore a couple of times […]
Depression is Back Again.
Meh, pretty much describes my day today. My pdoc and I have found a pretty good drug coctail that helps keep me in balance. You’d think that I would have learned by now is that being on the meds doesn’t mean I’ll never be depressed or manic again. The days that I seem perfectly balanced […]
Weight Watchers….Back Again
I took a big step last year. Actually a giant step. I joined Weight Watchers. I was excited. I knew I was going to be the perfect little weight watcher you ever did see. I just new that I would be able to get down to at lease 200 lbs by the years end. I was going […]
Gastric Bypass Surgery
Well, the decison has been made — I’m not going to have the surgery(for now). Those damn things are expensive. The entire process takes about 6 months, but they nickle and dime you all along the way. I was naive to think that all the prep work that has to be done would be totaled […]
OMG, My Weight. I must hang my head shame
I joined weight watchers several months ago, Friends kept telling me that it’s a great program. Yeah, Weight Watchers is the one that you have to track the number of points in a day. I thought, “this will be easy. I’m happy I can eat whatever I want, I just have to measure the ingredients […]
