  • Hey all. Jeff here. I live in Virginia and have been at this for 42 days. So far, lost 11 lbs. My short term motivation is a Spartan race I'm running on Sept 10. Really needed to drop pounds and add muscle. So far so good. We'll see if I'm ready. Good luck to everyone. Glad we're all in this together.

  • Start: 176.5 Week 1: 172 Week 2: 172 Happy to stay even after a big drop the first week. Expected to gain a bit since a lot of my week 1 weight was probably water weight. Drinking a ton (OK, a gallon) of water daily, so that's factoring into the week 1 drop. Now that my body has adjusted to the water intake, I expect a…

  • Day 1 = 40 minute walk with my doggie and an evening ice hockey game Day 2 = Not too much (recovering from getting nicked up at hockey the night before) :-(
