How to Turn the Page (on Life)
–
by
I’m not sure there is a wrong way. This week, I learned that I will be entering a new chapter in my life. For those of you who are following me on social media, you will probably already be aware that I found out that my contract at NSERC, where I’ve been working for the…
What’s my weight again?
–
by
Future Chat is on hiatus this week, while Mike schmoozes with Disney characters in Orlando, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a lot to announce this week! I’ve decided to take my health changes even more seriously, and give you real-time (daily) access to how my health changes are impacting my weight. I’ve never done…
How to make slow and steady progress
–
by
People ask me from time to time these days: “Rob, do you think you will regret keeping people updated on your weight from week to week?”. To those people, I say “Maybe…but if it stops changing in a healthy direction, I’ll probably just stop talking about it.” For the time being though, my not so…
The “Honeymoon” Phase of #JuliaRoberts2015
–
by
Getting married has honestly been one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done. The idea of committing ones-self to only one other person for the rest of your life seems like the kind of thing that would be terrifying, but so far I have been completely fine with it. “The One Where They Got…
Weight Loss (How I Am Breaking The Pattern)
–
by
One of my favourite things to do is open up and talk about things that are going on in my life. If you want to hear about me in more detail, I convinced my co-hosts on Ottawhat? to let me talk about myself for an hour this week (listen here). But that’s not what today…
Taylorette1989 is Over, and What is a Podcast?
–
by
#Taylorette1989 is done. No, we weren’t able to get Julia into Taylor’s inner circle (although this did happen), but I think both Julia and myself learned a lot about life, love, and what’s important to us in the last 6 months or so of trying. I’ll be writing a bit in the near future about…
Dear Taylor, Love Rob
–
by
She’s kiiiiind of a big fan. Dear Taylor, You’ve got a lot going on. Last month, a letter you wrote on your blog helped potentially millions of young musicians to get paid during Apple Music’s 3-month free trial. Not to mention that you’ve been on a world tour spanning 7 countries and several continents since…
Reflections On Soylent So Far
–
by
I’m going to keep this fairly short, but after 5 days having Soylent for at least one meal, here are my thoughts: I don’t like the taste of sucralose, and it is the main taste of the current formulation. If there was a non-sweetenered version, I would find that much tastier. I would also love…
Soylent Friday: Day 3
–
by
Wow, the last three days have been crazy. Here are my live-blogs from Day 1 and Day 2. Follow the Day 3 story below: 5:40 PM Fri.: Going to see a movie tonight! I will probably get something like pizza or a hotdog, but I usually get both. I am pretty hungry, but I’m “saving”…
Day 2 Of My Soylent Adventure
–
by
For some context, yesterday was the first day I tried the futuristic food product called Soylent. It is a food product, not a supplement, so you can survive off this stuff. You can check out my experiences on Day 1 right here, and below, you’ll find my thoughts and feelings, and calorie math about Day…
