Weight Loss Update.... [10-12-19]

           I haven't gone any better with my weight loss and now sitting at 225 pounds probably gone up as of today but by tomorrow, I am going to start working on my weight again getting it down below 220 as I need to try and get to 210 by the time I see my family doctor as that is the first initial goal is to lose 15 more pounds before the doctor and then I can take the next step to lose another 15 - 20 more pounds at a time. I know and realize the time is now ticking to me losing the weight before my doctor visit in December and I just want to make sure I lose it and Sunday I am becoming very serious about the weight loss journey. I have let it get out of control again and I shouldn't be letting it get out of control honestly. Come tomorrow I am going to really put the focus in on it and I know I can get down to 217 as I was there last December. I think now it is much more difficult to lose the weight at this number then it is when I was at 239 but either way I am working towards it this week and it would be nice to get down to 222 - 221 in the weight this week. That is a first step then I want to lose the weight slowly not fast as it is not healthy to lose weight too fast honestly. 


            So tomorrow starts what will be a very long haul to finally get the weight down fully to my goal as I have been doing this for nearly 2 years and it is truly time to lose the weight and I just want this weight loss to be done and over with as it has been a very tough time to lose all of this. Again I think I am just over thinking things with it and I need to watch my calorie count is the upmost important thing to watch and I haven't been and I am going to and going to make an effort too today if I can as well. Anyways that is where I am at with it and the other point I want to make is I need to stop with the snacking and I try to have a treat for a snack every week for example this week I had some popcorn and was portion size which is another point I would like to make next but I try to have a snack at least once a week and I know with Thanksgiving it will be quite difficult but I plan on having a portion size of food this time around. Either way I am so willing now to lose the weight and get my weight down and to a healthy weight again as I am just tired of being fat and it hasn't helped my knees out as recently gotten bad so the sooner I lose the better it will be on my ailing knees so I am so motivated to lose it now.

The Sports Hour W/ Billy Starts Next Month!

               I know I have been very vocal about Billy's podcast and I have some news to share with you guys and I know I have spoken about podcasts quite a lot lately and that is because I have been waiting for Billy being ready to go. He has told me that he will be ready to go in November of this year. Unless something does happen then things could change on the start  date but we are aiming for November for him to start. Now I have the logo already made and the feed is yet to be created yet for the podcast that is something I need to work on for the podcast before I start to distributed on other platforms and what not.  I am starting his podcast out on the one platform then it will be distributed to other plaforms such as:

• ITunes
• TuneIn
• Player FM
• Castbox FM
• ListenNotes
• And Much, much more.

             I am going to work on the main feed next week hoping I get the Power Rangers Lost Galaxy Notes well underway and I am planning next week to get started on his feed and hopefully by November we will be ready to go for when it starts. I am sorry we have been very, very quiet on things about his podcast but I was also dealing with the cancellation of CBOTW Gamers Podcast which is now not returning anytime soon so I kind of totally forgotten to hop on here and make that announcement to you guys. So both Billy and I are very much active with the planning of his podcast and excited for his podcast to be starting soon and I do need to ask him how often it will be going up and I need to know when he's starting so I can also post it up here on the website schedule as well. Also have to post up on the menu his podcast as well as the page exists but it isn't public yet and has been sitting hidden on the page for the longest time waiting for a formal update. I will have more details on his podcast hopefully next week I can provide you guys an update on things as I get more details coming into to me.

Everything About Reality TV Podcast Will Be 3 Episodes Short of 250!

               Originally was going to do a Throwback Thursday but I went against the idea as I feel like it was too soon to actually do this as I was only involved with PRCB for nearly 3 months and I wanna wait till I hit the 1 year mark at least. Anyways I was doing the math yesterday and I realize that I am going to be 3 episodes short of 250 and I feel like it's all my fault honestly. What do I mean? If I ended up continuing on with Big Brother 21, I more then likely would of had the 250 so easily, probably end up but a little over 250 by the end of the year. However that wasn't the case this time around, I ended up stopping those recaps towards the end of the season which I lost 2 subs because of it but hope I end up gaining that back eventually. There was a lot of flaws and issues I had this summer which has really made me think about the future of the podcast and that is one of the reasons why we will be 3 short but if it wasn't for what I did screwing things up like I have been then probably would of gotten to that 250 right on. I really messed up my numbers and hurting the podcast and honestly I am starting to question myself with this podcast to how much longer it will last if I continue with the route the podcast is going or I end up walking away and doing other projects that I have going on now.  Now I know I signed a silly contract agreeing I would continue on till Fall 2020 then it would be obviously up for renewal if I want to continue and I know that is like an guaranteed additional year for the podcast  but we will definitely will have to wait and see what the plan is for 2020 - 2021 when the time is right. I need to start focusing on fixing whatever the issues are and I know there are a few that occurred during the summer and they are:

1)  Staying on track and honestly I haven't been staying on track but honestly it has become better this season then the last season to be honest and things are starting to look up for the podcast but I did lose subscribers because of this and not staying on a schedule. 

2) Fixing the quality of the microphone which is already starting to sound a ton better then it has been in the last while. I am working on and it has indeed has gotten a ton better then it has been and I wanna remain professional with the podcasts I am involved with.

3) Not making the mistake to returning to YouTube was another mistake I made and you know the song and dance to that honestly. That wasted a ton of my time too as well hence the copyright claim crap I should of just continued on with Audio ONLY which has been blowing up like crazy in numbers.


              So there is tons of reasons why we ran 3 episodes short but do not worry come January 2020 I will be doing some off season podcasts so that will be the time to catch up on the numbers to ensure we will be ready for the winter season with Survivor 40, Big Brother Canada and Amazing Race which we do not know when that is coming out so it is on the wait list for now and we will see what is going to happen.

Mckeck's Food Review 2019!

             Last week, I was out and about with my dad and it was one of the two days I was out with him for the day. Anyways we had lunch over at Mckeck's Bar and Grill and mind you this wasn't the first time for me honestly. I have been there before I think I actually did a review last year or the year before but I would have to dig into the archives of 700 + posts that I have made over the years since February 2015 when I started making posts on almost regular basis. Anyways we arrived in Haliburton and got to Mckeck's and we put in our order. We had a craft beer which was from one of the local breweries there in Haliburton. I also ordered Chicken Caesar on a Wrap which had tomato wrap on it as well which was really good actually. The wrap itself was really good and filling as heck! Those kind of wraps are usually really filling. Least it was a more of a healthier choice since I am trying to be on this damn diet and honestly ever since has gotten out of control so I need to regain myself back on this after almost a week ago since eating out 2 days in a row. Now I also had kettle chips which is well known in the States. I was given several options and I am happy that I chose the Kettle Chips with the Chipotle Sauce. The sauce itself was spicy a bit but however it was still good with the kettle chips and I pretty much used up all the sauce too.


               Now the wrap I would give it 10 out of 10 as it went above and beyond for a wrap and was so tender and crunchy and so good that it sure as heck deserves a 10 out of 10. I'd definitely have this dish again in the very near future as well. Also the kettle chips need a rating out of 5 and once again I actually give it a 10 out of 10 once again. Crunchy, lots of flavor and the size of them were quite big and it was a filling as well. The waitress was really good and super friendly so service is a definite 10 out of 10. Also the restaurant gets a 10 out of 10 as well as they really have good food and like I said I have been there in the past years as a year thing when my dad and I are up there for the fall colors. In the end I highly recommend this bar and grill as the food is really good and worth it all in the end. I will talk to you guys tomorrow for the Throwback Thursday Story post.

The Plan for Everything About Reality TV Podcast In January 2020!

                 I know I have spoken about this last week or so and I know I was himming and hawing what the plan will be and today I have made the decision since there hasn't been an announcement for a Music City or Celebrity Big Brother Season 3 for both respected series so I am going with the go ahead with the following plan for production of the Podcast in the new year:

1) Plans to get a second host involved with Everything About Reality TV Podcast are in the works and there will be nothing really done on the podcast but I am sure there will be a podcast to introduce the new host and talk to them and maybe even do a Big Brother Off Season Podcast as a way to introduce them to You Guys the fan base who will be taking it over. I am excited to be taking this step to growing the Everything About Reality TV Podcast team and excited to what is going to be happening next.


2) Starting January 7th, 2020 since there is no Music City or Celebrity Big Brother US in the New Year I will be doing a podcast every second week while we are in between the podcast and yes it will be a definitely be a Tuesday and I will be adding onto the schedule here on the website and right now I still have to decide to what episodes I will be doing and I think it will definitely be at random at the most. I do plan to be active still on the podcast however not on a weekly basis more like every second week and do not forget I will be looking at auditions and picking the next Podcast host for the Big Brother Recaps.


                So there is the announcement and it is exciting stuff to be coming up for the podcast in 2020 and I will be working on the new host part and the preparation stages for it and I am not sure how it will work but I am going to figure that out and have a few months to get all the information together. What I can tell you guys right now that the new host will be hosting Big Brother Canada, Season 8 & Big Brother US 22 then we will be up to decide if they want to continue on with us if there is a Big Brother Canada 9 and if they is a Big Brother US 23 but will not go that far yet but it is up for negotiation especially if we see a 9th season of BBCan down the road. Final thing I would like to say is yes I am stepping back from the Big Brother Recaps in 2020 as I want to mainly focus on Survivor, Amazing Race and Amazing Race Canada and I also want grow the team a bit and after 4 years on the air, I definitely think it is time to grow the team!

Sauter's Inn Food Review

               So last Thursday night, my parents and I went out for dinner to celebrate my mom's 71st birthday and I think its a great idea to do actually and I do enjoy doing this with family and we have not done this before the 3 of us. Anyways we went to Sauters Inn in Pickering which is all German Food. I had 2 glasses of wine which is very unusual of me majority of the time. Now the menu side of things, it was not an easy choice to make when it comes to the food side of things and I just wasn't really sure what to get honestly but the decision was made to get the Veal Cordon Bleu which was very tasty and the breading practically fell off as it was very well cooked. For those who do not know Cordon Bleu can be used with Chicken as well but we always have Chicken every week here in the house so it was time for something completely different this time around. Also I had a choice of potatoes and veggies but decided to go with just the potatoes as I didn't wanna over do things. Funny thing I finished everything on the plate so I was sure as heck hungry when it came to dinner. So overall the Cordon Bleu was good, I would give that a 5 out of 5 all day long. Same with the potatoes as they were nice and crunchy as I like my potatoes from time to time.


               Finally we indeed had dessert and I wasn't going to as I was pretty much full but managed to slip it in. Anyways I had Apple Strudel with powdered sugar on it with a scoop of Ice Cream. Ice cream was so nice and creamy like it should be and the strudel was nice and hot as a piece of pie or strudel is. It is always good warmed up and that extra touch of powered sugar was nice touch to it. So the strudel itself is definitely a 5 out of 5 as I enjoyed it. I would go back in the very nearby future with my parents are occasion like birthdays for prime example. However this isn't the first time having it as my mom has brought home leftovers so I know what it tastes like, however this is the first time that I have been to the actual restaurant itself if that does make any sense to you guys whatsoever so there is a slight difference but I have had food from there and enjoyed every moment of it as it is a very delicious food. My favorite dishes are the Cordon Bleu, schnitzel and so forth. It was expensive but always nice to go do once and a while from time to time.

York Durham Railway 2019!

               I know the posts are out of sync in the last couple of days with my very busy schedule recently but here is the post for today. I went to York Durham Railway and this is the first time I have been there in 3 years as 3 years ago I filmed with Larry up there for the what was the series finale and also I took a trip on it with my dad that summer as well so it was definitely time to hop back on the train, even if it is partially down the line to Goodwood and back which is what we did. I am not going to talk about the difficult time we had getting tickets as things all worked out in the end but I am so happy they are getting more and more popular to this day and I'm sure when I filmed up there it helped them as well. Anyways we went to Goodwood and back and we were on Car # 101 which is a Budd car from Boise Idaho which yes is the potato state in the U.S. Anyways we were pushed and pulled by diesel 22 which ran in the province of Quebec. So we went on our way and now we were like in the dining car where it had a table and chairs so it was comfortable for me at least but it was nice but I perfect the other type of car but those were the only seats really available at the time of our purchase of tickets.


                This is not much of a post of the day as I did take several pics which you can definitely find on my Instagram account @ChrisBOnTheWeb. Anyways we had a good time yesterday and we know in the very nearby future we need to book ahead of time to do the entire trip to Stouville and back as we very much do enjoy that trip in the past and we will be back next year for sure! We will be making sure of that! Also we got a look at the Diesel up close and I wish I said I'd like to go into all 3 of the diesels when we filmed which I can say I have been in all 3 but least I got to be in 3612 at least. So may as well mention this to you guys as well this weekend my dad and I are off to Halton County Radial Museum and the following weekend we are heading to South Simcoe Railway so we will be indeed busy for the next few weekends with new posts. Again thank you so much for reading this short post and I hope you guys enjoyed this little post about my trip and I know it wasn't much but least I got a post out for you guys tonight due to me being extremely busy all day with Larry.
