Matt, I had a Total Gym that sat in a closet for about 10 years until last spring i happened to purchase a exercise dvd for Total Gym. I now use it every day - it augments the sit-ups, push-ups, squats and rotational exercises. It's a great machine for me.

I'm down 5lbs as of today and have 15 more to go. Masters week is still a good ways off so we can do this.   Keep focused on good health and not just dropping the weight and we can keep this pretty figure up...  :D  I'm shooting for  solid 200 lbs with a 36 inch waist.  I've been stuck in the 220ish range and 38 waist for waaaay too long.

First time on an elliptical in a long time as I'm on the road. That was a fun change to the spin bike. But some different muscles got worked.

I'm a little late to this party but after reading through some of the posts in here, I could use the extra motivation and support. I'm currently at 290 and trying to get myself down to a more reasonable 240. I've started logging all my food with MyFitnessPal and have a fitbit urging me on to 10k steps per day, but have yet to start any serious exercise routines. I don't have any specific plans at this point other than: eat less, walk more when I golf, and get started with some cardio.

Kegger, welcome to weight loss/ exercise thread. Watching what you eat and walking will definitely help. What will accelerate the loss is exercise. It's a simple formula: calories in less calories expended.

 

Once you start working out and see calories burned it'll help your eating style or choices. As an example I love donuts - but one donut is equivalent to 40 min on the Eliptical. So I'm motivated not to have the donut because it means extra time on the Eliptical.

Kegger, good luck with this we are all in the same situation. Sounds like you have a decent plan of attack, stick to it as best you can and keep checking in with us when you can. Good luck and you'll be happy you did it

Further to OG and GS Barba's posts regarding weight loss and helping each other out, I'm starting this thread in the hopes that those of us that need or could stand to lose a bit of weight will chime in.

 

I really want to get down to 180lbs. I've been struggling with my weight for years and my lowest (about 6 months ago) was 199.2lbs.

 

I've crept back up to 207lbs and am not really happy about it....but that's the holiday season.

 

So, I'm thinking that those of you who want to participate can just post here, maybe what you're doing, eating etc or just a weekly/fortnightly weigh in.

 

So that's it in a nutshell, chime in or I'll talk to myself.

I need to loose 10 grrr easy to put on not so easy coming off

It's not an easy process. So far lost 5 lbs. and wasn't that bad. I think the next 5 will be tougher then so on. SWMBO and I are hitting the gym 4-6 days a week and I'm trying to get gym and golf to coexist. Should be a interesting journey for all of us !

I was talking with a trainer the other day and they said to not worry about weight but worry about technique and working those specific muscles in that workout. I found I was just going through the motions and not getting everything out of my workout. I bet we can relate this back to golf too

Today I was able to make it through 2 full sets of the circuit. I played some basketball before and after didn't have any legs after but was still able to get through. As for diet still sticking with 2 main goals no pop and no fast food. I will check weight tomorrow but not expecting much change there.

I had to go buy new suits today because mine didn't fit well at all....on the large size. For the first time since college my jacket size didn't star with a 5 and the pant size didn't start with a 4.

Checking back in...now down to 216.8 after some stagnant weight loss...(actually went in the wrong direction a few days). So a total of 10 lbs. down.

This has been all through diet. I haven't gotten into the gym yet.

The thread is motivating.

Thanks

 

 

Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

That's awesome, keep it going!

We went to the gym today and we talked to a Trainer, his take was gym was 20% of the weight loss the other 80% will be what we eat and PORTION CONTROL! I believe him.

Don't worry about what the scale says, especially if you are working out, really pay close attention to your “diet”, ie. What you are eating, how much you are eating, and the types of food you are eating. Let your clothing tell you how the weight loss is coming. Does that shirt that was somewhat tight, fit a little better now, do your seem to be a bit looser where they used to be tight. Those are the signs that your body is changing. Muscle has more weight than fat in your body, so if you are losing fat and gaining muscle, the scale will not show it. Keep strong friends, we can do this. I bet in April most of us will be saying, down 30 pounds and a down a couple pant sizes too. I feel good. That's the goal. Remember the goal. Enjoy the journey, the weight didn't get there in 3 weeks. It's not coming in 3 weeks either. Continue the fight.
