Announcement Post – Day 1 – Previous Post – Next Post It’s now Day 3 and I’m still mentally recovering from writing the Canadian Securities Course yesterday. It was good in one way to plan the first Mary Killer Workout. But mentally I was off kilter for the session. The first full weight and tape measure measurements were done and put in the secret envelope that Mary will keep until the end. I received my…
Announcement Post – Day 1 – Previous Post – Next Post In honour of last night’s Supergirl/Flash crossover, in which it looked like Benoit and Gustin had a blast, I found this set photo which seemed to confirm it. I have now finished Day 1. I have the Canadian Securities Exam today so I have to rush. Today will be my first official session with Mary the trainer. Wish me luck on both. The official…
Announcement Post – Day 1 – Previous Post – Next Post After all this prep the time has come. Am I able to battle the cravings that are coming or will I simply fold? Given the amount of preparation, I’m not feeling like quitting before I start. I have a lot of frozen meat-and-vegetable meals in the freezer and I’m planning on pulling off this first week.

Mary put me through a cardio…

It was funny; I was really looking at this in a price-per-pound mentality. When I looked a chicken there were de-boned, skinless chicken breasts that were triple the price of chicken thighs. I could not image the chicken breasts for…
Announcement Post – Day 1 – Previous Post – Next Post I am off to Toronto to visit my mother who is in hospital. These kinds of things really throw a wrench in planning as this trip was unplanned. I am adding a superhero image to all postings for no real reason except I like them and they are part of the fitness theme for this 90-day journey. I have worked out a deal with…
De-Lardification and The Mutant Diet De-lardification not a real term, but I like it. This is my first blog post on a new diet/fitness regime I’m going to undertake late March 2016. I am going to try to break a long history of failed attempts. There have been 1,105 Mondays since Jan 1, 1995. This is my estimated number of failed attempts. The good news is that I’ve learned a lot about what works and…
