One thing about having extra padding, the wind doesnt affect your bow sighting so much. Im about 150, anything over 10 km per hr and my shooting goes to hell.

209.4 this morning. So that’s four pounds a month since I started this effort. Couple more months and I’ll be back to 2007 weight.

Late to the party here, but I started on Monday. Added ~20# over the past couple of years due to some health issues impacting my activity level. Having a junior hockey player living with me who needed high calorie meals for the past 6 months didn’t help either. I was 241 on Monday. Goal is to be back to my normal 220 by July.

Plan is to cut out almost all sugars and starches (sweets, breads, pasta, rice, potatoes, etc), snack on nuts when hungry during the day, and double up on meat and veggies with meals. And get a minimum of 12,000 steps per day plus some extra cardio on the bike.

Work travel will be the nemesis of this plan.

Just found out you can buy an entire case of ready to bake cookie dough from a restaurant supply store.

So I think I’m just gonna say maybe next year is my year. Best of luck to you all!

Bready stuff is the big one. A1C, sugars, lipids, arterial plaque. So much bullshit can be reduced or reversed when we drop the bread.

Good work everyone. I haven’t check-in in a while. I have no idea where I’m at at the moment. I’ve been living in a tractor or sprayer the last 2 weeks so I’m not exactly burning a ton of calories. I also only eat once a day so hopefully I’m not going the other way. Next time it rains, I need to step on the scale

Gaining 100lbs seems a little rough but with the right diet should be doable by hunting season

Just too persuasive.
I have the local bakery hold a couple of fresh rasied-glazed donuts for me every saturday that I am around

Hit my first goal of 215 today, down from 243 on January 5th. Going to work to get to 200 by 8/01 at least. This thread has helped keep me motivated, thanks!
