First check-in: Monday Weigh-Ins (Week 1) SW: 213.4 lbs CW: 211.8 lbs I'm traveling this week, so I'm going to request a late weigh-in for next week, on Wednesday, 1/15. Good luck everyone!

One step forward, one step back; I am back up to 189 lbs this week. Not exactly sure what happened, as it seemed like a pretty good week... Hope everyone is doing well. -Cary

Ouch! Hopefully everything is alright with your finger. Fell well!

Hello men. Stepped on the scale again this morning and was at 187.4 lbs, a 1.6 lb loss. This comes after weighing myself earlier and seeing 189 lbs. Don't know what changed in 20 minutes, but I moved the scale all over my apartment to confirm. I'm going to take the victory and move on to next week. Be well. -C

Looks like I had a good week. LWW 193.8 lbs CWW 189.0 lbs Loss 4.8 lbs ! I imagine that a lot of this was water weight and unstable weight that came off easily now that I am back on MFP. Best, Cary

I don't know if anyone else disklikes the MFP interface for entering strength training. I sure do. I stumbled upon a website that I prefer that gives pretty fun feedback and encouragement. Certainly not a replacement for MFP as you cannot log nutrition and it doesn't give you calories burned, but a fun site for tracking…

Hi all. I would like to become active again, as well. I left the group at about 183.8 lbs--I was down from 210lbs in large part due to the support from this group and the accountability it provides. Now I am back up to 193.8 lbs. I haven't been using MFP for a few months, but now I'm back in the game. So, let's do this…

Hi guys-- I apologize for missing the last few weeks. I just hopped off the scale at 183.8 lbs. That is 0.2 lbs up from my last check-in, but it wasn't a straight shot here; I was up a few pounds and now I am back down. I will be back this Sunday for our next weigh-in. Best, Cary

LW 184.6 lbs CW 183.6 lbs Loss 1 lb. Glad to be getting back on track. Also, started a new hobby this morning...rock climbing. A few friends and I got a good deal at a local climbing gym and actually cashed it in. Not a great aerobic workout, but pretty good for upper and lower body strength training. Also, don't worry…

Hi all--checking in. As expected, I did not touch MFP last week and I gained some weight over my vacation. LWW 181.4 lbs CWW 184.6 lbs Gain 3.2 lbs Truth is, I was at about 183 lbs before I left for my vacation so the gain wasn't huge. Hope to be down again next week... Best, Cary

Hi all. This morning I was at 181.4 lbs (a 0.4 lb loss since last week). This is obviously not as much as I hope for for a weekly loss... I will be on vacation next week--while I won't have a scale to weigh in, I will have a computer to check-up on MFP. I hope to come back from vacation with some new plans t shake up my…

Sorry-- I was at 181.8 lbs this morning. So, I recovered from last week's gain and I am back on track. Best. Cary

Hi all. Unfortunately, I have to report that I am up this weekend at 183 lbs. I had a little bit of a weekend binge, so hopefully this will come off again quickly. Cary

Sorry to be a little late this week-- Sunday morning I weighed in at 181.6 lbs, just a 0.2 lbs loss. I'm felling pretty good about it because I wasn't sure I would be able to maintain last week's weight loss. Best, Cary LW 181.8 lbs CW 181.6 lbs Loss 0.2 lbs

Hi men. If I am being honest, it felt like I was having a pretty bad week--I was preparing for a big exam, and I didn't track calories for a few days and I missed the gym a few times. But, this morning the scale presented me with a loss. The number may be soft because I was out late last night and I am probably pretty…

Good morning, This week I am reporting a 1 lb loss. I am pretty pleased considering I have a big exam coming up and I haven't been very good regarding diet an exercise. Best, Cary LW 184.4 lbs CW 183.4 lbs Loss 1 lb

Hi all! Had a pretty good week as far as diet and exercise goes. I hit my halfway mark of 25lbs at 185lbs. I imagine the second half of my weight loss will be more challenging, but I am all geared up and ready. LW 186 lbs CW 184.4 lbs Loss this week 1.6 lbs Best, Cary

I just made these a few minutes ago--they are so good. Preheat oven to 450 deg Fahrenheit. Cut the the hard stems off the brussel sprouts, cut the sprouts in half on their axis. Coat the bottom of an oven-safe skillet with olive oil. Heat on med-high. When the oil is shimmering, put in the brussel sprouts cut side down in…

Hi men. I am reporting a 3 pound loss this week, but since I didn't report last week it averages out to 1.5 lbs/week, which is my MFP goal. I am 1 lb away from my half-way mark, so hopefully next week I will have that news. LW 189 lbs CW 186 lbs Loss 3 lbs Best, Cary

Hi all! I made it into the 180s this week, which was my goal. I am not quite sure how I did it, because I felt like I was cheating the whole time. I will gladly take the pound and do better this week. Best, Cary LW 190.4 lbs CW 189 lbs

LW 194.2 CW 190.4 Loss - 3.8 lbs I was hoping to break into the 180s, but I guess I will have to wait for next week. Best, Cary

Hi guys! I am back after a long vacation and I am glad to report a slight loss. It looks like I have recovered from my holiday/travel binge--I am excited to make this a happy and healthy year! LW 194.6 lbs CW 194.2 lbs Loss 0.4 lbs

Happy Holidays, Men. I forgot to mention last week, but I am traveling and will be away from the scale until next weekend, so my next official weigh-in will be the weekend of January 7th, in the new year. I can, however, offer a NSV--I looked through the deepest darkest corners of my closet and pulled out nine (count 'em,…

I am really sorry to hear about your family's loss. Best wishes. -Cary

Unfortunately, I have to post a gain for this week. LW 194.6 lbs CW 195.8 lbs GAIN 1.2 lbs It is is no excuse, but I am in an exam period and haven't been getting to the gym or preparing my own food the way I'd like to--in short, I am not particularly surprised with the gain. My last exam is tomorrow, so I will have no…

LW 196.2 lbs CW 194.6 lbs Loss -- 1.6 lbs Had a good week--hope to keep it up. Best, C

Great work!!!

Hello Men, LW 199.0 CW 196.2 Loss 2.8 lbs. I just added running (jogging) to my exercise repertoire, and started eating back most of my exercise calories--it seems to be working so I plan to continue. Best, Cary

I am down with that idea.

These next few weeks will be pretty busy for me--hopefully this challenge will help to keep me on track and far away from convenience foods. I am in for 6lbs, which should bring me down to 193 lbs. Best of luck, gentlemen. -C
