CharlesScott78 Thursdays PW: 357.7 CW 358.9 I hate weeks like this. Did not miss my calorie goal and it does not show up on the scale. :(

I food log to keep to my calorie goal. I am 6'3" tall, male, 60 and a desk job - so my current calories to maintain my current weight comes to 3015 calories per day. I target 2000 per day which puts me on target to have a 2 lbs weight loss. I am currently just doing walking for exercise because I want to get more weight…

CharlesScott78 Thursday PW 360.8 CW 357.7 Well that is better. Next stop sub 350 .... ;)

I can second this. I have been using the Vanilla Ice cream as a base for my shakes and it is really good. Seems to stay filling as well.

Hope everyone is doing good. If anyone has read my blog - about 16 years ago - I was almost 600 lbs. (562.3) I lost over 350 lbs and was in People Mag. Half their Size. I had went to a medically supervised weight loss program and for the first 12 weeks I was on a VLC diet. That gave me a kick start and I had lost 60 lbs.…

I don't know why, maybe it is my juvenile sense of humor, but I love our team name. It makes me smile every time I read it.

CharlesScott78 Thursday PW: 365.1 CW: 363.6 Not my best week scale wise. I hit my calorie goals ..... so it goes. I wish everyone a great week! Charles

It always seems to go on faster and come off slower than expected. :) I am a numbers guy so I track my weight loss predicted vs actual. The real number to keep an eye on is the 4 week average. Lots of things can make your weight fluctuate - your weight loss over a longer period of time is much more indictive of your real…

Unfortunately this is my second pass and leaving morbid obesity behind. I lost 350 lbs about 12 years ago (562 -> 220) and kept it off for 8 years. So that is what 7 hands :) This time I started at 414 about 13 weeks ago and I am down 51 lbs so far. Headed back to 220 and this time for good. Well it better be for good - I…

I had this done about 12 years ago. The results were fantastic. The recovery was not too bad - the worst part is cleaning and maintaining the drains. I was up and about in no time. Not any real recovery pain - I did and still do have some numb areas around the incision. I kept the weight off for 8 years and then like an…

It will work. A lot of people struggle with emotional eating. It is tough, but you can do it.

Thank you so much. I really appreciate the encouragement. If I can ever do anything to help - let me know. I am really glad to have found a fun group! Wishing everyone a great 2020!

CharlesScott78 Thursday PW 371.4 CW 372 Man that makes me crazy. Lol. I stayed in my calorie goal all last week. Must be the salt that did me in. It will come off - I have a love/hate relationship with my scale 🤔
-
I hear you - it is hard. After a lifetime of being overweight - losing and gaining about 14 years ago I finally had enough and lost over 350 lbs. I kept it off for about 7 years. I then lost my focus - I let life, stress and problems get in the way. I have always been an comfort eater. I gained back just about 200 of those…

that is awesome!

Fantastic! Congratulations.

ugh Weigh Day Thursday PW: 379.8 CW: 380.2 Of all the things about weight loss that makes me crazy is sticking to plan and having these weird water weight fictionalizations. Intellectually I get it but argh! :smile:
