Howdy gents!
I had another good week in watching what I ate. I also managed to get on the treadmill a few times. Unfortunately, I think a part of my loss can be attributed to a line of duty death department had this week. When a co-worker is murdered everything kind of becomes a bit surreal and you just go through the motions. It seems to be happening way to often nowadays. Enough of that!!

Not a good two weeks, mostly inconsistent eating on the weekends.
Looks like everyone else is off to a good start for the new year. Keep it up!

Nice job everyone! We got this guy's, 2018 the year of the Losers! I bought 38 jeans and slacks this week, I love NSV's!! I do not know why I get such a kick out of saying loser when it has a positive connotation, but dang I want to be a Loser!

Started a new book called “No Sweat” by Michelle Segar that’s a fun read to keep me motivated. It's only $2 on Kindle if any of you enjoy reading that type of book.1 -
Mornin' men!
I hope you are all doing well and have a great upcoming week. I did not realize that I have not posted a chart in a couple of weeks. My apologies!
Anyways, I had another good week and continue to go in the right direction.
Horst, I am going to download that book. Thanks for the recommendation.

Going to try to string together two weeks of good overall eating in a row. Small goals. Also, I’m planning to enjoy myself during the Super Bowl - I’m an Eagles fan!

I've always liked the Patriots and would love to be Tom Brady for a month. But, I'm rooting for the Eagles too. Patriots have soon enough and at least the Eagle logo looks a little like a Seahawk. :-)
I had another decent week. I'm really hoping too keep this trend going.

Only a few days until the first-ever Eagles Super Bowl victory! Tim, I'll accept that reason for cheering. Two of my best friends out here in Madison are diehard Seahawks fans too. 1 -
This week was a holding pattern. Slight gain but didn't give much back of the 3.5 pounds I was down last week and that makes me happy.
LWW = 204.6
CWW = 204.8

Trying to be good this weekend and continue downward next week. That will be somewhat easier because I am not a fan of either the Patriots or the Eagles. If I had to pick, I would root for Philly cuz NE has won enough titles recently.2 -
Hi guys - back after traveling around the world and a rough week recovering. Generally making some progress, through the past couple of days have been not so good.
Brad - nice to see a solid drop! Tim, you're doing great.

Out of 34 days this year, I've got in 29 exercise days so far - on track to hit 6 out of 7 again.
I head for Hawaii in two weeks, and I want to be under 225 legit.
Nobody snack out tomorrow - even if you are an Eagles or Patriots fan!1 -
Can't believe January is already gone. The months and years seem to go by faster and faster. Most of us had a decent week and I hope no one overdid it too much for the Superbowl. Brad gets a pass because his Eagles are now the World Champs. I didn't snack at all and was very good. I caught bits and pieces of the game but spent my time in the garage building a coffee table and some end tables for the wife.
Anyways, here is the chart. Hope you all have a great week!

Off-topic, but you should post some pictures of your tables!
I enjoy woodworking (not good at it yet, but I enjoy it) so I like seeing other people's projects too.
I spent Saturday in the garage with my girls building some shelves for over the garage door. The best part was taking my table saw out in the snow to rip a few 2x4s (not easy to see in the picture, but it started coming down pretty heavy while I was out there)
Ignore the mess on the left side of my garage - our basement flooded a while back so we're keeping a bunch of stuff out there right now.0 -
Uh Oh, you opened the door to woodworking talk and pictures. I love talking about and showing off projects. It is awesome that you were able to get out there with your girls.
BTW, I love that saw. I friend of mine had one and I really liked the way the gear driven fence worked. Very smooth and precise.
Sorry, but you asked for it, here goes with my pics.
There is another end table that is not in the pic. The tops are maple and the bottoms will be all white. Still also need to install drawers.
This is a bassinet I made for my new granddaughter.
Some Xmas gifts.
Challenge coin display and my mallet.
My happy place.
And my man glitter cup.

Love those woodworking photos! When I retire......
I was on a business trip, Sales kickoff, all week. And you can imagine the food and drink on offer. Feel pretty good that I worked out every day and I only gained a pound.

Off to Hawaii next week, and much fatter than I'd like to be. Aiming to cut at least a couple of pounds this week.1 -
I only had a very slight loss last week. No complaints though. A loss is a loss. Going to try and step it back up this week.

Way to go, Tim! Git-r-Done!
I cannot seem to get my posts to come through on the Android and the hotspot reception is terrible in this little pocket of hills I am in. I am still going down, but not as fast and part of that is trying to increase my muscle mass at the same time I cut fat. This old boy is bound and determined, but dang I do not remember taking so long to bounce back after heavy lifting. I'm officially in 38" slacks and jeans, the 40's are going to Goodwill on Thursday. I am not sure weight wise where I want to be, but I know that I want to be in 34" pants and I want a 6-pack. I'll be okay with an insulated six-pack, but I want to know I have one. No Looking back!
I have started a walking/hiking plan on MapMyWalk which is cool because it syncs with MFP. About 7 years ago I got very sick while hiking with a group of teens on a leadership weekend. I tried to do a 9.5-mile hike at 371lbs and even though I had water I stopped sweating and my limbs and hands swelled up and it was touch and go for about the last 4 miles. I am going back to that Trail (Panorama Trail in the White mountains) in June and I plan on kicking that trails butt this time. I have a few friends who are going to go do it with me and Cody my fur buddy is hanging tough (at 13years young) on our training walks, so hopefully, he'll go too. e started 5 weeks ago at 1.4 miles in 66 minutes, yesterday we did 2.31 in 41 minutes flat. As soon as it warms up we will start doing some hikes at a higher elevation to get ready for June.

Fantastic job Steve. I know you will kick that hikes butt in June. Huge congrats on being down to a size 38 pants. That is simply amazing!!!
Here is an updated chart!

Thanks, Tim! I am finding my way and starting a blog soon once I finish getting the page built. I am planning on getting my Health Coach certification down the line and hoping this sparks some conversations eventually. Although it's a bit warm for the jacket now.

Not much change this week, which I count as a win. I was worried last week was a fluke and my weight was going to jump back up.
