Default Re: Losing Weight with Andysutherland

Well, I'm one week in and have had mixed results.

I'm down 4.4lbs, which is good, but I still need to work on my eating and activity level. There are a few bad items here at my brother's house that I didn't bring here, wouldn't normally buy, but am snacking on. I also haven't started any exercise, but I'm going to change that after this weekend.

I'm going indoor climbing on Saturday and ice climbing for a couple of days on Sunday. I'll start climbing at the gym regularly after that, and may even join a cute friend at her kickboxing classes.

In any case, here are the results:
249.2/244.8/220 (s.t.)

I'm only saying 220 for now, because I have not been there in a very long time. I doubt I would get much lower than 200, so that may be the long term goal, once I reach the short term.

Updated my signature with the line (S: 220/C: 218/G:180). It's kinda strange to think that four years ago I was 170 and now I'm up at 218, but then that's what happens when you start living off of fast food, drinking lots of beer, and (in general) not taking good care of yourself.

I am still working on my nutrition at the moment. Need to get back into the habit of cooking for myself more and more. Did grill up 6 lbs of chicken thighs (bone-in) to use as components for meals. Also want to add in a late snack (ie - 9pm) of cottage cheese.

4.4lbs is great! Keep it up.

Week 2: Day 4


Breakfast: same
Lunch: same
Dinner: ??
No exercise yesterday. Gotta force some in somewhere today between another late day at school and then doing coursework this evening for my university courses.

Breakfast = 2 eggs, English rasher bacon (very lean), juice and milk.
Lunch = IDK
Supper = IDK

I have a few chores to do around here. I may also try to clear out around the heavy bag and beat it up until I get beat out. Won't take long.

Week 2:
Day 5


Didn't get any exercise in for two days straight now. Gotta do it today. Damn lesson plans, end of semester grading, and then taking two university courses on top of that are time consuming.


Breakfast: oatmeal
Lunch: Sandwich
Dinner: ??

Last night I had Pesto chicken in tomato sauce w/ panchetta(sp) and linguini noodles. I got on the scale last night and have only dropped one more pound, but the OFFICIAL weigh-in is not until Monday. So here's to a big weekend for me. My wife is following the diet part with me pretty well, but acts like it's a hassle to get in any exercise. That's what makes it harder for me. I want to do this together all the way.

Today is two weeks w/o alcohol, btw.

Good morning Andy, Ian, and the weight loss crew.

Andy and I are kind of opposite paths this week. My diet has not been what it should be (dinners specifically), but I have had my best week in a long time with exercise.

Dinner last night before the soccer game was a couple of pieces of veggie pizza and one beer.

Worked out for 45 minutes this morning. On the higher speed intervals I bumped it up to a 10 minute mile pace. It really felt good!!

Breakfast - the usual
Snack - the usual
Lunch - Tossed salad with a can of tuna
Dinner - I think I am going to do grilled shrimp and veggies - not sure though.

Have a healthy day guys!!!
