My only suggestion is one that works for everyone every time. It's not in a book, seen on TV, or the web. Doesn't require any special shopping or meal plan subscriptions. You can eat any food you like

Alrighty! These quests always work better when there's a group and there's a little friendly competition involved. I know I don't want to be the guy who actually gains weight during this challenge...

I'm in. I'll avoid shirtless posts, but I assume bottomless are still ok.

I'm seeing some significant progress!  I took yesterday off from my gym and will be back at it this morning.  My secret so far is stay away from sweets, too much alcohol, portion control and burn/exercise those calories off.   Stay focused !

Weigh in for me will be Fridays. Weekends are the most difficult because of being at home and around food for most of the day so it's easy to grab a snack and not think about it. I want to lose weight so I am not giving in, it's only been a couple days, but still doing well. I am not killing myself with workouts, starting slow. 10 minutes treadmill, 10 minutes elliptical, and then 10 minutes in the rowing machine, I hope to work up to being able to do 20 minutes of each, with more resistance with each step up. I figure 30 minutes to start is better than what I was doing. Which was nothing. So I'm already way ahead. Stay strong friends. We can do this.

I was off yesterday as well. In my home gym this morning and went through the entire routine. I'm actually starting to look forward to it each morning. Guess that's the benefit of this cold weather. Not much else you can do.

I was so busy at work this week that I didn't get to the gym. Ran some stairs in my house and did push ups and sit ups but no gym.

Weighed in at 306 just now after waking up. Cut out ice tea for most of the week and stuck with mostly water. I drink a lot of tea so it is hard to cut it out at once. Being sick I haven't cut out hot tea just using honey instead of sugar.

Proved what I thought cannot do elliptical, destroy knees so that out. Rowing machine for 15 minutes then weight machines except the ones that are weight bearing on knees & hips. Gonna work just fine. Did an hour and flew by. Going for 2nd time later today.

Weather breaking so will be at range tomorrow. Haven't hit a ball in 8 days!

Weighed in a 217 this morning after Pound Class - Amy once again kicked my ass.  It's interesting being the only guy in the class with anywhere from 20-30 women, one of which, of course, is my wife. One woman said her husband was to embarrassed to come to the class - for me the embarrassment horse left the barn years ago!

 

It's one intense workout, but it does wonders for legs, thighs and core. 

 

Also had a prelim meeting with a personal trainer - we talked goals, etc. First session is next Saturday afternoon - can't wait to see what she comes up with. 

 

Yoga tomorrow - then two days of business travel. Will have to make sure to bring workout clothes.

 

Let's keep it going gang!!!
