So the weekend came and went. Got paid finally after being sick for 2 weeks in February, that helps a lot. I’ve also been working on the site a little and redesigning it, I found out it wasn’t that great for people with certain browsers or especially certain screen resolutions. It should be a lot prettier now.

I’ve also been using www.Projectwonderful.com ads a lot lately, and over the weekend my ads have gone down a bit, but I think as my site grows, that Project Wonderful, might do more for me than adsense has, at least so far.

I’ve got a site that brings in 50-100 visitors per day, has 60 subscribers, and is ranked 200,000 in alexa, and has a PR3. That site hasn’t really made me much money at all yet, and I’m at a loss as to why. On ALL my sites I’ve made about $70 in a years time via adsense.

I’m hoping to get okay’d for www.Payperpost.com soon on this and my other blog, and will be using that to supplement my income a tad big. I could still use help running www.blogcontestsite.com if anyone is interested, just comment on this post.

Also I started my prescription of Phentermine and have started walking for 10 minutes per day, and drinking diet soda or propel water. (Got a great deal on propel at costco - only like 41 cents per 16oz bottle - that’s as cheap as they come.

So far I’ve only noticed that I have a lot more energy and I make it a lot longer throughout the day on Phentermine, but I’ll keep you posted - my appetite may also be lessened slightly, more so during the day.

I also snagged Guitar Hero III for PS2. I must say the game is totally sweet. I’m addicted - my arms and wrist are burning though from 4 straight hours of playing the game last night. I missed the Linkin’ Park tickets so Guitar Hero 3 was my make up reward from my wife. Hehe.

Anyways, I’m writing this from work and must get back to work. Take care and keep Blogging!

Ok, This weekend I had to make a huge sacrifice. I’ve wanted to attend the Linkin Park concert at the E-center forever, they are my all-time favorite band, and finally I have my chance, my wife even gave me the go ahead to purchase tickets. But I’ve decided that this weight loss thing, is just too important. Instead of going to linkin park, I am going to buy a membership […] Continue Reading…

For a fat guy, arm rests are probably the make or break you. You can’t make it through life without sitting. Most places you go - dr’s offices, work, movies, etc have arm rests, and if you’re big enough it can really put some grooves in the flub. At work, I unbolted the arm rests from my chair so I could be comfortable.

This site, isn’t just about my weight loss struggle. That’s a huge part of it - but it’s also my struggle to get out of debt, and be able to buy a house.
Along the same lines, I’m also trying to trade or barter my way into a house. I have a nice, cute pair of Fuzzy Baby Slippers, and I’m looking to trade them for something bigger and better, eventually, hopefully, I will be […] Continue Reading…

Losing weight is definitely hard. There’s no question about that. It’s twice as hard when you’re bed ridden for a week, because 90% of your left lung is full of fluid,  and you are on oxygen.
Thankfully, I am over that. It also stinks being broke, and we had our internet shut off, I’m currently blogging from work and a library, it’s not the easiest thing to do.
 Rent is our highest priority, then food, then […] Continue Reading…
