Since EUREKA, I have continued to watch my calorie intake, stay active through running and hockey, and my daily weight measurement and trend analysis. As represented in the graph below, I am still on about a 1 pound per week average loss. Overall, I have lost about 15 pounds since my original weigh-in at 230 [...]

We have completed the 6 week EUREKA plan and I have to say, I am pleased with my results. I averaged a 1.4 pound per week loss. That’s about an 8.4 pound total loss over the 6 weeks (based on the trend). In the last week I started breaking the 220 pound line on my [...]

I am continuing on a 1.5 pound per week loss. That is pretty good I think. It is well within healthy norms and I have made some really good progress since I started.

I have definitely hit a plateau. I think this is due to an increase in calorie in take between Friday lunch, Fair food on Saturday, and football Sunday gorging yesterday. Time to be good this week and skate tomorrow night.

I really stepped up the calorie deficit the last few days and the results are evident. I’m averaging a 1.9 pound loss per week now. That is a good healthy pace according to what I have been reading. However, I am starting to plateau at a 225 average so I need to find another way [...]

Like I predicted, the trend took a much steeper downward turn. However, I think most of the last week’s progress can be attributed to this cold I picked up. I have felt bad since Wednesday and have not really had any appetite until last night. I have been on a mostly juice and water diet [...]

After the first full week of my workout plan, increasing my water intake, and moderately reducing my caloric intake the trend continues downward. Not as steep as I would like to see it but that may change after this week. It seems like my metabolism has woken up and started really kicking in over the [...]

We have officially started EUREKA. I actually started tracking my weight a couple weeks ago and running last week. This week I should really get into the swing of things. My daily weight trend has already started to decline with just the conscious act of tracking it daily. I will try to make my weekly [...]

Last week, my mom sent an email out to the family proposing a health and fitness program that the entire family could participate in. She has proposed that we form a partnership or support group called EUREKA: The Rigsby Health and Fitness Program, where each member chooses their own plan and goal. As we all [...]
