Finally I can fucking post an update! 4 weeks has past and I finally lost 1 pound. Ugh that was not easy… I don’t like this plateau bullshit. It better start dripping off right now… can you imagine that? If it actually dripped off. Blah!

So I went on a 34-mile bike ride this weekend, and it was so much fun. I feel like I am now prepared to bike to Samuel P. Taylor park when we go camping in a couple weeks. I took some pictures on the way to show everyone.

So I haven’t posted one of these in a while so let’s catch up on what has been going on. About two weeks ago I lost another pound to make my total weight loss 31 pounds, but then after 4th of July weekend I gained the pound back… Boooooooo! This week though I lost 2 pounds, so my total weight loss now is 32 pounds. A good rebound!

I also went on my first bike trip across the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito. The ride back almost killed me but I made it, and I didn’t walk or stop to rest so I think I did a good job. Considering the shape I was in 6 months ago I think I’m doing pretty good.

How is everyone else doing? Benutty? Gary Jr? FrankieRose? Shawnito? Jay?

Question of the Week 04/17 – 04/23

Nick — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 01:19:42 +0000

This week’s question was asked by Hugh Gadick of Den Haag, Netherlands:

Write a 50 word personals ad for each member of the Haus of Honies to appear in your local newspaper.

Gary Jr.:

Stinky stinky stinky…hefty hefty hefty! Big hefty man here with no stinky hole. Looking for farm boys to milk my utters. I moo with excitement at skinny curly haired boys with little to no body hair. Do you like metal detectors?… Just think of the wonders you could find cleaning out my belly flap.

Benutty:

“Only you can prevent forest fires” Maybe you have heard that before. That’s me during my day job. If you like flabby bears who store food in their nappy beards then I’m the man for you. I drool at any chance to ride a dark man who is more greasy than me… buyer beware… I grow dingleberries year round.

Jay:

What do I want?…Sex. When do I want it?… Now! I want sex 24 hours a day 7 days a week, and right when you decide to take a break because you can’t stand to do it any longer…. I’ll turn around and talk shit about you and how you don’t ever have sex with me. Don’t worry though I’d never hire a scab to replace you… I’m pro union like that.

Alfie:

Hey man… I like girls (or do I?)… I like biking, yoga, and being sexually ambiguous to confuse everyone. I’m looking for mousy looking people who like to do it dirty like me. I kind of wish life was like a musical, and everyone around me would bust into song and dance on a whim like those kids on Glee.

Later this week I’ll give personals for Misha, Shawnito, and Kitty.

This last week was not my best week, but I am glad I at least lost 2 pounds. Saturday I got a little out of control with champes and cookies, but they were damn good! Oh and those little bitches selling their girl scout cookies all over the place are not helping me one bit.

I’ll be riding my bike to work all week since it is finally nice. I need to work these legs before I get troll thunder thighs. That’s right, I said it.

Oh yea.. You know how when you wash your jeans they always seem to shrink, and you can’t fit in them as easily as you did before? Well this morning…for the first time in a long time…mine were easy to put on. What!! Can I get a amen up in here?

Mama say what?! I did a really good job this week of not going over my calorie limit, and I did some light exercise (biking, and walking). By some miracle I seem to have lost 5 pounds since last week. I don’t know where those 5 pounds were, but I hope they don’t come back. In all seriousness though, I am glad to see this outcome because I really had to restrain myself all week not to eat everything that I wanted. It’s nice to get rewarded for that. I’m also glad I had enough calories left over yesterday to enjoy Gary Jr.’s world famous pulled pork sandwiches. They were mighty delicious.
