    No head hanging in shame needed. I for one count a 1.8 pound loss in one week as fantastic. And, 8.6 in two weeks, Amazing!!! Well done this week.

    Memorial Day Weekend and paid too little attention to what I ate.

    CWW 203.7
    LWW 200.8
    Gain 2.9

    Back at it, hope to lose some of that gain by next week and then finally get back below 200.

    Welcome Josh!

    Howdy men,

    I hope you all had a great Holiday weekend and to my fellow vets, I salute you. Not a bad week. Only 4 guys updated this week and 1 had a bit of a slip, but no worries. JJ took the top spot this week with a 4 pound loss. Outstanding job!!!

    I am getting in my exercises and I am well below my calorie limit everyday, but still am only losing a fraction of what I should be losing. Time to start trying different things I think. This next week I am going to try and cut as much carbs out of my diet as I can and increase some of my leaner proteins. I get lots of fresh fruit and veggies everyday and have increased my water. Lets see if this works. I would love to see a 4 pound loss on my line one of these days.

    Here you go guys. I hope you all have a fantastic week. Peace out!!

    I am going to try something a little different for the next few days (2-3 days) Going to only have a "liquid diet" to attempt to cleanse myself of the holiday goodies. My sodium intake has been very bad along with the sugars and carbs.

    Think I will give that liquid diet a try myself.

    We are talking about beer, right? :smokin:

    LOL not going to deny I have gave myself a treat of a beer or two (since burbon apparently has to many calories...150 per shot REALLY?!?!?!?) most light beers are 95 kal each per 12 oz. but no I was referring to smoothies and veggie drinks.

    I went back and edited last weeks weigh in because the numbers just are not adding up compared to what I have in my reports.

    LWW = 203.7
    CWW = 199.7
    Loss = 4.0

    Looks like last week's gain was probably from all holiday chips and junk food. Over two weeks I'm down 1.1 pounds. Now to keep going in the right direction.

    Greetings and Salutations men,

    I hope you all had a great week. Dave holds the top honors this week with a very impressive 4 pound loss. BJ and Josh continue to steadily drop impressive numbers.

    Me? I am sucking hind teet this week. I don't know what the hell is wrong. At my weight, I should be shedding the weight pretty easily. I've been thinking of trying this liquid diet also. I'm just worried that I'll initially lose some good numbers but when I go back to solid foods, the pounds will just come back on.

    I am keeping my calories down and I am staying active. Haven't had time recently to get on the treadmill but have been working out in the yard or on other projects quite a bit.

    Guess I'll see what next week brings. With that said, here is this week's chart. Have a great week men.

    No worries on the 1 pound. You will kill it this next week and good for you an signing up for the 5k. Shower shoes are a MUST for the gym. Been there and done that on the athlete's foot.

    Yeah, i gave up drinking a few years ago, just had to.

    I can't IMAGINE try to lose weight but still drinking.

    Of course i wasn't the guy who had a beer or two, i had a beer or 20.

    Hey guys,

    I am sooo sorry, I totally spaced the chart today. I did some updates this morning and had planned to do the chart after lunch.
    Things got a little hectic at work and I lost track of this completely. I will try and get it up in the morning.

    Well, here we go guys. Josh 1 and BJ again continue to let the pounds drop. Way to go guys. I am going in the wrong direction and need to turn things around. Josh 2 had a little stumble but I am certain he will be back in the blue next week.

    Busy here at work so gotta fly. Have a great week.

    Howdy Men,

    Only 3 of us updated this week. 2 of you all did great. One of us not so good. I am embarrassed and pretty pissed with myself. I got to quit making excuses and just get with it. Wish me luck...

    BJ, awesome job this week!! Josh, 0.4 absolutely counts, nicely done!

    Here is the chart,
