"Click Click Bloody Pancakes!" / Addictions

Wow, I'm a total jerk! I said I was going to post my results on Friday from my weigh in and... four day later... nada. And there you are... hitting the refresh button over and over again, waiting, just WAITING to hear: "How much does Dan weigh now?!" And now... all of my followers, ALL SEVEN, will hear. Now go forth and spread the news!

Wow... I can really go on a rant... and I'll continue!

There is a reason I weighed in on Friday. Friday, was a HUGE cheat day. 'Twas the Fat Kid Tribute Day. A day where buddies hang out drinking beer, eating Chinese food and playing video games. It was glorious. We also saw the movie TRON Legacy in 3D, and I must say Jeff Bridges is quickly becoming one of my top favorite people... and I really want to see True Grit. And what was my beer of choice on this momentous cheat day? Blue Moon... oh yeah, I'm a fan.

(Have they noticed yet I'm saving the weigh in for later?)


After a day of debauchery and shooting bad guys on TV, Nicole and I took Bellerina down to the cape for the weekend for some quiet family time. It was nice to get away and spend some isolated time. And on Monday morning, Nicole made possibly the most amazing pancakes I ever had. They were pancakes with some apple compote (which is basically warm apples with cinnamony goodness) with walnuts topped with some brie cheese. Before you say anything, you must try them first, then comment below and tell me how your face melted from exposing yourself to the food of the gods. Like Prometheus bringing fire to man, Guy Fieri from Diners, Drive-ins and Dives on the Food Network made us aware of a small restaurant makes these pancakes. And I'll never eat another kind of pancake. AND not that bad for you either as long as you portion it out right. This IS a blog about losing weight after all.

Here guys, you're going to need something cook those pancakes with... oh shit, Zeus is watching.

(Why do I think I'm clever to leave the weigh in part till the end since everyone can see it on the left bar anyway??)


Second I want to talk about my addiction. I have an addiction to video games. And I'll be short about this one cause I'm still not entirely certain it's an addiction. It just keeps me up at night, but it doesn't like... keep from going to work or watching Annabelle play or anything. I do it after Belle and Nicole go to bed and I have a little me time. And... some times... I stay up until about 1:30 in the morning playing. It's not like I'm going to stop playing them all together cause that's just dumb, but I do need to get more sleep to help me with this whole losing weight thing.


Anyways, I'm signing off for the night... good night.


Oh yeah, I weighed in Friday morning and lost another four pounds exactly. So last weigh in was a total of 194.4. I know, I know, I'm sorry. I'll try to slow it down and drag this out for the rest of the year and dramatize the whole thing.


OK, I'm falling asleep (since I stayed up late last night). To those of you not following yet... don't be afraid... I won't hurt you.
