Wow this week went by fast! I can hardly believe it! Here we are again, another Friday. I welcome the weekend, but it’s been an odd week. Are you familiar with sine waves? How about roller coasters? Roller coasters everyone knows so I’ll stick with that. Sine waves will only mean something to you mathematicians or scientists out there. Google it if you like. Anyhoo….
2010 Challenge Update – March 5, 2010 – Weight Loss Friday! (kindof)
March 5th, 2010 by Pete LabrozziPete’s Wednesday Comics Picks – 3/3/10
March 3rd, 2010 by Pete Labrozzi
Wednesday rolls around again, and despite the weather being fairly crummy, I have a mission! Why? because it’s new comics Wednesday!
This week I am heading over to good old Midtown Comics to pick up this weeks pull list, as well as last weeks. I couldn’t be more excited to finally get my grubby mitts on Blackest Night number 7! And speaking of the number seven, this week’s picks also features another “7th” issue; Justice League – Cry for Justice #7.
Cry for Justice (CfJ) has been an interesting series from the start. I picked up the first one because my man, Hal Jordan the Green Lantern, was leading the charge. CfJ explores several heroes coming together and demanding justice. The idea is that most heroes sit around and wait for something bad to happen, then proceed to stop the bad guys. However, a few select heroes are tired of this approach to fighting crime, and want to take the war to their enemy’s front doors instead.
New feature: The PeteCast eNewsletter
March 2nd, 2010 by Pete Labrozzi
Hello all, a quick note about a cool new feature to the PeteCast.
I have been making a push to try and post lots of fun content on the site. In the future this will only expand. I have been doing my best as well to get the word out there about the PeteCast. I set up recently a feature that automatically posts an alert on Facebook when new posts are made. With these alerts showing up both from me and to fans of the PeteCast there has been a fantastic raise in traffic.
However, I know I can do better. So I am happy to announce the addition of the PeteCast eNewsletter! You can read more about it by visiting the eNewsletter link in the right side column or by clicking here.
By signing up for the eNewsletter you will receive as-it-happens alerts or weekly/monthly recaps (you can change these options in your eNewsletter preferences). This way you can stay up to date with all the happenings of the PeteCast and be the first to know about new articles and features.
As always, please let your friends know and thanks so much for reading!
2010 Challenge Update – February Wrap-up
March 1st, 2010 by Pete Labrozzi
February 2010, at least for me, went by very quickly. Arguably it has a few less days than all the other months, but I’m still talking fast. The winter Olympics came and went, LOST season six started and has progressed nicely, and I have lost a lot more weight and finished a book. Wrap-up time!
Challenge #2: Lose weight on the South Beach Diet.
Current weight: 196.2
Current BMI: 27.47 (I think, may need adjusting)
Weight loss from start: -37.5 lbs.
Progress: While not quite reaching the sheer success that was January, February over all has been another fantastic month for my weight loss challenge. If you recall from my last monthly wrap-up post, I finished off the month at 208.6 lbs, a loss of 25.1 lbs from the start. As of yesterday, February 28th, I was at 196.2 lbs, a loss of 37.5 lbs from the start and 12.4 lbs total loss for the month. It’s just under half of what I lost in January alone, but is still a phenomenal amount as far as I’m concerned.
2010 Challenge Update – February 26, 2010 – Weight Loss Friday!
February 26th, 2010 by Pete Labrozzi
Another Friday and another few lbs. shed. The effects of the diet have kicked back in quite well this past week, so here’s the results…
Challenge #2: Lose weight on the South Beach Diet.
Current weight: 197.5
Current BMI: 27.65
Weight loss from start: -36.2 lbs.
Progress: This marks the end of my 8th week on the South Beach Diet and this week’s results rank as the 5th best week of the bunch. Not bad at all. With a total loss of 3.6 lbs. since last Friday, I have hit milestones like dropping under 200 lbs. and 35 lbs. total lost since start. If you saw my last weight loss update, I am also planning to create a second goal of 180 once I reach 190. Especially since 190 is now only a mere 7.5 lbs away. I can’t believe how successful I’ve been in this venture so far, and I can only hope this progress keeps up.
