Fat Shawn – the Fatblog of Shawn Collins
A fatblogging journey of fat to fit with all of the setbacks and victories.
From the monthly archives:
Today, I ran nearly 3 miles to bring my total to 100 miles since I started running in July.
My miles are tracked by a little Nike+ device in my shoe and my iPod Touch.

I posted an interview a couple weeks back I had with a woman who works while using her treadmill, and I’ve been thinking about doing it myself.
I’ve been reading about other folks working on treadmills, and it seems like a great way to optimize time.
But I’ve been apprehensive about investing in a treadmill, since I [...]

Yesterday was my second 5k race, and while it was slower than I’d like, I had a big improvement in time from my first 5k race back in July 2009.

I used to be a fat affiliate. Well, I wasn’t an affiliate at the time, but I was fat.
Today, I’m about 40 pounds lighter than I was at my peak. I didn’t use any magical diet, acai berry pills or even colon blow – I ate a sensible diet and started exercising. For me, exercising [...]

So, after a few weeks of consistent weight loss progress, you realize the scale is not going down anymore. You give it a few more weeks and still nothing. Finally, it dawns on you that you have hit the generally dreaded plateau. You never believed it could happen to you right? So what [...]

I have been fatblogging on my business blog for many months, and I figured it was time to branch out and create a new spot for my posts on trying to fight the battle of the bulge.
Anyhow, I am Shawn Collins, a 39 year old guy with a beer belly who is trying to eat [...]
