So today during lunch i go and visit my friends at their place of work( factory with a shipping department). I was on duty today so i had all my police gear on...boots, vest, gun belt. At the end of lunch I have to walk past their huge shipping scales. I stepped on it and it showed i weighed less(only 1lb, but less) with all my gear on than i did when i started this whole thing without. I am sure i was grinning ear to ear walking back out to my squad! I started this journey at 296lbs and weighed 295lbs today.

    That is cool! My question is....how much does your police gear weigh? It's gotta be 20-30lbs, right?

    OK... so you've lost your boots, vest and gun belt... great job!! Now this week lets lose the pants and shirt. :-) Oops...guess I shouldn't say that to a police officer!

    Great job!!! What an awesome feeling! I just got mine when I had to buy a new (smaller) duty belt. Keep up the good work! :)
