[fozcycle]

After 5 weeks of eating healthier and cardio. I broke the 200 lb mark and am officially 197lbs.I was 212 when I first weighed myself a month ago

Way to go!

 

I was the same in Jan and have lost 10 lbs to 202....but seem to have plateaued for a bit. Increased PT with stationary recumbent bike at home but not able to break the 200 mark yet.

Is it to late to join you all on this "adventure"? I really need to lose 25-30 pounds and get more active.

 

I am trying to get 45 mins of cardio a day in to help offset all the sitting I do at my office job. I really need to drops some carbs too. It's tough though a sandwich is so easy and cheap to make for lunch.

 

Good luck to you all on reaching your goals!!!

I joined mid stream and was excited to see so many familiar names here. I'm supposed to have a “group” that I'm a part of for my work fitness program but mostly they're crickets (accept the trainer, she's awesome).

 

I'm very thankful for the MGS community. I came looking for answers about the golf ball and have found tons of new friends.

 

I'm at 14.5 lbs! That's .3 of a pound away from the goal that the program set for me. Personally I want another 6lbs. In the next nine weeks and then I will re-evaluate from there. I really think another 10 after that or 16 from where I'm at today would be ideal.

 

I still hate the every day weigh ins. Today has the potential to cause some issues but if it's more prime rib and asparagus and less potatoes and no pie I should escape relatively unharmed.

Sitting at 319 this week. Pretty happy with my results over these last few months. Gonna try my hardest to get to 113 by masters Sunday then I'll prolly take a couple weeks off being as strict. Mainly to try out some new recipes and then start strong again first of may

Gained 0.4 after losing 1.5 the week before...it's maddening!

[tony@CIC]

Dropped 1.5 lbs. week over week - even with Easter! Workout program continues to be on track.

You should try weighing yourself everyday like I have to! It's nuts.

Are your clothes fitting any better?

211 @ Monday weight in. So far since mid January 14 lbs. lost. Wanted to do slightly better but that's the way it is always next week.

In a good note bringing 4 pair of IZOD shorts to Goodwill. Size 40 fall down without a belt. Moving to 38.one more belt notch and I'll be adding a hole to it.

Waist size is always a better indicator of weight loss than a scale!

 

Nice job - I'm sure the rest will just fall off.

Nice work! I'm eager myself to fit into my 38s. Don't think I've worn that size since high school sadly

Ok so my Masters week report in goes like this  Back in November I weighed 226 lbs.  At that time I decided to cut back on a few things with sugar products being at the top of the list.  We started this thread close to the end of the year with Masters week being our target goal.  I weighed in at 215 this morning so it has been a good transition.  I didn't reach my target goal and have a good ways to go however I realize it's a life style change and not a diet that will help me reach and maintain a healthy weight.  I'll continue my journey and I hope everyone of you will do the same.   Let's boot that fat crap out of our systems and become as healthy as we can!

Hell no! At least, not yet, still look like 10lbs of poo in a 5lb bag. 

[revkev]

I will say my clothes are fitting so much better. I'm down a loop on the belt and am closing in on loop number two.

 

I suspect that I will be at that next loop by tee time on Thursday morning.

Played pretty well this morning but I think the point is my driver and irons are getting a bit longer. I don't think the lbs I've lost and weight training are no small reason. I hit the longest drive I have hit in 4 years. No helping wind, no downhill, outside reason no and the guys I play with have also noticed. So I (we) got to keep it going not only for our health but to beat the other guys brains out

That's great to hear. I'm hoping the same will happen to me when I finally get on the course end of next week.

Hit the program goal that I was given yesterday. Got a very nice congratulatory email that then invited me to create a new 16 week goal (I hit my first one of 15 lbs. in 8 weeks).

 

It gave me a suggested ranged and I opted for 10 lbs., near the top end.

 

Honestly though my goal will be 15 more or under 180 by Penny's birthday. August 11.

 

I weighed 170 when I graduated from college. I haven't seen the 170's in 25 years. I think somewhere in the mid 170's would be just right. So there's still a ways to go.

 

I can't believe how much better I feel. Thanks for being a great support!
