Total crap! I blame my wife this week :D


I bet she's gonna love hearing it's her fault. :lol:
I came down with some 72 hr. bug on Sat and fell off my diet a bit but I rebounded pretty good and almost got back on schedule. Maybe I need to get a wife so I'll have somebody to blame. #-o
Jim, are you doing any sort of workout/exercise or just watching the diet?

1/2/13 -- 292
1/4/13 -- 287.6
1/11/13 - 282
1/18/13 - 276.4

I told her not to make bannana bread. I broke down and ate half.... :LOL2:


No exercise besides walking about an hour everyday at work lunch time.

I slipped on the Ice Dec 17 on my way to work(Graveyard shift 2nd job), and broke my back...concussion, Fractured T-11....so I can not really move.
 
My status:
227.4 Starting weight
224.2 Jan 4 weigh-in
225.0 Jan 11 weigh-in :oops:
225.6 Jan 18 weigh-in :evil:

I don't get it - I've been good this week. So good that I stopped and ate McDonalds yesterday. I played 6.5 hours of volleyball - 4 of those competitive - Competitive vball is just under running for calories burned per hour. So it was like I ran 24 and walked 6 miles this week and still gained weight. :evil: :evil: :evil:

I can't move just thinking about this. Dang....hope you heal quickly!

Another reason why I hate winter. 10 years ago, I slipped and fell while shoveling snow and broke my ankle. I wish you a quick recovery.

Also, best of luck to all of you trying to loose weight, and hope your healthier lifestyle doesn't end with the contest. I lost 140 lbs in about 2 years. I'm back down to my pre-marraige weight and feeling great.

Wow, I start to ache all over just reading about that. Hope you're on the road to recovery and get fully healed soon.
 
Starting weight 190
January 20 186.4

Not much of a loss but after the flu, I decided to throw it all out the window with a Chicken Fried Steak, gravy, mash potatoes, butter beans, green beans, a roll, sweet tea and blueberry cobbler, the daily special. I was down to 184.8 last night. I'll get serious tomarrow. On a positive note, I'm still down over 13 pounds since Thanksgiving.

I am waiting to get my boat back from the church where it is part of the decorations this month. I got my riveter from Harbor Frieght and ordered some close ended blind rivets today. I have already picked up some cutoff wheels for my rotor tool. I need to start looking for some aluminum and then maybe I can start some minor modifications in February.

01/18/13 226.2
01/25/13 225.8

I don't think i'm going to make my short term goal of 220 by end of January unless I wear one of those rubber sweat suits for the next 6 days.
 
Slow and steady. I'll take it as long as it keeps going in right direction!

Starting weight 190

January 30 184

I've been all over the scale this week. Starting at 187 and weighing 181 this morning, Having an apple a day had it's natural effect so I averaged it out and said 184. I would say I am down 6 lbs since the first challenge weigh-in but more important, I am 16 lbs since Thanksgiving. Slow and steady.

I hope to start checking out out the recycled aluminum in our area, starting next week. I want to start making some minor mods to my boat.

New Year's resolutions.

4.1 off the mark but still going good. Super Bowl Sunday is a day off. :lol:

I'm disappointed with the amount of weight loss for one month, but considering that I'm unable to get out and do a little jogging, it could be worse I guess.

01/18/13 222.5
01/25/13 220
02/02/13 218.2 (bought a new scale with digital readout. It reads 2lb different than my last scale so readings from here on are adjusted by 2lb)

STILL moving in the right direction. I don't think I've been below 220 for many, many years. My pants even fit today!

Super bowl day probably won't make a difference for me. Not only am I not hungry anymore, but I'm not a football person. Don't think I'll even watch the game. Usually, the halftime show is intriguing enough to have the TV on, but this year isn't even a show IMHO. I'd rather be cleaning the basement...which I'll probably be doing.

If I had your numbers, I would be really happy. Congratulations.

Thanks, but if I had your starting weight, I would be thrilled and I wouldn't need to be in this challenge. :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
OK at the end of 4 weeks have went from 316 down to 302. Weighed in at the gym I joined a month ago. Doctor type scale was 2 lbs heavier than scale I had given my weight off of before. Also walked 1.55 miles in 30 minutes. 4 weeks ago I could barely walk for 30 minutes let alone at the pace I was walking today. Grand total since I began changing my eating habits in January 2012.. I've lost 38 lbs.
