    @fh1951 congratulations on your discipline as you continue marching forward. You are the cut and paste master here at MFP with your “comprehensive” post sharing details. Keep up the good work.

    March 17 - Day 49 - Under calorie goal
    This week is the real week 7, last week was a miscue
    I began this challenge January 28, my target date is June 8, so a bit less than 19 weeks in total.
    I started at 212, my goal weight is a range of 179 - 176
    As of this morning I was below 196, most of the way to 195, but I don’t count it as a lost pound until I actually get there; so 196 - which is 16 pounds gone, or slightly more than 2 pounds per week. If I maintain this rate of loss I will reach my goal weight by my target date. I will reach my goal weight by my target date! 🎯🎯🎯

    @fh1951, thanks for details, makes it easier for me to privately cheer for you.

    Besides being close in age, we have something else in common. I started at 210.8 which is close to your starting weight. My current weight, 176.1 this morning, is close to your destination weight. It’s a great weight and you’ll love it.

    One difference, it took me 6 months where you’re only budgeting 19 weeks. Can be done when you’re a man on a mission and you are. Keep marching forward.

    As is my human tendency my hubris will cause me grief. I am not doing this alone. Without my faith in God and His divine guidance I am nothing. I am thankful for God’s power in my life every day. It is through Him that my life has purpose and meaning. One day at a time Lord!

    Just stopped by to see if my middle-aged fitness brother from a different mothet is still marching forward and you are. Still privately cheering for you. You’re going to have a great time at your reunion.
