I was going to write a post yesterday on how I seem to have plateaued a bit, about how Life Happened in the past two weeks, and how I Fell Off the Wagon (exercize-wise) and Am Crawling Back On. Then this happened. I went to the gym to do my workout and I weighed myself … More Tuesday Big Bit & Progress Report
Tidbit #1: Pre-Packaged Processed Product of the Week As much as I’d like to do this whole thing without resorting to processed foods, or as some of you might arguably call them, ‘non-foods’, while I am actively trying to lose weight (as opposed to when I will be maintaining my new weight) I will take … More Tuesday Tidbit & Progress Report

Let’s say you’re following your LCHF eating plan pretty well, you’re drinking plenty of water, trying to eat real food (as opposed to ‘food products’), maybe taking some supplements, perhaps you’re experimenting with some intermittent fasting…but you’ve hit a weight loss stall and the scale just won’t move. What’s…
You probably noticed there was no Tuesday Tidbit yesterday. Why? Because I seem to have a problem. Despite making these nifty worksheets designed to get me to always do things approximately when I need to do them, and despite improvements in getting them done, especially in the mornings, I STILL am not doing what I … More How My Brain is Wired and What That Has to Do with Successful Weight Loss
Monday is my official weigh-in day and so I’m planning a weekly Tuesday post with updates and just short little things with links or pics or vids I hope you find fun and/or useful. Tidbit #1 – Surviving a Holiday Cookout I’d like to share some things that saved me on the Fourth of … More Tuesday Tidbits & Progress Report

I hope I made it clear that I am only viewing it that way in reference to me and … More Finding My Motivation to Megamorph – Part 2 of 2 – and My First Vlog!
There’s a gigantic amount of information (and misinformation) out there about what things one should do and not do to achieve successful weight loss. In this experiment I am trying to integrate a whole lot of the things that have either been traditionally held as Good Ideas with some ideas that … More Anatomy of The Twenty-Five Pounds in Twenty Weeks Experiment

I don’t think many would argue that the lynchpin in the successful weight loss mechanism is a powerful internal motivation. But the … More Finding My Motivation to Megamorph – Part 1 of 2
So, I’ve been at it for a week, and what has happened? Well, I lost either 3 pounds by yesterday’s step-on-the-scale or 2.6 pounds if you count through today’s. I’ve been logging my weight every day (or nearly every day). Some diets say you should only check your weight like once or twice a week … More Day 8 of 140
Megamorphic Journey is a blog about a specific experiment in change (weight loss) and will chronicle how your author Terpsichore (that’s me!) will lose an expected twenty-five pounds in twenty weeks using a combination of conventional and unconventional means to do so. Along the way I will outline the plan, write more in depth about … More You Don’t Always Need a Complete Metamorphosis to Make Big Changes
