Good job guys - yeah i'm down 6 in 1.5 weeks.
|
I'm in. A foot injury prevented me from cycling all year. That plus way too much travel and eating out has me at 200. I'm normally 180 to 185.

I have kept off the 80 pounds I lost since I began my weight loss journey on March 2017
|
I’ve walked 1,500+ miles since I began this thing. Burned 225,000+ calories.

that's great guys - i'm down 16 or 17, somewhere in there.

Anyone else on a regiment of diet/exercise right now? This is the time for it, man.. before football starts again.. :)
I am doing 60 days of training... eating less, drinking less, and tons more exercise. I started out on the 1st of the month walking about 5 miles a day, and now I walk between seven and twelve a day. Lost 17 pounds in 25 days.. definitely slowed down a bit over the several days.. I was averaging like 4.5 pounds a week the first several weeks. Started at 203, and I am down to 186. Set three targets for my weight: 1) 182 pounds (10% loss) - fairly easy and should be achievable 2) 175 pounds - my main goal 3) 168 pounds - may very well be not achievable, but I figured I should set a very challenging goal as well. 40% through the days, and 60% to my main goal. I think it is going to be slower loss and more work from here on out though. The walking may seem like a lot but 7-8 miles of that is on the beach in the morning watching the sun rise... not too bad of a workout.. ;) |
Checked the app and I've passed over 2500 miles walked since I started. Makes it more difficult when the temp "feels like" 102 degrees but I'm pushing through it. Got the experience from last year to help deal with the temps. Still trying to walk a marathon a week.

Trying to lose a little weight before the fall where there are a couple races I would like to enter. I would like to see how my running times react if I were about 135 pounds. Haven't been that low since I was 18. Last race season at my peak fitness I was about 150. This year instead of upping my mileage in the summer, Im gonna hold steady at a modest 12-15 miles per week and focus on diet. The problem with increasing my mileage is that I can't seem control my appetite when I hit 30+ miles per week. I can maintain, but I won't lose. I'm also weightlifting 3X/week to keep my fitness up. Won't build much muscle while losing weight, but I have had some noob gains after a long layoff.
I'm about three weeks into my diet. No alcohol, drinking more water, eating cleaners and counting calories about 2-3 days/per week. I started at 159 and I have set a weigh-in goal each Wednesday morning. I usually end up cutting a bit of water in the last 36 hours or so, but the idea is that it will force me to manage my weight more closely throughout the week. So for example, tomorrow my weight goal is 152. Im currently 154.5, so I will need to do a run tonight and watch my fluid intake to make 152. Then Ill drink extra water and eat normally Wednesday-Saturday (and get back up to 154-155) before starting to manage as I get closer to my next weigh-in-- which will be 150. This is the only thing that seems to work with me, so Im rolling with it. Not really a sustainable plan, but it should only take about 8 more weeks to get down. Then Ill increase my mileage in August and maintain 135 through November or so. Gonna break 20 on my 5k and 5:30 on my mile |

Got told that I'm borderline diabetic about 2 months ago and chose the "lose weight and pay attention to what I eat" option of treatment instead of medication with recheck in 3 months. So far I'm staying under 45 grams of carb per meal or snack (most times under 20) and have went from 248lbs to 231lbs as of this morning. I weighed 216 when I got out of the Army 22 years ago and my goal is to get close to that. Summertime on the farm so activity level has went up some but nothing organized. Will have to figure something for winter or else I will put it back on.

Timely bump as I need to get back on the bandwagon, been eating and drinking way too much the last 90 days
|
Yeah, but someone told me that pussy is low-cal hi-protein...

I pushed myself too hard and was starting to average 12 miles a day. Didn't pay enough attention to my body, and now I am nursing a heel bruise. Gotta take it easy for a couple days, and then I guess I will tape it back up and get back to my 7 mile days. |
