  • Despite a really crappy week, this morning's weigh-in didn't really show any significant change. Okay, splitting hairs, I think I am up 0.2 lb, but all things considered, not really anything I'm going to get worked up over.

    TWW: 427.8

    Reasons...let's see. Mother in the hospital. Moved apartments. Missed and poor meal choices. Back on track now. Hoping for better numbers next week.

    Still floating along with no loss. Weight bounce up a little, then back down. Work and health has meant less working out. Out shutdown should be over in a week so things may return to normal.

    It doesn't really matter too much as long as I get it before I post on Monday mornings. It's just if everyone waited till Monday to post it would mean me having to do all the tabulating on Monday morning. I do them as I get them on the weekend.
    Nice job on a 2lb loss this week.

    LWW 309.8 CW 313.2 With all the work I've been doing you'd think I'd have lost, but I am up 3.4 lbs right now. :huh: :grumble: Of course I've been eating like crazy all week and have had crazy sodium intake too, so hoping its just water and inflammation of the muscles. Will keep you posted. I don't feel heavy either I feel like I'm smaller this week, but the scale says otherwise.

    Nice loss Lacrolix. Lead us on to loser victory! :bigsmile: :laugh:

    I will start moving my posting to Sunday to help you out. I was 260 lbs this morning.
  • Alrighty, it looks like we have a great group of guys. I think we have enough now to help push each other on to success. Hopefully I don't forget to include anyone. I few more than I was expecting but I think I can manage it. Here is who I have.

If any of you want to give a little info on yourself as way of an introduction, I'm sure the rest of us will appreciate it. We will all get to know it other in no time.

  • My weight this week is 283.4. There was a typo in last week's chart. Last week's weight was 284.6, so I lost 1.2 pounds.

    I liked your format for the check-in there whoreheyR1, so I stole it.

    Decent week, keeping that downward pressure going. Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween if you have kiddos. Stay sensible with the candy this week guys.

    Alrighty, we had a great response this week. I think this thread is just what some of us really needed to get things kick-started. We had a couple of new guys join and I unfortunately had to delete a few guys that hadn't turned in any updates in over 2 weeks.
    CambellHendry is this weeks biggest loser with a loss of 7.4lbs. Way to go buddy. There are definately more guys losing than maintaining or gaining these last couple of weeks and that is fantastic.

    Gotta give a shout out to whoreheyR1, he hit the 70lb loss on his ticker. High 5!!!

    Blue - posted a loss (2 new guys, fryboy1002 & gashinshotan, I don't have your previous wks stats but you showed an over all loss so I put you in this category)
    Yellow - no change from previous week
    Red - posted a gain
    White - no updates received and in jeopardy of getting voted off the island

    I also added a column of the date I last received an update from people.

    Greetings Gents,
    I had a little extra time this morning so decided to go ahead and post up an updated chart. I had a couple of typos or late responses. Here you go.

    Holy **** I can't actually believe I made it to the top :D This topic really inspires me! Makes me hold myself accountable!! Cheers boys!!!
  • I would love to try and beat you this week, but there is no way I can double my weight loss. The progression has been reasonable and steady 12 lbs for Oct, and hopefully close to the same for November.

    Update this week:

    Last week: 255.30
    Today: 254.10
    Loss: 1.2

    I am thrilled to have a loss this week, had a really bad loss of control on Halloween! ..
  • Got 4 days. When I was in Costa Rica in August, I was probably 275 or so. I am hoping by Tuesday I am at my first mini goal which is 256.5. I am sure the 20 lbs or so will make it so much better for hiking and walking around. I am walking between 2 and 3 miles a day, so I am sure the hiking won't be as bad. This time I feel in good enough shape to white water raft. If you don't hear from me past early this week it's because I don't know if I will have internet.

    Itinerary:

    Leave Tuesday night and land Wednesday and get settled.
    Thursday White Water rafting
    Friday Massage on the Beach
    Saturday/Sunday Boat into Tortaguero national park (you can only get there by helicopter or boat) and spend 2 days hiking/exploring
    Sunday to Tuesday back in San Jose, drinking, recovering and otherwise sweet talking the chicas.

    If I can figure out how to post pictures I will. I have pictures from August, just curious to see how I look then to now 20 lbs lighter.

    Checking in

    LWW - 258
    CW -258

    No change

    Two observations - I laid off the weight lifting this week to rest my elbows. I have some tendinitis going there. So I upped the cardio.
    The second thing is, I had a lot of stress hit me at work and personal life both. There was a genuine urge to give in to stress eating and I was experiencing cravings I have not had in literally months. Thankfully, I did not succumb. However, I am sure stress related hormones did not help my cause.
