Philip - Day 64

12:47 - 1 slice of peanut butter toast and mint tea

So, did I mention that I've been somewhat sickly all week? No? Shit. So, on top of whatever stomach flu-ish thing I've had, all that alchohol was just a terrible decision. I lumbered over to the basement bathroom and promptly regurgitated the pizza, replete with mostly undigested pineapple chunks. Bleh. Needless to say, we spent the morning in bed. Until about 10:30. That's the latest I've slept in for a long time, and I know Kaitlin hasn't slept in in forever. Had we both not been feeling sickly, it would've been enjoyed more, I'm certain.

When I start to perk up a little, I think we're going to run some errands, and then probably do a soup and sandwich lunch. The plan is for a breakfast dinner, which is the best kind of dinner. I think we're just gonna take it easy and do laundry all day. Maybe watch a few movies. The 10th Kingdom, maybe?

21:02 - 1 slice of pizza, 1 Gatorade, and a lot of Ritz crackers

Braving the storm, we set out to obtain sustenance that wouldn't be instantly returned. Lots of Gatorade, Sprite, crackers, and popcorn. We watched the last four episodes of Buffy's first season, and while they weren't life-altering by any stretch of the imagination, they were entertaining. We didn't really accomplish anything we set out to do today, but I felt like crap, Kait's exhausted, the weather sucked, and we took all those as decent excuses. Tomorrow will be a different story.

Philip - Day 63

9:24 - 4 lemon creme cookies and 1 glass of milk

Black Snake Moan's first five minutes have impressed me so far.

13:05 - 3 soft tacos and 2 burritos



21:04 - 3 slices of pizza

Not enough left to last another two weeks. Hmm, ...

23:23 - 4 shots of Wild Turkey and 1 beer

... or 2? I don't remember. I think it's been 2. There's gonna be more. God in Heaven, there wil be more!

--:-- - 4 more shots of Wild Turkey

Philip - Day 62

9:34 - 1 bowl of Frosted Flakes

13:07 - 1 Arby's melt, 1/2 curly fries, 1 potato cake, 1/2 a Dr. Pepper

18:00 - 2 taquitos, 4 soft tacos, 2 burritos, 1 Pepsi, 2 Grolsch, and 1 Long Hammer

Philip - Day 61

23:08 - Chicken strips and fries, 1 small chocolate mocha milkshake, 2 lemon creme cookies, and 2 Grolsch Amber Ale

I really didn't eat much today, I guess.

Breakfast: cheerios

Lunch: 6" long turkey sandwich and green tea

Dinner: not sure yet

Philip - Day 60

--:-- - 1 Slimfast

14:36 - 1 grilled turkey burger with cheese and dijon mustard and 1 Propel

Two months. I've been recording this weight thing for two months. I don't think I have much to show for it. Blah. I have about two weeks to make some significant progress. I think Kait and I are going to take before and after trip photos to see if we lose any weight.

18:23 - 1 grilled turkey burger with honey bbq sauce, 1 mexican cheese sandwich, and 1/2 a bag of severely burnt popcorn

21:32 - 1 bowl of "frossed frakes"

Lauren - Day 59

Lauren - Day 58

Breakfast: left over beef enchiladas

Dinner: who knows. Probably chicken or Winsteads.

Philip - Day 58

--:-- - 1 Slimfast

13:55 - 1 grilled corned beef and farmer's cheese sandwich with honey bbq sauce and 1 green tea

22:55 - 3 pork chops, french onion soup, corn, mashed potatoes, 2 Propel, and 1 raspberry peanut butter cup concrete from Culver's

Dinner was, ... gross. It wasn't Kaitlin's fault. We went to the nature center with our packs totally full and walked 3 miles. It was an intense workout, but we left the stupid crockpot going. Now, ... I want to get this stuff out of my system and eat something that doesn't taste so, ... soapy.

Lauren - Day 57

Lunch: beef enchilada and beans from Jalapeños

I also had a peach tea from Quick Trip. I didn't eat much yesterday did I?

Philip - Day 57

--:-- - 1 Slimfast

14:06 - Leftover chicken alfredo in garlic sauce, breadsticks, and 1 Propel

I packed most of my bag for the trip last night. Got everything together, anyways. It's not much, but I think I'll have everything I need.

21:15 - 2 Leftover enchiladas and 1 green tea

20 bicep lifts, 20 tricep lifts, 10 side dumbell lifts, 10 front dumbell lifts, 10 dumbell curls, 40 benches, and 25 crunches.

Lauren - Day 56

Breakfast: cheerios and coffee

Lunch: a pizza hot pocket (not very good)

Dinner: half a hamburger patty and a chicken pita from Pita Pit

Philip - Day 56

6:31 - 1 Slimfast

Man, ... Luckily, I have just the cure for hangovers.

13:38 - 1 grilled corned beef and farmer's cheese sandwich with honey bbq sauce, 1/2 bag of wheat and gluten-free "cheese curls", and 1 Propel

These health food store Cheetos are really good. Seriously good. Also, ...


14:03 - 1 english muffin with strawberry cream cheese and butter

Mmm, ... Tasty.

23:39 - Chicken alfredo in garlic sauce, breadsticks, salad, and Dr. Pepper

So, it wasn't much of a date, but it was nice to eat out. Even if it was just at Olive Garden.

20 bicep lifts, 20 tricep lifts, 10 side dumbell lifts, 10 front dumbell lifts, 10 dumbell curls. I was TIRED. But my arms felt really good afterwards.

Lauren - Day 55

Breakfast- coffee, Cheerios and orange juice

Lunch- salad, again

Dinner- three hot dogs and some pita bread (I was SOOO hungry)

I'm on book number three of the Stephanie Plum series. Wich, as of right now, has 12 books. It's sooo funny and such a chick book and I love it! Morelli or Ranger? That is the question.

Philip - Day 55

6:48 - 1 Slimfast

11:33 - 1 grilled corned beef and farmer's cheese sandwich with honey bbq sauce and 1 Propel

19:17 - 1 chicken grilled stuff burrito and 7 beers and counting

20 bicep and 20 tricep lifts at 40 lbs. 10 front dumbell lifts and 10 side dumbell lifts at 15 lbs. I am gonna get plastered. Dinner is cooking and I've got, ... 17 more Coors Light to finish. I'm not saying I'm gonna finish every one, ... but I might. And then I'll shop for beer during the hangover with my iPod blasting Eagles of Death Metal as I walk through the grocery store. Sounds good to me.

21:39 - 11th beer

I'm a bit drunk. Yeah, ... Ant Bully is incredibly boring, even with all the celebrity voices and colorful animation. The only ones worth really mentioning are Bruce Campbell and Nicholas Cage. I guess it's important that the kid who plays Lucas plays Aang on Avatar. But, mostly it's a big waste of time. Kait's asleep and I'm drunk, ... what is this, two, three weeks? Whenever the last time I mentioned it. Too long.

Lauren - Day 54

Breakfast: orange juice and coffee (...I think)

Lunch: salad

Dinner: cheerios, a few bites of pasta, and some reduced fat cheese-its

I'm at 190 lbs. That's poop!!! My goal is 160. I'm going to buy a scale this weekend and a work out video. Harumph!

Philip - Day 54

11:48 - 1 Slimfast

15:09 - 2 grilled turkey and bleu cheese sandwiches with thai peanut sauce and 2 glasses of white grape raspberry juice

17:54 - 1 Slimfast bar

I started lifting again today. I haven't done anything else, but my arms are sore. It's been awhile since I'd even thought about doing anything. 20 bicep and 20 tricep lifts at 40 lbs.

21:13 - 2 chicken enchiladas with mexican rice and 1/2 a kiwi strawberry soda

Wandering through the grocery aisles, I had to try it. Plus, the can was shiny.

Lifted again. 20 bicep and 20 tricep lifts at 40 lbs.

Lauren - Day 53

Breakfast: a piece of pizza and a half a mug of coffee

Lunch: a random salad

Snack: a few chips

Dinner: my left over salmon and broccoli

Philip - Day 53

8:53 - 1 Slimfast

13:25 - 1 Sesame chicken LC, 1 grilled turkey and swiss sandwich, 2 peanut butter cookies, 1 glass of apple juice, and 1 glass of milk

Hungry. Hungry. Hippo.

17:02 - 2 bowls of ice cream

You have no idea. Seriously. It was crazy, ...

19:13 - 4 buttermilk pancakes, scrambled eggs with cheese, 4 sausage patties, and 2 Oberons

Started watching the first season of Buffy. We're halfway through the second episode, and it's alright so far. We also have the 4th disc of Ah! My Goddess!. Pretty good stuff. Kait doesn't like it as much as Fruits Basket, and I have to agree, but still, it's decent when there are so many crap anime out there. I didn't even finish the last series I watched and I had gotten to the 11 episode of 12. I couldn't bear to waste 22 more minutes on it. So, ... yeah.

Lauren - Day 52

Breakfast: rasin bran with skim milk and orange juice

Lunch: a salad with a bunch of stuff in it

Dinner: a cappuccino blast

I tried to read A Clockwork Orange today. That did not work out well. I'd have to look up every other work with a British slang dictionary and that does not sound like a fun read. Instead a read the first few chapters of Tomcat in Love. Really good so far. Like most Tim O'Brien books. He has such a cynical view of romantic relationships. He must have been left by someone while he was over seas. At least, that's what most of his books allude to. Anyway, at the moment I'm reading: Tomcat in Love, Two for the Dough and The Ultimate Hitchhikers Guide. Off to read!

Philip - Day 52

11:13 - 1 Slimfast

12:38 - Corn chips and 1 Propel

20:08 - 2 turkey burgers and 1 beer

Six Days, Seven Nights is not an awful movie.

Lauren - Day 51

Breakfast: two pieces of pizza and some orange juice

Lunch: Americone Dream Ice Cream (delish!)

Dinner: salmon and broccoli and bread sticks from Olive Garden

I've been bad about posting on here. I got a little down and out about my weight for a while and didn't feel like looking at what I have been consuming for the past few days. I'm better now and plan on posting more frequently.

Joan's in town. This may turn out really bad but I'm hoping that it'll be fine. My whole "I'm older then her and therefor must be better then her" thing has died down a lot in the past few years so I don't feel the need to fight with her over everything any more just so I can win. All though, she turns everything into a battle of wits so...Wish me luck!

Philip - Day 51

9:00 - 1 bowl of Frosted Flakes

Well, FDIL JR is gone back to Marquette. Out of my house, at least. There was an awkward handshake/hug, and then he and Kait went off to church, while I stay right where I am in my chair. I've got to finish the Comic Book Project storyline as best as I can, but other than that, my day is totally open. It's nice to have the house to myself for once. I don't consider myself a hermit by nature, but I do like my solitude. Yet another quirk I've inherited from my late grandfather.

14:07 - 4 buffalo wings, a handfull of fries, a handful of Doritos, and 1/2 a Nesquick chocolate milkshake

I destroyed the roof of my mouth the other day, and now eating anything takes a lot of self-control. If I'm not careful, I scrape the pallet and get a refreshing jolt of searing pain, instant headache, and tears come to my eyes. Fun stuff.

19:28 - 2 grilled ham and swiss sandwiches, a handful of Junior Mints, and an Oberon

So much smoke.

Philip - Day 50

13:18 - 2 slices of pizza and 1 glass of apple juice

22:50 - 10 Hawaiian buffalo wings, 1/2 a Dr. Pepper, and a few handfuls of buttery popcorn

Disgustingly buttery. Which is why I had to scoop a few pieces at a time from the rim of the tub. Even the container for the popcorn conveys a sense of gluttonous self-gratification. Tub.

But, even though the snackables were of mediocre quality, I am glad to say that Pixar, after the not-so-impressive Cars, has totally redeemed itself with Ratatouille. Brad Bird and Michael Giachinno are allowed to co-write/direct and score any of my movies they want to, respectively. If it weren't for the "must be a movie that has already been reviewed on the site" stipulation, I would be able to gush about it for a nearly indefinite amount of time for my MRFH application. Nevertheless, I will definitely be seeing it again, despite the unbearable television commercials that provide a pronunciation guide for the eternally clueless.

"Little Chef", heh.

Philip - Day 49

9:44 - 1 piece of lemon cake, 1 glass of milk, and 1 Propel

Currently sitting in my car, which is sitting in the garage. TriPatch has a groomer's appointment to get all the ticks and gunk out of his fur at 11, so I'm dog-proofing my front seat. The little puker. And, of course, since no who would care is around, I'm taking the opportunity to fill my car with smoke.

15:12 - 1 chicken melt, 1/2 of a cookies and cream milkshake, and 1 Slimfast bar

20:22 - 3 slices of homemade bbq chicken pizza and 1 Nesquick strawberry milk

21:37 - 1 slice of pizza and a beer

Philip - Day 48

8:37 - 1 Slimfast

So, ... JR is here. I guess things are okay so far, but we're definitely not on the same level as when he left nearly a year ago. I've gotten a lot closer to Kait's mom and John, while he's been living somewhat pampered under Ginnie's influence. The worst part is that I'm expecting something to happen. Even if something doesn't, I'm constantly on my toes. What I really want to do is just blaze through the next few days in a cloud of smoke, but I promised Kait I'd take it easy with her dad in the house.

Second Comic Book Project class is today at 1:30. I'm feeling a lot more confident than on Monday. Bring it on.

12:01 - 1 grilled ham and swiss, 1 Propel, and 1 piece of lemon cake

20:26 - 2 canneloni, 2 Diet Cokes, 1 grilled ham and swiss, 1 glass of milk, and 2 peanut butter cookies

And a lot of pot! HA!

Philip - Day 47

--:-- - 1 bowl of Frosted Flakes

14:22 - 1 Slimfast meal bar and 1 glass of milk

21:45 - 2 chicken enchiladas with Mexican rice and 2 beers

22:37 - 2 peanut butter cookies and 1 glass of milk

Philip - Day 46

9:07 - 1 Propel

--:-- - 2 bowls of chicken fried rice and stir fry, 2 glasses of white grape raspberry juice, and 1/2 a bowl of strawberry cheesecake ice cream

Philip - Day 45

9:52 - 1 grilled peanut butter and honey sandwich, 1 grilled pastrami and provolone sandwich, and 1 glass of milk

So glad to be home. So glad.

18:10 - 5 slices of pizza, 1 large sweet tea

The Comic Book Project is off and running. I only got to spend time with half the kids involved today, but I think it really helped them. There are some great ideas starting to take shape. It will be interesting to see what will come of them.

22:31 - A few slices of Pastrami and 1 glass of milk

Lauren - Day 39

Breakfast: a large cappuccino blast

Dinner: Chipotle burrito

I stood in line for an hour for that free burrito and it was damn good.

Philip - Day 39

12:16 - 1/2 a bowl of Frosted Flakes

I'm a raging burning ring of fire
And I get hotter as I get higher
And I'm tearing a whole right through the sky of blue

14:05 - 1 grilled pastrami and provolone sandwich with Thai peanut sauce, 1 grilled peanut butter and honey sandwich, 1 glass of milk, and 1 Propel

19:12 - 1 "Turkey Russo" sandwich, chips, a Coke, and two pieces of Strawberry Shortcake Serenade ice cream cake

The music video for Axe is so sexist and over the top it's awesome. They managed to walk a fine line of parody by distilling every Pussycat Dolls and Christina Aguilera appearance ever. Bomchickawahwah.

Lauren - Day 38

Breakfast: raisin bran cereal

Lunch: milk shake with world class chocolate ice cream

Dinner: salad with tons of stuff in it and some chicken

Snack: potato chips and mountain dew

So much drama at work over the weekend. People didn't show up on Friday, one person was left to close, one of the ice cream freezers got turned off...the list goes on and on. I think several people are going to be fired. Sixteen year old boys should not be trusted to close a store by themselves. Ever.

Philip - Day 38

9:16 - 1 Propel

Did 25 crunches, since I haven't in a long time. Lazy. Anyways, I started reading Maximum Ride 3, and playing the new Spyro and Tomb Raider games. Both are incredibly intuitive and are really fun to play. The weirdest thing is they both have widescreen TV options. Never seen that before.

"Do I need to bite you on the buttocks?"

13:08 - 1 peanut butter and honey sandwich, milk and cookies, and 1 Cherry Zero coke

They managed to get the smell out of my chair right after the fact. Interesting. This needs to be tested.

--:-- - 1 grilled pastrami and provolone sandwich, 2 turkey burgers and bbq beans, and a glass of milk

Lauren - Day 36 and 37

Breakfast: hamburger patty

Lunch: ravioli

Snack: butter bread

Dinner:mashed potatoes and butter bread

Breakfast: 2 honey and oats bars

Lunch: two chicken breasts from KFC, some bbq beans, and this corn stuff and a mountain dew

Dinner: more chicken, a few cookies and a brownie

Snack: propel water and a small back of chips

Today was a picnic for my mom and a bunch of people she did a play with a few months back. There's this guy who my mom wanted to introduce me to who was there. Very interesting. He's cute but we didn't talk much. Mainly because she didn't actually introduce us. My mom's such a flake. Anyway, the picnic was fun and I walked around a lot. Even though I'm really tired and still a little sick it was a good day.

Philip - Day 37

13:01 - 1 pastrami and provolone sandwich with Country Bob's, and four small cookies

--:-- - Steak and chicken breast, mashed potatoes, baked beans, sweet tea, beer, and 2 small pieces of cake

I got so, ... yeah. We hung out at Kathleen and John's for the second time in three days, but it was fun, though. Wednesday is Kait's birthday, so I need to go buy her present before we leave for Tennessee. Looking forward to it. I also took a multivitamin, vitamin c tablet, and palmetto gelcap. w00t.

Philip - Day 36

11:58 - 1 bowl of frosted flakes

16:46 - Graham crackers, 1 glass of milk, and 1 bowl of raspberry cheesecake ice cream

Dinner: broccoli and cheese soup in a bread bowl and a small Cesar salad

It's the weekend!!!! Yay!!!!!!

Philip - Day 35

16:38 - 1 slice of italian sausage pizza and a Propel

Girls is officially over, ... I hope someone picks up the movie rights. If it were toned down a bit, it could be a definite twist on the zombie genre.

23:48 - Chicken fried rice, 2 wontons, 2 glasses of sweet tea, and a piece of cake
