Weight Loss Thread

Ok I bounced back the wrong way by a pound however I know the college football playoffs were the culprit.  Too many adult beverages and off the trail snacking so now back to work. I think most of us can count on a bump in the road and the battle may occasionally loss however we must win the war.   Keep working hard guys!!!

OG we all have minor setbacks - the important thing is that we've committed to our goals and working through them.

 

As mentioned previously I'm not losing much weight - but then my objective was to get back into better physical shape. Today was a tough day in the gym but stuck through it and finished my exercise plan for the day.

Yeah, i broke the cardinal rule of looking too often and weighed myself Tuesday after what I felt was a good weekend of eating and working out.   Luckily I wasn't disappointed as I had dropped 3 pounds, so just need to keep it up

We have to be careful about becoming “scale watchers”, when we lose it gives us a high, but if we gain, it can be really discouraging especially when we didn't “cheat”, it's important to know that there will be some weeks that we won't lose any weight, even with diet and excercise, your body is sort of leveling itself out, keep at It, these are the time when you think it's not working, but if you keep going you will see the weight come off.

Today I took my two mutts for a walk in the pheasant fields of PA. Lots of hills and thick grass which makes for a good workout. Only walked 2 miles or so which is light compared to my hunting trip when I was easily doing 10 a day.

Exactly right. Usually I'm good about it. But this time I was weak and had to peak. Ha

Had my first week weigh in. I am down to 262.5, 2.5 lbs lost. That's good for the first week, I was hoping for more, but any weight lost Is good.

[MattF]

Just remember boys and (maybe) girls, it doesn't matter if you lose .5lbs or 5lbs, a loss is a loss.

 

Also, my Mum said a month or so ago, the weight didn't go on overnight, so it's not going to come off that way either.

Alright guys, I'm jumping in.

My starting weight on Monday was 226.2. Dropped 5 lbs in two days, down to 221.2.

I'm smart enough to know it's 5 lbs. of water weight but I will take it.

Goal is set at 205 lbs.

Realistically speaking, hope to be there by mid April.

 

Keep up the motivation.

Thanks

week 2-3 is always the big week for losers. Week 1 is building muscle to burn the fat

That's what I keep telling myself. I also keep reminding myself of what was mentioned earlier, the weight didn't get there overnight, so it will take time.

Yes - but it seems to go down a lot slower than it goes up.

We should have a weight in on Monday morning - maybe just giving percentage of weight lost over the previous week - since we're all at different weights.

I like this idea. Or how many lbs + or -

You can weigh in whenever you like, but I would suggest trying to do it at around the same time on the same day once a week...for those of you that can control how many time you step on the scale.

 

I usually weigh myself before breakfast on Sunday mornings.

I'd agree - there needs to be uniformity around the time of day as, at least in my case, there is a difference of several lbs between morning and night. Also I stopped weighting myself everyday and do it on a set day of the week (my case Monday). That somewhat precludes me from pigging out on the weekend.

So far Monday morning seems to make the most sense for me. Like Tony it may curb some weekend “indiscretions”.

I always weigh in on Friday morning.

[MattF]

Well, no loss no gain.

[Mr_Theoo]

Another pound down here. I'll prolly stick with my current macros for another week and if I don't lose much it'll be time to switch things up

[Rickp]

Start weight 224 lbs, this morning 220.5 lbs. Not a lot but not gaining!

Got a 8:00 tee time, going to be cold 42*. If sunny should be OK.

Down only 1/2 lb this morning - guess snacking while watching the Sony final round wasn't too good for weight control.

I've loss 3 lbs since this journey begin.   Although it's a positive I definitely need to step up my game and stay focused on the end result.  Let's plow forward!
