NorthSideSox72 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Sorry I've been not posting or changing my weight. I was out of the country for 2.5 weeks, then very busy. But, I've been working on the weight, and its working. I have dropped 15 pounds so far in Feb, and I'm down to 243 from 258. 2 weeks of backpacking and eating nothing but freeze-dried food did the trick. So, PA, how do we weigh in here? I am a little out of the loop. Is there a schedule? I'll update my sig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Kickass Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I have been eating such crap lately, that I'm surprised if I didn't pack 3 or 4 pounds on when I next deign to weigh myself. At least I think I'm healed enough to start working out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Kickass Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 The weather is no help. But massive back spasms coupled with a cold and a broken coccyx, not a lot of wanting to work out the calories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tex and FlaJim have no excuse. My excuse is that my wife is waffling in her own dieting commitment and now she's being a food temptress. I planned on having a plain chicken breast and some steamed veggies last night and instead I had a big honking chicken pot pie. If I don't lose at least 3 pounds this week it will be all her fault.

WilliamTell Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Spring Break is next week for me. Hopefully I can lose a few pounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife is the DEVIL when it comes to that. I usually do the food shopping, so I can control what we have, but last week SHE did it. Came back with ice cream, pie, Oreos and bacon! And the cheap side of me can't let stuff go to waste, so I am sure you know the results of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I done hit the wall. No loss or gain this week. No exercise, a couple of second helpings I didn't need, and a weak moment involving a mess of hot garlic Buffalo wings sums up my week. Poop.

Texsox Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I've been slow to weigh in. And it's ugly again. Working from home is killing me. Too much temptation and easy to reach snacks. I hit 232 this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Hudler Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Still plugging along. Down 1 pound this week. Today is my birthday and I am going out and plan on drinking beer and eating. Cooking a nice big fat ribeye tomorrow, so we shall see what that does to me next week. So far I have been pretty shaky during the weekends, but pretty good with my food choices during the week. I've changed the types of snacks I am eating and trying not to eat for no freakin reason. I am planning on starting to walk with a friend next week so maybe I can walk off the damage I do this weekend and still come out okay next Friday morning.

People aren't always aware of that. You don't have to do an hour of high-impact cardio to make a difference. I've known multiple people that changed nothing other than walking a mile or two each day, and they lost dramatic weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan1 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Unfortunately, some circumstances have forced me to stay stagnant for a few weeks. I had mid-terms, followed by Spring Break, followed by St. Patrick's Day....so, yeah. Still going though. Will weigh-in tomorrow night.

Chisoxfn Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Not a productive first week. I exercised quite a bit, but apparently that wasn't enough to overcome my drunken shenangans over the weekend and I actually put on 2 pounds. BOOO.

Texsox Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I'm back to where I started. 226 this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaSoxxJim Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I also continue to run into my wall. Stuck at 184 for the 3rd straight week. I'm still watching what I eat during the day very closely, and am probably only going a little overboard at dinner if at all. What's killing me is that I've lost any free time for any exercise and that's obviously the key missing ingredient now. Rats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Middle Buffalo Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I haven't lost any weight in 3 or 4 weeks. I also haven't eaten well or exercised in that time. I have myriad excuses, but will keep them to myself because they are just that - excuses. Next week I'll be down 2 lbs as my schedule clears up for additional work out time. Not coinicidently, I eat better when I exercise. If Screech can do it, so can I. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Kickass Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I haven't even weighed myself. Im moving in 6 days and that's taking more of my time than anything else right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
