Opening Day

Mar 31

Posted by ChiliFrei64 in General

Well today Jackie, Rudz, Geoff and I all went downtown for opening day. We were down there at about 9am and started drinking shortly after. We were at HockeyTown Cafe which was nice because they had a lot of BIG TV’s for us to watch the game on since the weather wasn’t really all that great. We met up with Craig and a few of his friends at HockeyTown too so that was cool. Afterwards we went to Mexican Town to get some food and headed on back. Really, not all that much happened. Tigers lost and we had a good time. Here are the photo’s

Weight Update

Mar 30

Posted by ChiliFrei64 in Events, Health, Sports

Well I am just over 2 weeks into this whole Biggest Loser thing with some people at work. So far, from everything I have heard, I seem to be the leader. I have lost a total of 8lbs. That was when I weighed myself at work, fully clothed. So I went from 186 to 178. Jackie and I have the side bet. I got down 9lbs there, from 180 to 171, neked. That was Saturday. I have came back up a pound here on Sunday. I hope to lose atleast 3 more lbs by the time this finishes. That will take me down to 168.

Even with that, yes I am looking better, but I have actually lost a lot of weight in other areas I didn’t think I would lose weight in. So I still have a lot of work to do around the waist still but this is a very good start. I am happy with where I am at. My sister the other day actually said she didn’t think I could get down to 168. That helped me to a great workout the next day, which after my workout I weighted 171. I I like it when people keep doubting me because I am soooo stubborn that I use it to my advantage and turn that into motivation so I can prove them wrong.  So keep doubting me everyone. Please..

Tigers Opening Day tomorrow. Gonna head down there at 9am to get my drink on. GO TIGERS!!!

Computer Died

Mar 17

Posted by ChiliFrei64 in General, Technology

Well I came home from work and my computer stopped working. So far my only conclusion is my video card because I cant seem to get a video display to come on. When I pulled out the card I noticed a popped capacitor. And of course I bought it 1 year and 1 month ago so it is not in warranty anymore. BAH.. I figure I have about a month I can do without a computer. With all the going to the gym for this competition, haven’t found much time to go on it anyways.

Down 3 lbs… Weigh in Wednesday.

Biggest Loser

Mar 12

Posted by ChiliFrei64 in Events, General

Yesterday some people at work were starting up a competition. The Biggest Loser competition. As I was walking out the door, they asked me if I wanted in. I said yes. I thought it would be a good way to jumpstart my spring workout. It was 20 bucks to enter and there were 10 people so thats $200 bucks I could win..

Today we weighed in and I weighed in at 186, fully clothed.  I was the lightest male in the competition and one of the lightest overall. That could be good or bad.. either I will get a better percentage of weight loss or I will have less to lose. We’ll see.

Tigers Tickets

Mar 1

Posted by ChiliFrei64 in Events, Sports

Today, Paul, Ryan and I all woke up early and headed downtown to go get some Detroit Tigers tickets. We thought we were going to be ahead of the game by going down there early. So we woke up at 4 and headed out there only to find out that they were doing the whole wristband thing. So we got our wristband and we could not get in line until 8, so we went to the casino. Paul went ahead and owned the slot machine and came back with an extra 200 bucks while Ryan and I watched.

Once we got there we were wrapped about 1/4 the way around the stadium and the line wasnt moving all that fast. We were in line for about 4.5 hours waiting for tickets. The whole way up we thought for sure they would be sold out of the games we wanted. Lucky for us.. they weren’t. We ended up with 9 games and in all but 1 we are all sitting next to each other. Not bad.. Next year though.. prolly gonna get partial seasons and sell the ones we dont want..
