JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Dec 13, 2024) PW: 244.8 CW: 242.9 Now that's more like it!

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Dec 6, 2024) PW: 245.5 CW: 244.8 I'm actually surprised I didn't lose more since last week was the day after thanksgiving but I guess a drop is a drop and I should be thankful.

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Nov 29, 2024) PW: 242.3 CW: 245.5 Ugh! Weigh in after the Thanksgiving holiday doesn't seem fair. Oh well, I should have a big drop next week after a week of a regular diet.

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Nov 22, 2024) PW: 243.7 CW: 242.3 Susan and I are heading up to Columbus, OH for the University of Indiana (10-0) and The Ohio State University (9-1) football game. Our daughter (graduated from Indiana) and her boyfriend are joining us along with our other daughter and her husband (both…

Hi @Megan_smartiepants1970 - Susan and I will be leaving in a couple of days for the rest of the month in Italy so please excuse me from weigh-ins until after November 3rd. I'll be testing out the theory that a high daily step count outweighs pasta and gelato (results to be determined). My next weigh-in will be Friday, Nov…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Oct 11, 2024) PW: 243.5 CW: 242.9 Heading to Tuscaloosa, Alabama for our youngest son's Parents Weekend at college. We had hoped to see him play Ole Miss as he made the club soccer team for the school but Ole Miss forfeited. Our son is happy because that means they made Regionals but this is…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Oct 4, 2024) PW: 241.6 CW: 243.5 Sorry for not posting on Friday morning. It's been a crazy weekend and unusual week since I went into the office for a few days but other than couple of bagels (over a couple of days), I thought I did well … but apparently not. This week should be a little…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Sep 27, 2024) PW: 240.9 CW: 241.6 I started the week in a bad spot after a big weekend of celebrating so I'm satisfied that I made progress during the week.

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Sep 20, 2024) PW: 242 CW: 240.9 Big weekend coming up but I'm leaving for the airport in an hour so I'll have to share info next week.

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Sep 13, 2024) PW: 242.4 CW: 242 Down just a smidgen.

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Sep 6, 2024) PW: 242.5 CW: 242.4

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Aug 30, 2024) PW: 242 CW: 242.5 Looking forward to enjoying the holiday weekend and getting out for some serious walking / steps!

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Aug 23, 2024) PW: 242.3 CW: 242 Sorry for the tardiness - I was traveling last week (dropping off our last child to start college) and got caught up in the 'honey do' list and work-work this weekend while my wife flew to Ohio to visit our other son at college for the Ohio State Marching Band…

@Megan_smartiepants1970 - Please excuse me from the Friday weigh-in this week as we're leaving tomorrow for the University of Alabama to drop off our 6' 3" baby (last of the 4 kids) as an incoming freshman. We're planning to take some time on the way back to stop along the way and spend a little time in Memphis (or maybe…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Aug 9, 2024) PW: 243.1 CW: 242.3 Tough week at work so exercise, sleep and relaxation took a backseat but at least I didn't eat my stress away.

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Aug 2, 2024) PW: 241.8 CW: 243.1 I must be losing it as I know I added this last night, but I guess I forgot to click Post Reply so here's my update ... again. After 5 weeks of no gains, I fell victim to the Mexican restaurant sodium hangover. My parents wanted to celebrate the sale of their…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (July 26, 2024) PW: 242.5 CW: 241.8 Another good week despite limited exercise (too much work).

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (July 19, 2024) PW: 243.6 CW: 242.5 4 weeks in a row with no gains!

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (July 12, 2024) PW: 243.6 CW: 243.6 Well, at least I didn't gain any weight this week and I had a nice walk his morning - nice temps but a little humid so still got sweaty so time to hit the showers!

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (July 5, 2024) PW: 243.8 CW: 243.6 First week with the new Fitbit and back to getting my steps in. I think I would have been down even further except we hosted the 4th of July celebration with extended family so there was a lot of 'celebrating' although I did take it pretty easy. We're…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (June 28, 2024) PW: 244.2 CW: 243.8 My new Fitbit (Sense 2) arrived. It's been about half a year since my old Charge 5 died and I've been debating between Apple Watch and another Fitbit. It seems pretty clear that Apple watches are probably more durable and have more features but at the end…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (June 21, 2024) PW: 241.5 CW: 244.2 Not a great week for weight loss but I did meet my new boss and I feel like there's no reason to be stressed out over the changing of the guard. I got about half my daily step goal in this morning and just turned in points from a health program at work for…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (June 14, 2024) PW: 242.1 CW: 241.5 Argh - late posting this two weeks in a row! Apologies for making you send out the reminders. Very busy week and weekend but not all work - certainly some fun too. For fathers day, Susan is getting me an Apple watch since I've been without my Fitbit for…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (June 7, 2024) PW: 241.6 CW: 242.1 Sorry for the late weigh-in. Yesterday was non-stop and I had to leave work early for our son's club soccer team state semi-finals game (they were tied at the first half but lost in the back half of the game) so that's the end of his high school sports. His…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (May 31, 2024) PW: 241.8 CW: 241.6 I admitted to my wife yesterday that the reason I wasn't losing weight was because I wasn't prioritizing exercise and she was very supportive and understanding (given how hard I work and how little sleep) which was motivating but she also challenged me to…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (May 24, 2024) PW: 240.7 CW: 241.8 I haven't been sleeping much this week and it's taking a toll. I feel like zombie after lunch and having to rely on coffee and tea and then zonking out around 8 pm which means getting up between 1 - 3 am. Mostly work-stuff on my mind but also my parents got…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (May 17, 2024) PW: 243.3 CW: 240.7 Nice drop from last week but still haven't made up for last week's gain. We'll be doing a lot outside this weekend as our last kid's HS gradual party is 3 weeks away and we need to get the yard / landscaping projects done so I should get plenty of steps in…

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (May 10, 2024) PW: 239.9 CW: 243.3 High sodium dinner last night so I think this is an artificially high number but this coming Friday will be the test of that theory.

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (May 3, 2024) PW: 239.9 CW: 239.9 Sorry I'm late (such a busy life) - I can't wait until I retire ... although I'm not looking forward to getting older so I guess I can wait after all!

JimBoden3 Weigh-in Day: Friday (Apr 26, 2024) PW: 241.2 CW: 239.9 The weather was cold this week and dampened my inspiration to get out and walk in the mornings (it's raining now) so I'm looking forward to St. Louis finally getting into Spring mode. So while I remained mostly stationary this week, at least the healthy…
