    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.

    CWW = 208.9
    LWW = 206.8
    Gain = 2.1

    I added more fat and protein to my diet and tried to increase overall calories to get things moving.

    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.

    SW: 248.4

    Loss: 4.0

    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)

    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.

    No idea of my current weight. It's hard to judge over here since I don't have a scale: I've been averaging over 20,000 steps a day, have been getting a number of micro-workouts in (including hiking down a mountain with a 30 lb kid on my shoulders), but have been eating a ton of junk. I feel very heavy and don't look quite as thin as when I left home, but I also am down a belt size finally which hasn't happened since i started focusing on my weight. Guess I'll find out in another week.

    Keep up the good work, everyone!

    Great job on another great week guy.

    Brad, hope you are enjoying yourself over there. Losing another notch on your belt is a fantastic NSV!

    Steve, wow! In the 220's. All I can say is Wholy Crap, Well Done buddy!!!

    We'll, I didn't win my money for the past month. My short summary is I have more energy, look thinner, lost that notch on my belt, and went UP 1.6 lbs. Oh well, sometimes it has to be like that.

    SW: 248.4
    LW: 235.0
    CW: 236.6
    GW: 200

    Gain: 1.6

    Keeping at it this month. All my other gains were encouraging and I'm hoping to combine all my progress with better calorie tracking this next month to get back on target for my 10% goal and win some money!

    This week on the eating program I'm following we eliminated sugar and grains and high carb veggies, should be in ketosis by the end of the week and hopefully burning fat at a furious pace.
    Let's do this and be losers!

    Howdy guys. My wife are in the process of moving. The last 3 weeks have been a killer. Pretty sure that is the main reason I've been losing weight. Packing 34 years of marriage and the last 22 years in the same house has been a chore especially with me taking care of all the little things that have needed repair or replacing. Totally spaced weigh in this weekend. I'll try and remember tonight or in the morning and get the chart posted up.

    Brad, losing that notch is huge. I went down one notch a few weeks ago and I think I'm a week or two away from my next notch. Fingers crossed.

    Steve, you continue to amaze. Below 225 - WOW. I'm just hoping to get below 300 right now.
