Sorry I missed it by a day. The Last couple of nights at work got crazy. They have me on a new schedule where I have to cook and bring my dinner to work. And it's bin helping me a lot I get off at 3 am and go right to the gym I'm down to 306.4 my goal is 299 by 4th of July. I also started sprinting more and that's seemed to help. I'll post on wendsday cuz I want to be less then 505 by then0

Great job buddy, especially working those crazy night shift hours. I worked graveyard my first 6 years as a rookie patrol officer and remember all I ate was crap. I am rooting for you! My sprinting days are long behind me. Had to do some minor jogging the other day at firearms training and it kinda sucked. First time since the knee replacement last fall.0 -

I have no clue what I did wrong.... I ate good and exercised still gained 2.4 pounds ( really 3.2 because Saturday I was 283.8) So disappointed in myself.0 -
Howdy Men,
I hope you are all having a good week and are able to enjoy some Summer weather.
BJ, you have been doing so flippin awesome. I wouldn't be too disappointed just yet. Maybe you are retaining water or whatever. Give it another week and see if your body gets back in tune with itself.
Outstanding job to the Josh's. You guys set the bar. Well done.
I had a 1.2 pound loss. Not a huge amount but at least it's finally a loss in my column.
Here is this week's chart guys.

Hey guys,
Sorry, but I am going to be out of town for work on Thursday and won't be able to post a chart. Go ahead and post your updates anyways though.
Hope everyone has a great 4th of July.

The last month has not been good for watching what I eat. My daughter came home from college for a week and that entailed a couple family dinners - and then end of school celebrations and a week at a conference, so I gained 5 pounds which is disappointing after finally getting below 200. Anyway back at it.
CWW: 205.1
LWW: 199.7
Gain: 5.4
Have a great Fourth of July everyone.0 -
So I got my tatoo last tousday and could not workout like I normally do for 4 days. So I gained 3 pounds 306.4. But I work all 4th July weekend so no parties means no over eating I guess0

I think I took the cake this week. Unfortunately I also ate it.

Holding on for dear life at 246 right now.
Eating is way up, just been depressed lately. Not sure what is going on with me, but it sucks.
Job sucks.
At this point, i am just trying not to go back to drinking.
I might leave this group and shut down this account, i dunno.0 -

Hey bud,
We all hit these bumps in the road at some point. Some of us hit them more than others. I can relate to the feeling that things sometimes seem to suck a little extra. There are probably not going to be any magic words from me that will make everything turn around, but know that we are all here for one reason or another. We all have demons or monkeys on our backs or whatever. It doesn't get better over night. One day at a time. If it takes a little extra time, so be it. We are not going to judge you. Don't do anything you will regret in the morning or next week. No matter what you do though, fight the urge to solve your problems at the bottom of a bottle. You will only create new problems. We care about you brother. If you need to take a little break, we'll be here when you get back.0 -
I for one would like you to stay.....I know you already know but it can always get worse. Thank God for what you have and move forward! Praying for ya Bud!Holding on for dear life at 246 right now.

Apparently the heat has helped me sweat off a few more pounds. That and cleaning out storage, cleaning out the garage, removing excess furniture/clothes/boxes in preparation to sell my house... Either way I will take it.0 -
Thanks for the kind words guys, yeah, not sure what is going on right now.
I guess i have always gone thru peaks and valleys, but in the past i would just drink thru them.
Just gotta shake it off somehow, and you are right, going back to the bottle would absolutely destroy any progress i have made as a human being in general over the past 5 years.0 -
BTW, my eating has been garbage lately, but at least i can seem to keep my weight around the 246 mark.
better than when i was eating garbage at the 310 mark...0 -

In my book that is a definite plus. I've been eating garbage lately and have packed all my weight back on. Talk about getting discouraged. I have got to somehow figure a way to re-motivate myself.0 -
Hey Guys,
I'm not posting the chart early this week. But, I am gonna go ahead and post up a belated chart from last week.
Glad to see Tim J back and he had a good loss. Iowa Josh, I know you have been down in the dumps lately, but I've got to hand it to you. You still lost a pound. Hope things start picking up for you buddy.
3 others us really blew it big time with a 14 + pound gain. I am betting a couple of you will be posting some nice losses this week.
Again, this is last week's chart that I was not able to get to. Still planning on doing tomorrows too.

BJ Broxton Apologies for not posting last week, I misread the post about what was going on here. (To much fat has left my head, so I am now light headed....that's my story and I am sticking to it!)

Here you go- copied from my regular home page.
I think it's time for a "come to Jesus" moment for me and fess up some embarrassing and humiliating news. As of this morning I am 0.8 pounds heavier than when I started on here several years ago.
These past several months have been ruthless. I absolutely can't think of any excuses because there really aren't any.
I would like to think and sincerely hope that I have been able to motivate or help someone on here or over on my Men on a Mission group thread to lose at least 1 pound.
Today is my 1278 day on here. A great consecutive streak means absolutely nothing, nada, zilch if I can't even manage to keep one pound off.
Guess I'm just going to reset my starting weight and give this another go around.
To say that I'm feeling just a bit discouraged is putting it mildly. I hate what I see when I look in the mirror and just need to get past this.
Wish me luck.
Here is this weeks chart guys. Outstanding job to each of you this week.

Hey guys,
I am updating this week's chart. I go on vacation next week and will not be doing a chart. Hope you all have a great week and stay and play safe this summer.
Huge high five to Josh for his 3.4 pound loss this week too. All of you are doing an awesome job. Keep up the great work and push some of that weight losing mojo my way please.
Tim

Hey Guys it's time to fess up. I was cutting two manny calories. I was feeling like **** and my weight was going up and down like crazy. I tried to cut to much to hit my goal of 299 by the 4th of July that I stopped eating like I should and just dropped my calories to about 1000 a day normally I eat 2500-2800. I put. My body into starvation mode and was making my self feel like ****. So I gained 3 pounds this week but I'm eating right and am setting a new goal 295 by August 16th and 279 by October 25th.0

Hey Josh, appreciate the honesty and accountability. Yep, we are all trying to get over some hurdles here lately it seems. I have faith in you hitting your goals.
I am down 1 pound this week. Not much, but at least in a different direction from recent weigh ins.

Hey guys, today was my first day back to work. Sorry I didn't get to the chart. Doesn't look like too many of us posted last week and none this week. If I get some by tomorrow, I'll do up a chart.
