45 lbs! Awesome!

 

207 this morning, about what I expected. Got some extra fluff from birthday dinner last night. Going to reweigh on Wednesday and expect to be a few lbs lighter

 

Still around, just not making any progress. Hanging around 215. Fast started last night, to continue until tomorrow night.

Down to 204.5 this morning. Shouldn't have weighed in immediately following a cheat day.

 

Seriously. Shout-out to everyone that’s still killing it with their diet and weight loss. It’s extremely hard and can be very discouraging at times when the scale doesn’t move, or even adds pounds. I quit drinking cold turkey to do this. I was drinking probably 40+ beers a week… eating unhealthy food and eating 24/7. I’m glad I finally have a little structure in my dieting life. I just wanted to be under 400 before I go to SC for my sisters college graduation. It’s looking like I might hit that goal and maybe a few more pounds under 400 by May 6th.

Headed to a 4 day beach trip in a few hours, will be an interesting test.

 

Down 14 lbs. I did a pretty terrible job of tracking calories this week but a 15 mile kayak fishing trip helped keep me in the red

 

I still haven’t pooped. I’m going to weigh in tomorrow

I had a little hiccup with my vasectomy and couldn’t workout for 2.5 weeks. I didn’t eat great and drank more than normal and ended up gaining 4 pounds in that time. Glad to be back on track.

pace has slowed down considerably, but these last 4 weeks have had my birthday, two business trips, spring break beach trip, multiple catered work events and Easter lunch yesterday, so the fact that I lost at all is a good sign as usually I'd be gaining during a streak like that.

now it's nothing but glorious routine and predictability for the next 2 months, time to pick up the pace. 190 by end of this is the goal.

 

5 days on my kids spring break in Hilton head, Birthday dinner for my son at a Brazilian steakhouse Friday, and Easter dinner last night

8lbs gained in 1 week.
Probably worth it

 

Not gonna be a good weight in after I had a string of bad days. But was worth it

 

I’ll weigh first thing in the morning. I hope those Easter bbq ribs and chocolate didn’t mess me up too much.

 

Turns out: they sure did

Weighed 201.0 this morning, crossed the 30lb mark. 11 to go

 

Nice work, dude. I've fluctuated between 207-210 this week. Weighed in at 208.9 this morning. Looking forward to breaking through this plateau and finally getting south of 200.

 

Same. I'm stuck in the 207-212 range. Been running more and longer than I ever have in my life but spring break, easter, and friends visiting killed my calorie count. Got a month and half and, while 180-185 is my ultimate goal, I'd be ecstatic to get to 199.

Moved and kinda got off track weighing myself. I was 215 this morning. Started in November at 238. very happy so far. Honestly just want to maintain this for a year and see how it goes.

5 miles yesterday morning, 4 miles this morning
Don't drink at night, then I run in morning, it's that simple.

 

I've been running farther than I ever have (multiple 5 mile runs and a couple 10ks). Gonna try for 7.5 today. One thing I just cannot tolerate is running 2 days in a row regardless of how far I run day 1 so props on that.

 

I've got the weirdest injury/discomfort situation with my foot. Doesn't really hurt, just feels wrong. I've been walking a ton and working out, then just randomly yesterday all day long it felt like I had something in my sock, like a bandage or something was under my big toe. I checked multiple times, nothing, but feel it clear as day. Now today, my foot just feels flat. No other way to describe it. I feel like my entire foot is making contact with the ground, like the arch and curvature disappeared. No pain at all, no muscle issues or anything, it's just as if my foot changed shape entirely. I'm baffled as to what it could be to be honest.


Still ran 3 miles today though and it didn't affect anything.

201.2 on official weigh-in morning but I actually weighed 198.8 this morning randomly. Feels great to finally break through that 200 barrier, though I'm sure I'll bounce around a bit for another week before being firmly under for good

first negative week but not surprised. Past week was a shit show of special events. Definitely need to buckle down here though as the plateau is in full effect and I've got at least another 15 I really want to lose.

 

I'm going scorched earth these final few weeks to hit 199.9 on the 26th. Been doing well recently after plateauing for a few weeks there.

Got my kids' bday party on the 13th and will eat like shit then, but have almost 2 weeks before and after to get after it.

Finally over the hurdle, hopefully for good.

 

I came in here looking for which poster lost 280 pounds. I am stupid

but congrats guys.

 

Final weigh-ins next Monday, or I guess Sunday the 28th?

 

Sorry I’ve been keeping track on my phone. Been a busy little bumblebee lately hehe

I did have my 3-month appointment this morning. Down 54lbs since my last weigh in at the doctors office exactly 3 months ago. And I was having some dizziness the last few weeks and my Doc said it’s because from eating healthy and exercising and being 4 months sober my blood pressure has kind of fixed it’s self and she took me off my blood pressure medicine. It was 118/84 and that was after a therapy session.

 

This shit right here is magnificent y’all. A lot of hard work went into this

 

Always my issue. Lose big, get complacent. I’ve probably lost 500lbs since 18. Which is insane.
