I am still moving in the right direction in my affiliate fatblogging efforts with one more pound down at the start of the week of March 9.
While it’s great to continue that momentum, it sure is frustrating to exercise and eat well, but not see more immediate results. Oh well, a loss is better than a gain, unless you’re talking the stock market, but I don’t want to go there.
And I’ve got a big challenge coming up this weekend. I am heading to South by Southwest 2009 in Austin, TX from Friday to Sunday, and I tend to have horrible eating and drinking habits when I’m traveling.
It’s tough on the road with all of the tasty options for meals. Since I work from home, it’s a much more controlled environment with plenty of healthy food and few tempting, junky foods.
I plan to try and get some exercise and be a bit disciplined for this trip, so hopefully I don’t return next week with a Texas-sized gain.
Starting weight: 225
Last week: 220
This week: 219

Hi Mike – thanks, but I was just there for part of Interactive and came back this past Sunday.
Hey Shawn, great to hear you’ll be down for SX. I’m a New Jersey native myself living here in Austin now. the best exercise i can think of is to take out a canoe or kayak early morning on Town Lake. Let me know and I’ll hook you up. I’m in with one of the local boat docks here.

How about a big ML pizza party during Affiliate Summit – that’s one trade show where you can have all the Rays you want!
I’m jealous. They would make millions of they’d fly original Ray’s to all the trade shows. Or just to our office!
Your Message@MLDina:
The good ting about Austin was that I was never tempted to have pizza there – now SES in NYC next week will be a different story. Temptation on every corner.
Pizza’s totally healthy (or so I like to think). Just go for the liquid diet, I hear that works too. Just kidding! Maybe it’s time to organize some exercise events at the conferences….
Your Message@MLDina:
Steak and veggies should be just fine.
Thanks
It’s just when I go looking for pizza 5 hours later that I get in trouble.
Congratulations on your loss. It’s a lot of hard work but so worth it! Keep up the good work!
Shirt looks great, but we’ll get you an XL so you have a selection. It’s going to be tough eating well at SXSW- but steak’s good for you, so you should be safe at Sullivan’s
. See you this weekend!
Eat the BBQ while you’re there in Austin. Let’s not forget about the Mexican food, especially the one’s that are the hole-in-the wall. For good seafood come on down to South Padre Island.
If you’re worried about gaining weight at least make it worthwhile!
