Ugh...I purposely didn’t want to know how much I gained that night. I just put my head down and worked my boobies off this week. The fucking scale number has such an impact on my mentality.
Yeah I was very disappointed Monday morning when I weighed myself. Just like you said I told myself I won’t weigh til Sunday and went hard everyday, 60-90 mins cardio followed by some lifting
Initial: 323 Week 1: 319.6 (-3.4lbs) Week 2: 321 (+1.4lbs) Week 3: 313.8 (-7.2lbs) Week 4: 308.8 (-5 lbs) Week 5: 307.4 (-1.4lbs) Total: -15.6 lbs (-4.8%) Over indulged during Super Bowl as I was at 313 Monday morning, so happy to have lost that and some more this week. Much more comfortable with diet and exercise. Hoping to get into the 200’s over the next 2 weeks
I fucked up. Had a long week (getting sick and work trip) that included a lot of time on my feet in work shoes. Plus I had no energy to work out due to said illness and inability to eat. Yesterday, I'm finally feeling good and run over 5 miles, first time working out in about 6 days. My usual range is around 3 mi. Also, it should be mentioned I broke in a new pair of running shoes on 2/1. Today I set out to run about 2 mi leisurely just to wake up the legs a bit. Well, with about 4 minutes left, a sharp ass pain came on in the left heel area and stayed. Now it hurts just to walk or stand on it. Guessing plantar fasciitis but who knows. Icing and resting it now. Really hoping this doesn't hamper the workout routine because I feel in better shape than I have in years.
Get some sort of small bouncy ball(I use a lacrosse ball) and roll your foot on it while sitting down. Works great for me. Mine has been acting up because I’m running more than I ever have in my entire life.
Did 10.5 miles on the elliptical yesterday total. Wanted to do some outside workouts today before we get some snow tomorrow. I suck at running haha. I was also gassed since I’m in my fast now. But damn if the pressure on my knees and back isn’t brutal af. Need to drop more before I run more.
Alright. Shitty week of diet & exercise plus Super Bowl shenanigans then a work week in Vegas is all over. Hopefully still even. Will be happy if I’m down anything tomorrow.
Lost 3.6 this week to bring the grand totals to 18.8 for 2019 and 85.4 total in 21 weeks. Back around the weight I was when I graduated college. Just cleared out my closet again. Two more contractor bags of shit that is too big gone.
Officially signed up for that half marathon in June. Have 4 months to get my long distance running endurance back up.

What BuckeyeRiot said. I do, however, appreciate your adherence to the statutory canon of construction that the plain language controls. Also, announcing a new rule: if you have to weigh in at a BB&B or similar retailer, you must do it without clothes or risk disqualification from the competition.
Spoiler: Week 4 Results Spoiler: Week 4 Results - Little Guys We lost a competitor, RIP in Peace. Friendly reminder for DirtBall, H/T, Druce, It'sAlwaysSunnyInAthens, fsuNizz, and dawgonit to weigh in this week.
I'm glad I am not actually participating because if I was I'd be in 11th place right now and I would be mad as hell. You guys are killing it.

I hear ya, dude. I know that there is literally nothing I can say to get you going, that the LAST thing you want to hear is some pushing, quasi-motivational bullshit when you’re not “in the mode”, as I like to call it...but I’m still going to, man. No matter how shitty you feel currently, whatever is going on in your life, if you can get yourself to get it in gear, you’ll remember how fucking great it feels and how oddly addicting it can get. But as everyone of us knows, that’s only something you can do when you got yourself in the frame of mind to do so. Not a person on earth can change your state of mind for you. So good luck, today is a new day(cliche, but true as fuck). Get it, babe.
I went to birthday party for one of my wife’s friends last night. Pizza, fried chicken, potato wedges, cheesy-garlic bread, cookies, brownies, cupcakes, beer, pop. All the triggers on one buffet and a bunch of people I hardly know which usually just means “how much food can I sit here and eat while being antisocial?”. I ate 2 platefuls of salad, one wing, and a single slice of garlic bread. Spent the entire time playing with my son and the little kids. I was down a full pound this morning from where I was Sunday. All that to piggyback off what marcus said. DrunkJester this isn’t an easy thing we’re trying to do. It’s thousands of non-stop decisions that DON’T pay off immediately. I know I can’t make 10-15 choices like I did yesterday unless I’m focused on changing. However keeping things in perspective, you can make a mistake on one decision or 500 in a row, all that really matters right now is the next choice.
going to my grandparents cabin with some buddies and hitting up the unc/wake game and then golfing too. gonna be a very unhealthy weekend but the physical aspect of golfing will hopefully mitigate some of the damage
324.7 Guess I'm down a little after absolutely no exercise and bad eating the past couple weeks LMAO Gotta pack and move myself this week and get back in the game this should help me burn some calories.
if this petition fails, one of us needs to become a mod so we can throttle his account to prevent further successful weigh-in posts
I was given an anonymous tip that BRC has been using banned substances. Investigation has been launched
Had a bad week..at 267 But just bought a bunch of personal training sessions and back to my strict schedule Spoiler
I honestly give people a ton of credit for having bad weeks, getting on the scale, and posting it. I’m sure that helps you with accountability. I often coward out when I think things are going to be bad and try to make up for it, weighing in at a later time. However, then I wait too long to get back on the scale and the gaining starts up again. That needs to finally change. Bravo, dudes/
Kinda hard to tell in this light, but I’m at 244.8. Hopefully at 10+ lbs lost this time next week. Spoiler
