Hi! In a craptastic mood today - so I thought I'd give myself a little kick in the butt by reminding ME how far I've come.

Started Jan 14 on MFP @ 209 lbs 5'6"

2011-02-25_11-13-42_880.jpg

This was taken 20 or so days ago when I hit 179

2011-06-08_07-43-43_538.jpg

I've been losing about 1.5 lbs a week - the last 20 or so days have stalled out but, meh what can ya do about it? I work out pretty much every single day, running and strength training........I watch what I eat, but do enjoy CARBS! Beer (on the weekends) and YES, I eat my exercise calories.

    I haven't read what other's have posted but keep in mind as far as your weight gain that muscle weighs more than fat so if your strength training and not seeing any weight loss then that's not a bad thing it just means your building more muscle.

    I'm a weekend beer lover too, having that frothy glass is a nice treat to me now and I do look forward to it and enjoy it more.
