    This has been an excellent week. This was actually my rest week in P90X (lot of stretching and Yoga) so I did not work out vigorously as usual. However, my wife and I are doing a 3 day fruit and Veggie Cleanse. Today is my last day of the cleanse so I am sure if I waited to put in my weight tomorrow they will be even lower but my OCD forces me to put it in the same day every week lol.

    I CAN'T WAIT to have some REAL FOOD tomorrow!!!!!

    I hope you guys are doing well!

    These days the numbers haven't been moving much for me so I'll take it. Though it could of been better because I ate a lot more than usual yesterday.. more than usual being.. over 1000 calories of cake. Hm.. woops lol

    After a full week holiday I feared the worst, but no real damage was done. Hardly any progress also, but next week will be a more normal week (no more breakfast with fresh kaiserbrotchen and milk directly from the cow:-). So CW is 116.2 and LWW was 116.4.
    Succes you all

    No move this week - dammit!.

    After stalling for a few weeks then a drop last week I felt really confident that things were working again and I'd reach my 1st goal this week (under 300Lbs). Alas, not to be. Got to stay positive though.

    Congratulations to thomasvision taking his second week at #1! We're 10 weeks in now - a few of you have been on this forum from day 1. We've been working really hard and had a few weeks here and there that weren't so great. However, look at the stats! All of the consistent posters have lost at least 15 lbs and most of us more than 25! That's an awesome accomplishment in 10 weeks!

    So, whether you lost a few or gained a few this week, remember what you have accomplished over the last 10 weeks. If you have been logging it consistently with MFP, go to Reports and display your weight report for the last 90 days and take a look at what you have accomplished. Good work men!

    This week's topic: you all have listed a weight goal. Please share with the group why you picked that goal. Share with us 3 reasons why you want to be at that goal.

    I'll start: My goal is 210. I know that ideally, it would be good for me to be less than that, but 210 seems like a decent goal for this year. My three reasons:
    1) My family - I have a wife and two small children. I want to be able to support them in every shape and form possible until I'm a very, very old man. I need to get this weight off so I can definitely live that long!
    2) Myself - it's such an awesome feeling to be more fit, be rid of the weight I used to carry - it truly makes me happier
    3) So that I can participate in any kind of activity. Especially as my kids are getting older, I want to be able to run, jump, and do anything. Being at 210 (or less) seems like it will help me be more physically able.

    Alright Men! Let's make this a killer week!

    The 200 I chose was simply by convenience. It was also helpful mentally because it seemed reachable. When I was around 260 the thought of being in the 100s just seemed so far. I'm still keeping it as my goal, but whether or not it is final is yet to be determined!

    I picked my goal based on it sounded good to me and sounded doable. More mental than anything.

    3 reasons.

    1. My family - I want to be around for them. My last 4 or 5 physicals at work I had high cholesterol (220) and BP
    2. How I feel - I have had 3 knee surgeries and only have part of the cartiledge in my left knee. THe extra weight was causing near continuous knee pain.
    3. Mental well being - We went on a rafting trip in Tennesse last year. The pictures we bought made me depressed. I had a built in life preserver around my waist in addition to vest I had to wear.

    1) Years ag when I tried Bodybuilding, I went down to 215 and looked really good just not as lean as I would have liked. So I'm assuming that 200 would give me that extremely lean look I'm craving

    2) My wife has started dropping weight and looks amazing

    3) I have a daughter and other kids on the way. Idon't want to die before they have a chance to live their lives and have my grandkids.
