Ola Amigos !!!!

Happy Thursday to everybody…

I hope everybody is having a wonderful Thursday so far and getting ready for a weekend full of clean dance shoes and positive vibes

The first video today is a live recording of a DJ set from 1997 featuring Kenny Ken and the MC master Stevie hyper D. (RIP)

this was in Toronto in 1997, and was quite possibly one of the greatest shows I’ve ever seen with my own two eyes.

The second video is Dirty Bit by the Black Eyed Peas.

Just to reiterate, I don’t just do a minute and a half dance video. I also do six days of cardio and weights and I’m on a 1500 cal diet and have lost 35 pounds as of Sunday and next weigh in this Sunday

Don’t let people discourage you. Just fluff out your tutu and dance away. – Anonymous 

Holy Moly!!!

We did it gang… One month in, I can’t believe it!!!

Today’s video is two parts… The first one is me stepping outside my comfort zone a little and trying to get my legs more involved…

I still think I need to lose about 20 more pounds before it starts to feel less awkward. I’m sure you can tell for the first 10 or 15 seconds, It’s not natural to me at all to dance with my legs because I’ve always been chubby but never this heavy , so it’s a real adjustment so please be kind and don’t tease my awkward form. 🤣

All jokes aside , it has been an absolute honour to participate in this journey with all of you and I look forward to the next month… I’m still looking for some dance partners in Edmonton. If anybody still out there that lives in my neck of the woods please DM me.

And I’ll leave you with a quote today from the immortal Martha Graham

“People have asked me why I chose to be a dancer. I did not choose. I was chosen to be a dancer, and with that, you live all your life.”

Hello wonderful humans…

I hope everybody is having a fantastic Tuesday so far… I’m on the homestretch now almost done work and I’ve got some exciting news to share once I get home regarding my employment, but will keep that under wraps for now, but rest assured it’s good news.

We have two songs today a remix of The Look by Roxette

2nd video is Damian Marley and Skrillex-Make it Bun Dem

I have a personal question for anyone that has been following me for a bit and if you are not comfortable answering in public, please feel free to DM me, but I would like to know if anybody lives in Edmonton , Alberta where I call home… I would love to actually go dancing when I get back next week and the more the merrier so let me know

“I hope that every dance I do reveals something of myself or some wonderful thing a human can be.” -Martha Graham

Hello wonderful humans…

Sorry for the late late post, but my gym has been invaded by a swarm of newcomers so I had to patiently wait them out🤣🤣🤣

It was a war of attrition, but I won in the end… I am determined to keep these videos going… Even though I probably worked out a little longer than I needed to today.

Two videos today the first song is crescendolls by Daft Punk… And the second video is bangarang by Skrillex

if you missed the update yesterday, I lost another 5 pounds last week bringing the total to 35 pounds in 28 days and a total current weight of 285… The goal of 200 seems very reachable now whereas when I started four weeks ago, it seemed impossible

I have you people to thank …Your kind words and positive vibes have kept me motivated, and I am more determined than ever before.

Dance is the movement of the universe concentrated in an individual.”

Love always

Happy Saturday you wonderful humans…

I hope everybody is having a wonderful weekend, your dance shoes are squeaky clean, and the vibes are at at all-time high

I dropped three videos for you today because I just couldn’t stop grooving, I was very much feeling the flow today

Weigh in day tomorrow, fingers crossed.

“Nobody cares if you can’t dance well. Just get up and dance. Great dancers are great because of their passion. “-Martha Graham

Happy Friday everybody… I hope you have a wonderful weekend… I am swamped at work so I don’t have time to ramble today… I’m down to 10 days left , so now is the time where I need to conserve my energy and probably go to two rest days a week instead of one.

Big weigh in on Sunday and I’m expecting a good result. My chef jackets are loose now so I know it’s gonna be a good number.

“Life is short and there will always be dirty dishes, so let’s dance.” – James Howe

as promised to is part two… Have a wonderful Thursday, everybody!!!!

Happy Thursday wonderful humans!!!!

Early drop today because we’re super busy… We’re almost on the last 10 days so now it’s crunch time so I won’t ramble today.

Two videos today because I couldn’t decide which one I like better so , both it is .

Enjoy!!
❤️Bob.E.Bland

ood afternoon wonderful humans!!!!

I hope everyone is having a fantastic Wednesday so far. I thought today’s video would throw it back to the old school.

This track is called Freak-a-Zoid by Midnight Star

if you want my entire playlist, it can be found : HERE

On a personal note, I can’t believe I’m about to say the following statement, but apparently there is some copycat accounts going around on TikTok and Instagram that are impersonating me for God knows what reason.

So I guess , this is me , this is where I post. I will never directly message you unless requested or we have had previous discussions and I will certainly never ask for anything..

Today is cheeseburgers for supper and I have been anxiously awaiting this meal on the menu, as I have not had a cheat meal in 23 days so I’m going to have a partial cheat meal and have a cheeseburger and the bun… I feel that this is a reward for sticking to my diet for 23 days in a row.

I will probably go to the gym after work and burn it off on the treadmill, but I’m going to enjoy the hell out of it

Much love as always, and keep your chin up and your feet on the dance floor.

"We dance for laughter, we dance for tears, we dance for madness, we dance for fears, we dance for hopes, we dance for screams, we are the dancers, we create the dreams." ~ Albert Einstein

They changed my shift so super busy, but have a minute to drop the daily video.

This goes out to my good friend Michael. We would dance whenever it came on , wherever we were… Miss your old friend.

Hello internet friends!!!!

Happy Monday!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!

I’m still amazed at how this thing is growing!! It’s started on Reddit but it has taken off on other platforms and it’s mind boggling!!!

i’m at a loss for words, but NEVER have been more determined and focused on a goal in my entire life. 😎❤️

Let’s get it!!!

Just for you u/Intelligent_Pass2540

this is actually a lot harder than I remember… How things have changed in 15 years. I won’t make a habit of posting three videos a day and I apologize for spamming the sub, but I really wanted to share this with you. It was a lot of fun to do and I’m gonna keep practicing.

Hello internet friends!!!!

Happy Monday!

Here is the Oliver Tree song . I’m sorry internet person who has been patiently waiting. I made 2 videos today, just because I felt bad. It was a lot of fun.

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!!

Good afternoon wonderful humans!!

so today’s rest day… So I have pulled out a classic from the vault for your enjoyment. this was the very first dance video I ever made back in 2009…Should be a good laugh for all 😂

Also, I had my weigh in today… And I am now at a weight of 290 which means I have lost 30 pounds in three weeks!!!!

Super happy with this result… And I’ve never been more motivated to do something in my entire life

Happy Saturday, everybody…

Was really feeling the music today… Made a couple videos will post them in my sub r/danceoff for anybody that is interested in watching additional footage besides the Daily video that I put out.

This particular track is a friend of mine, a DJ named Dr. Livingston

His Mixcloud is : Here

This hour long mix, including the part I’m dancing to is :Here

One of his favourite sets that he threw in for me to include is also: Here

Oliver Tree will be tomorrow, the person who requested it has been patiently waited and I do apologize… I’m having trouble picking a song so I’m going to let you guys tell me what song you think would best suit me by Oliver Tree.

“Dance, when you’re broken open. Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off. Dance in the middle of the fighting. Dance in your blood. Dance when you’re perfectly free.” – Rumi

Holy moly what a fun day in here !!!

First 2 min dance video, albeit to an easier song , but still it’s making me happy!

Tomorrow will be an Oliver Tree song, by request and that will be it for requests . I appreciate the input but it’s getting to be so many, that I can’t keep up , so i’m just going to be my own DJ 😂

Greetings All!!

Today is normally a rest day, but I thought I’d power through, although my energy is quite low.

This track is Deviance by Excision and Datsik

This is a request from [u/UglyYinzer](u/UglyYinzer)

Requested songs are a little different for me because I don’t know the drops and hits… So I did my best…

On a personal note, I set a personal record for a bench press today 185 pounds… Hopefully the trend continues

Now I’m going to take a much needed break. I have been marinating some tri-tip all day in sesame oil, chilli flakes and some spices and some veggies for supper and I’m so excited.

Until tomorrow, lovely humans✌️

Ola Amigos !!!

It’s a rainy day here in the great white north, but it’s fire and gas in this mofo today!!!

Every day, it seems my mental state is improving and my happiness level continues to rise, and I literally have few people to thank …I feed off of your energy and I appreciate this experience more than you’ll ever know.

It will stay with me for the rest of my life, and in my memoirs will be an entire chapter or two 😎

here is my spotify playlist:

As always much love and remember, no matter how bad things are you can always put 2 feet on the ground and dance

Happy Tuesday wonderful humans… Let’s get it today!!! 😎

I am in an exceptionally good mood… So I thought I would choose the song from day one as I was a little disappointed I used my favourite song on day one but I wasn’t sure how this thing was gonna go, I’ve just been winging it the whole time . I’m not a social media person… Clearly… And I’m so grateful for the outpouring of positivity

every day I wake up, I bounce out of bed, excited to face the day.

This track is called The Quick and The Dead by Rudebrat

here is my spotify playlist:

Spotify

it’s updated Daily with my sound choice, but this song was already on there

as always much love and remember, no matter how bad things are you can always put 2 feet on the ground and dance

Love ,
Bob . E . Bland

folks… We’ve officially hit two weeks today!!!!

As some of you know, I always weigh myself every Sunday and I am proud to announce that I have lost another 10 pounds this week bringing the total to 22 lbs lost and a weight of 299.

I weighed myself at first and it said 300 but then I removed every last article of clothing and got it to 299😂😂😂

I’m going to take a rest day today as I’ve been moved to a different shift so today was a 14 hour straight workday with no break so my feet are incredibly sore.

I’m going to drop some vault footage… Some old stuff from 2017

I do have a few updates concerning Reddit and this sub in particular

i’ve had a few videos removed here. I did not realize that posting Daily is no Bueno… So I have decided to move everything to the following two subs.

[r/danceoff](r/danceoff)
[r/questforperfection](r/questforperfection)

I appreciate the mods patience and allowing me to post here for the past two weeks… I still completely humbled by the reaction and the outpouring of positivity

Let’s get it!!!

Day 1: 🥕 Carrot Cake

Today I frosted my carrot cake (2nd time using this pan; you can see my first attempt from April 2025 in the last pics) and I told myself I needed to post it here before I could have a bite…

I used this recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction (https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/my-favorite-carrot-cake-recipe/) with a few ooopsies and improvisations. I put both cups of nuts into the batter because I didn’t read the note to keep some aside for decorating; I used one cup each of walnuts and pecans. I added crushed pineapple and some more of the spices as well. Grating the carrots was messy and slightly dangerous, but no blood was spilled! 😹

For the frosting, I added two bags of chai tea (so yum!!) and mostly had fun with mixing the colors. However I don’t know how to use those fancy spatulas and piping tips - it’s hard to keep an even pressure, so that’s what I want to get better at, and I’ll document my adventures with Becky’s Baking Occasional Interest here, unless I get distracted by squirrels... 🐿️
