Agreed. I'd love to work with a professional that can give me the a better estimate, but without that, I'll probably have to keep using the "poke/pinch" method, where I flex my muscles, poke, and keep burning weight until the poke hits solid muscle instead of softness. Right now, I still have the "soft result" in the gut…

I have regular yearly checkups, and my doctor will be quite happy with the weight loss when I see them next week, what I'm wondering is will they be able to give me this "weight target"? (I've never had a caliper/tape or any other type of weight evaluation done). Health isn't the question here, I'm in a mode where I want…

Thanks for all the info, everyone. I very much appreciate the feedback.

Agreed. I'm way good on the weight loss and calorie work, but I don't drink water. But now that I've seen so many of these "add tons of water and get that extra "boost" to your weight loss" things I was thinking of it from the perspective that if I can burn an extra handful of calories because I add pure water to my diet…

Are you certain about that, though? Say a typical light beer, 90 calories is 97% water (which I believe is somewhat accurate), and you consume 8 of them (regardless of the moral/body negative impacts *grin*), would that be like getting your 8+ glasses of water?
