205.8

This week had the highest weight so far this year. Thinkin’ it sounds like good progress, but the 220 goal I’d originally set myself for the end of the year is probably out of the question.

Especially since, as is usual, my weight dropped after Thanksgiving…

204.1; Five common ideas in gaining blog posts

Trying to think about what I want to post here. A bit starved for ideas… I went around and looked through some old posts from various blogs I’d saved up once for a similar purpose and broke down what was pretty common — the results were mostly not very encouraging:

  1. “I’ve been getting a lot bigger lately…” Talk about how your face is changing, how your clothes are tight and how you’ve been needing to buy new ones.
  2. “I haven’t been able to gain lately because…” Cite family, work, unemployment, and general lack of motivation.
  3. “I’m not sure if I want to gain…” Submission to various types of fear or oppression.
  4. “I’ve been having to deal with…” Coping with various unwanted effects of gaining.
  5. “I’m still alive. Sorry about not posting.”

Most of these aren’t exactly the kind of idea you want to see more of! The exception is the first, and one doesn’t always have growth to report. So what’s a better idea? Well, it’s that time of year again… time for the holiday tub of popcorn. Let’s go!

The growin’ is slow goin’.

I haven’t been up to posting here in a while, which I suppose isn’t news, and neither are the reasons. Those of you who’ve been around here a while understand.

Thought I should leave an update even though I haven’t much to say.
