Well it looks like I'm the fattie! Starting wt 350. Hope to get down to 300 by December.

Bigbuttery.

Sad to say I am heavier then I ever have been, I am at 295lbs. I need to lose a total of probably 70lbs but I will set my 60 day total goal to lose 30lbs. Hopefully by the end of this I can come off blood pressure meds and continue a healthy lifestyle.

I'm at 202 and would like to get down to 185.

Research Ketogenic Diet if you are not familiar with it. I've lost 56 lbs since January and feel better than I have in years. My health screening numbers have improved as well. I could ditch the BP meds if I would exercise just a little.

I'm in. I was in the 240's and happy because I was strong, had some decent muscles/size for an old man and wearing the same size pants I wore in colleg 20 years ago. I had a complete tear of my supraspinatus (rotator cuff) in March of last year and after 6 weeks of treatment they decided to do an MRI that revealed the tear. Surgery was scheduled for May 31st and I went under the knife. Well, it got worse when Dr Cain got in there to repair it. Turned out that I had also torn my bicep away from the labrum. Recovery and physical therapy was very slow. I went from benching 405 to not being able to press just the bar. I let it get me down and last fall I allowed my eating to get out of control and I've packed on the weight. I've been miserable and finally said screw this im getting back into to shape. So, I started 3 weeks ago weighing in at 307 & as of today I'm down 7lbs looking to be around the 240 mark by Christmas. I really don't care how much I weigh so much as how my clothes fit and what size they are. To avoid further injuries I'm trying to be smart and not push my lifting to heavy but I will continue to train on weights but I'm spending more time on cardio and diet the next few months to get this fat off. Good luck guys!!!

I'll play again.

Today: 282#
Goal: >250#

Been saying I was gonna get in better shape so I might as well start now. If It wasn't for the natties I'd be alright.

Embarrassed to say...

Starting weight 249

Goal by 10/13: 225

you know, i never thought bought this challenge but decided to see what i could do by just cutting out a few things or cutting down a few things.. i weighed 235ish a month ago and started just watching my portions.. eating the same things just watching potions. i also cut out 90 percent of my snack cakes... i dont eat alot anyways but the kids would open one up and eat half and of course i would finish it.. the big kicker though i believe was sweet tea though.. my weakness.. i would drink a gallon at work ( i work shift work and they buy us tea bags that are entirely to sweet ) but have since quit and only drinking water at work.. at home i still drink tea with my meals and half tea and half water anytime else or all water.. ive dropped to 218 when i weighed yesterday.. now it is making me to actually want to try and lose weight.... thanks for this thread..

Going to weigh in the morning. Haven't got on the scale yet, since I stsrted

I erased my losses from August 1st I suspect because of this weekend. Back at it tomorrow.

Weighed Friday, got a good start and down some. Lot more to go hopefully!

Scale ain't budged for me. I do pretty good about 4 days a week. Problem is there's 7 days in a week.
I'd just be tickled if I could get down to 235-240.

I'm down about 10 ~ 13# since the last week in July. I don't have a reliable scale so it's possible I maybe up 8# too.

I'm probably failing. See thread about top o the river
