I need to step away for November. There is a lot going on personally and professionally. Hoping to join you guys again in December to handle the holidays in a healthier fashion.
Thanks for all the support and advice over the past few months. Good luck in November!
Hey, Erik. I get it. Sometimes there is just too much going on!! Did you want me to hold a December place for you, by transferring your weight over for November? That way you won't have to register again. Or would you rather see where you are come December and then register again if coming back is right for you?
If you could hold a spot that would be great. Hopefully that will give me more motivation knowing I am already in. And then i can give you and updated weight right before the December schedule begins.
Thank you
Sounds great, and will do!!1 -

Usually people puke on Halloween from too much candy!! I don't even know what prowler sled laps are, but apparently they are hard core!! Nicely done, and love the new profile pic!1 -

So without logging, you were able to maintain these last two weeks. That is a good skill to have. So this week, eat less and log more and the number on the scales will start to go down again!!1 -

I was bob ross for Halloween.
Prowler sled is a sled you put weights on and push across the floor. In my gym they have a 75 foot section where you push or pull the thing back and forth. Pure torture, but it’s one of those things that make you feel like a total bad *kitten* 2 -

That’s too funny. Having young kids I know most of the characters
Bob ross was a painter. He had a show where he demonstrated landscape paintings. He was super calm, had a fro, a baby squirrel and said “there are no mistakes, just happy little accidents”. I saw him when I was a kid and my kids love watching him. So soothing.

Good job on getting your healthy foods prepared for tomorrow!! The food part does appear to be your nemesis, as you seem to get regular exercise most days.2 -

I googled Bob Ross and I do know who he was. He used to have a show on PBS in the 90's when my kids were little. Phew...I am not feeling completely out of touch anymore!!2 -

Early is absolutely fine!!! Yes, you are in the same general area, so maybe just normal fluctuations. Have fun at your band competition. Have I already asked you what instrument you play?2 -

Previous Week's weight: 268.2
Today's Weight: 264.7
Alright! Down 14.3 pounds this month, woo hoo! Yesterday morning I weighed 267, this morning 2 pounds lighter. So weird how it all fluctuates based on a hundred different factors.
I’m shooting for 246 by the end of the year. At that point my BMI will be officially overweight, no longer obese. Granted, I have the big boned muscle body that breaks the BMI chart, so ill never be in the “healthy” category. At my lowest, decades ago, I was 207, had lost way too much muscle while losing weight and was super frail feeling. Still technically overweight then. This is now a rant about that darn BMI chart that raises my life insurance rates! Argh!. 1
