After a week of worrying that I had put on some weight, I saw 184 on the scale this morning. Crisis averted!

Well We started our vlcd 9 days ago. We had our first weigh in last night. The wife lost 5 pounds, and I lost 27 pounds in 9 days... I was excited

27lbs in 9 days! Excited seems like an understatement. Congratulations, that's awesome.

Well, I was a bit worried about stepping on the scale recently... I have been a little slack, not really being careful with portions, drinking too much beer and I missed 2 days of exercise....

That said, 195.4 this morning.... Down 27lbs, 12% of my total body weight since the first of the year. Actually having to tailor all my boardshorts for the Cancun trip....which though cool, is a pain in the ass....:r

I really wish I would have done measurements and body fat before starting this....

Nice job E.J.

I was at 219 this morning down from 245 at the beginning of the year. I understand the clothing Catch 22. I just bought 3 new sports jackets right before Christmas.

I always see this thread and want to post.
Well here it is.
December 11th, 2011 311lb
As of last week 296.
It's not Much but it's a start.
I was down to about 291, but it's easy to fall off the wagon so to speak and harder to get back on.

Here's my start to getting it done.

I gained 3 1/2 this past week. Spring break, kids off, had "carnival food" at the area Livestock Show. Back on the wagon, though.

I'm on my third set of new clothes since I started my journey. Just bought 3 pairs of 34" shorts today. That's down from a high of 48" a few years ago. I"m also on the cusp of comfortably wearing medium shirts. Clothes shopping is actually fun now.

As for the occassional gains, try not to sweat it. (I"m still trying to learn that too). It will happen. As long as you recognize it and make the necessary corrections.

Heading back to the Caribbean in the Spring and figured that I better get in better beach shape than I was in last year. I weighed in at 222('bout what I was in the picture you are seeing) at the first of the year and would like to get back to 200(weight I was when I graduated HS 24 years ago) by the time I head South. Way I look at it, it is about a pound a year....:r

Though I have always tried to get to the gym in the colder months and I ride bikes a lot in the warmer months, I have never really watched what I eat. That is relative, I like to think I know what I am putting in my body...but portions have never meant a thing to me. I am not one to eat dessert, but I'll eat 3 plate loads of whatever is for dinner, if that makes sense.

Anyway, I have started to count calories and have been religious at the gym.....we'll see where we end up..... It is written down for all to see, with a pic as well.... Here's hoping that I look better than this in 2.5ish months.....:tu

Congratulations, EJ!!! :tu

I continue to be stuck at 193. It's not a problem, I'd just like to go lower. It leaves me at just short of 60 pounds lost, starting when this thread started and lasting for quite some time now.
My habits have all changed and it's not tough to stay right here. It just happens, actually.

Re: Losing Weight with Starscream
 
Tomorrow's the day I weigh in. I'm crossing my eyes, fingers, toes, and t's that I lost the rest of the weight I had gained.

On the Scale today and and Down 6 lbs.

It would be so much better if i didn't destroy what I do during the week on the weekend.
Still working on a plan that works for me.

Been going to the gym at work and I found out I can use it on the weekend so that's a plus.

I need to work on my eating habits but those are getting better as well.

I would like to get to Warrior Dash June 9th.
Here's to getting it done.
