    Summer is Coming!
    - What a beautiful weekend! Great days for hiking...finally.

    Backpacking with 8-10 Scouts in July for 10 days and I need to be ready. (yes, this is at Philmont)
    Oh, and backpacking 6 days in (under the rim) the Grand Canyon in May!
    Age: 62
    6'

    Start 2/9: 203
    July Goal: 183
    Should be interesting
    2/16 Check-in: 200
    2/23 Check-in: 198
    3/2 Check-in: 196
    3/9 Check-in: 192!
    3/16 Check-in: 191.5
    3/23 Check-in: 190
    3/30 Check-in: 189
    4/9: Check-in: 187
    4/17: Check-in: 185
    4/24: Check-in: 185


    No change in weight this week and no concerns. I have adjusted my MFP settings to lose 0.5 each week. And have changed my "exercise" to be more hiking out on the trails. After any adjustment, it seems I need to wait for my body to tell me how good MFP and Garmin are with their estimates of what I need and what I use in calories. I have been eating most of my exercise calories so that I don't bonk out on the trail. No worries, there is enough time to make my July goal.

    Still making great progress. Glad to be here and thanks for keeping me on track.

    Hey everybody. It has been a struggle. I just started sleeping 8 hours a night. Maybe some of it was moving from nights to day shift. However, a few weeks in I was eating too much. I dropped drinking my green smoothies for lunch like I use to when I worked nights and tried Intermittent Fasting. It just didn’t work for me. I lost zero pounds during that time and had no energy.

    After a month of that nonsense I realized I was at standstill. So I just have been watching what I eat closely and pushing myself to work out after work.

    So far 10.4 lbs lost.

    I would like to join in. I am a week late.

    Sad story. I lost twenty pounds by strictly watching what I ate. It is not much for the whole amount that I have to lose but, it was a start.

    I definitely have an emotional eating problem so when I quit my job in December most of my hard work went away. Plus, for the past decade when I started packing on the pounds I worked graveyard shift which made it even harder for me to lose weight. Now I finally have a normal day shift job.

    I will not be summer ready but, hopefully it will help.

    SW: 285 lbs.
    GW: 265 lbs.
