    Maybe you should leave weight out of the equation this time and set a reduction in body fat goal or increased muscle mass. Or do some fitness program or do some heavy lifting etc etc


    First off you have done a fantastic job! Congratulations. I agree with above, instead of that number on the scale how about some heavy lifting you are definitely ready for the final cuts! KUP on how you move forward.

    Thanks to everyone for the great comments . I do feel much better now about myself and how I look maybe this year I will take my shirt off at the beach :)

    For the rest of this week I will still be pushing hard to end the contest strong then I will start working on toning next week .

    For those who asked I did lose weight fast but I think I did it in a healthy way , I ate around 2000 calories a day sometimes a lot more on those special days. I also ate things I enjoyed just kept it to a serving size instead of eating the entire bag of Doritos or Oreos and the many other goodies that have been within arms reach.

    I have been doing a lot of cardio and body weight workouts at the gym and days I don't go I play hockey as my workout
    Been trying to do something just about everyday

    Next week I will start working with weights and start toning a bit really would like to see more of my abs

    I started this because of a weight loss challenge with some friends that ends this weekend
    hopefully I win the $500 but if not I still won for myself. Also my wife thought I was crazy
    Because she was 3 months pregnant when I started lots of temptation but just kept it in moderation


    **************UPDATE********************

    I won the contest I was in I was down 20.4% of my weight 53lbs gone for good . thanks to MFP and all the great people on here

    Awesome work dude! You look great. I agree with the others. Don't try to lose any more weight, start building some mean muscle :)
