The Blog Stalker temporarily steps away from the outstanding blogging environment of Blogstream in order to bring you yet another story about a self-identified fat man crossing the country to lose weight.

After receiving a tip from another blogster, who shall remain nameless, I began following the journal and guestbook of Eldon Ward at fatmancycling.com. Ward, who weighed in at 432 pounds on August 29, made a decision to ride a bicycle from Pahrump, Nevada to St. Augustine, Florida in order to lose weight.

As Ward nears Phoenix, Arizona with a continuing problem of broken spokes on his Giant bicycle, his weight loss now totals 55 lbs.

For those who suffer with weight issues, Ward offers a lot of inspiration and humor as he chronicles his journey, trials and all, on a daily basis. He also posts videos and new photos on a regular basis.

Those without weight loss issues can also benefit from this story. It takes a lot of courage to make life sustaining changes and the journey is never without pain, but always brings rewards.

Stop by fatmancycling.com and check out the journal and guestbook entries, send an encouraging e-mail if the spirit moves you or post an entry in the guestbook.

Happy blogging!

Good morning blogging world. Much fills the stalker's plate this day - things like many blogs, printer ink and diminishing brain cells - but in a moment of extreme clarity, he brings this suggestion:

Check out "Echoes from the Tomb" by the quickly multiplying personalities of Scratch. Scratch delivers consistent comments to other people's blogs, has a sense of humor and writes one gem of a story (The King of Canal Street).

Keep the words coming Scratch.
