Nice job Brad! Tim hope you guys feel better soon. Dale, I'm with Ya, I came in flat, but ive been fighting a gout attack since last Sunday. I've juice fasted, I'm doing every home remedy and I figured, I'd post a big number, but nada.
Enjoy this beautiful spring weather and lets have a great week!0 -
Howdy men,
Terrible week on the scale for me. Also went to a 4-10 schedule starting this week with Fridays off. Now to see how much this affects my treadmill exercises time which is usually right when I would get home from work. Hint, I haven't done it yet this week

Looks like it's been a month since I checked in. Probably because my weight has been going the wrong direction.

Between gout and back issues I've been doing very little walking or lifting, but my diet is strong and I did make it yesterday, but I'm not sure I can move today. Have a great week and let's be losers!1 -
Good afternoon Men!
Steve, just one word, WOW! I thought I was having a great week and you still beat me! I'm betting you will pass that 100 pound loss here within the next 2-3 weeks. Simply incredible sir!
Dave, I feel your pain buddy! I was going in the wrong direction the last 2 weeks and was able to turn it around this week. I haven't seen the sun in what feels like forever and am in serious need of some natural vitamin D.

I've been stuck the last two weeks, coming in at the exact same weight both times. I'm still below my goal for the first month of my challenge, but I was hoping to have gained a little extra distance ahead of the curve by now.

I can't act like I don't know how this happened, though, I've been a lot less disciplined in the evenings than I was the first couple weeks, so I need to buckle back down. Thankfully I've kept just enough discipline to not let myself bounce back up!

A little better. I'm like Horstbc - good during the day, but let it slip in the evenings. Need to focus on that.0 -
Thanks Tim, you had a great week too! it's been hard not getting workouts in, but I am getting after it this week. Still would like to be as close to 225 as possible for June 1st.
Lets do this guys!

I was surprised by the drop as I'm trying to slow the weight loss, but I've stayed solid and the new doc, is cool with my continued fast loss.
Taking my eating to the next level, cutting out caffeine and as much processed sugar as possible. I've warned my friends and co-workers and a few close friends have promised bail money!
Let food be they medicine and medicine be they food.

Howdy men,
I hope you all had a great weekend! The weather has finally begun to look like Spring and drying out a little. I'm going to try and be a little better on my food choices this week. I'm eating good enough to not gain, but want to actually lose a couple of pounds despite not having time to get on the treadmill lately.

Today was the weigh-in for the first month of my challenge, and I hit the goal: 3% of my bodyweight lost. My initial weigh-in for that at the end of March was 250.0 and I weighed in this morning as 242.2. I don't find out how much I earned from the pot until everyone else in the challenge has submitted their weights too.
I'm putting 240.0 as my weigh-in for this week, because that's what I weighed in every morning other than today this week and I don't feel like picking the one day that was different and higher...

Hey Brad - congrats on doing so well!
I have been doing poorly - work stressing me out, still blowing it in the evenings. Getting enough exercise to keep the weight gain down. I *think* I'm putting on muscle too - stronger, and I feel chunkier in the chest and arms.

I was expecting to be under 240, but guess I'm going to have to knuckle down.

I don't know it happened, but I was able to drop 2 pounds this week. I work tomorrow then I'll be on vacation for a couple of weeks. The wife and I are going on a road trip. Going to visit the Grand Canyon then visit my sister in Tucson for a couple of days. Then we'll head to El Paso for a week or so. I'm going to be doing a bunch of work on my mother in law's house while we're there.
I'm hoping that I'll work off all the bad effects of lots of driving with no steps.
I'll get this chart up tomorrow. Not sure if I'll be able to do one the following week though.

Have fun on vacation! I’m up a pound this week but am also making it back into my workout rhythm. Still working to reestablish good eating habits, but I’ve been much better over the past month.

Nice job everyone and have a safe trip Tim. Try as I might I could not will that scale to move. Started my classes early on saturday and start my second job weekend after next. I also signed up with my health coach for another 90 days to help me stay focused and on track through all the stress.

Tim, hope you're having or had a great trip!
I've not been paying enough attention to what I eat the last couple weeks and my gain shows it.
Have a good week everyone.

I added more fat and protein to my diet and tried to increase overall calories to get things moving.
Dave, you got this and Tim, have a safe trip back.

Nice work, Steve! Dave, hope you've been able to focus more on your eating this week. Good luck.
I have until next weekend to hit 235. I hadn't been making good choices with my food after my first month's weigh-in, but I've turned it around in the past week and am getting close. Starting to believe I might win the money two months in a row.

I'm sick today (think I got strep throat from my wife) so hopefully I can power through that and stay on track. I don't want to lose my bet.
On another note, I bought my first impact driver yesterday and am pretty excited to use it to build a swing set for my kids sometime later this summer (assuming I can convince my wife that it's more worth it than buying one)

Thanks everyone for the encouragement. Back down this week. Now I need to try for two good weeks in a row. One day at a time.

Howdy men!
OK, I'm finally back and ready to try and step up my game. Been gone for a few weeks driving from the top of the country to the bottom and back. Did well at the beginning but fell of the wagon at the end. Been back to work for a while and been very sedentary.
We have the Memorial Day weekend coming up and I will be building a large deck at my daughter's house. The ground there is nothing but packed clay and rocks. Should burn more than a few calories setting those post holes.
Bruce, Steve, Dave, you guys are doing awesome. I'm ashamed of myself. Time to turn it around.
Bruce, you are going to LOVE that impact driver! Congrats on a new toy for you and now you get to assemble a new toy for the kids. Win-win!!!

Howdy Men,
Sorry about the long hiatus. Still playing catch up on everything. Hope I got everyone's info right. Here is the chart. I'll try and be a bit better in the weeks to come.

Steve, I love the difference in those pictures - you've got to be proud of that!
I hit my month two goal in the DietBet but barely. I really have some dehydration from being outside in the Wisconsin heat wave to thank for my success: I lost a couple pounds of water weight right at the end to hit my mark. My body success though is that I started a running plan on Nike Run Club at the very bottom setting (starting me off at 0.5 miles and already by run #3 this morning I'm feeling much less pain and able to push myself to 2 miles with a mix of walking and running.

I leave for a 2-week trip to Norway on Saturday and will be working hard to make healthy choices so I can hopefully reach my month 3 goal of 230 lbs by the end of June.0 -
Great job Brad! Hope you have a great trip and I'm certain you'll be hitting your June goal.0
