Did U get fat this last winter?

[Hoosier]

For you guys that are serious about losing some weight, I highly recommend you check out the book "It starts with food". I did this program for 30 days and dropped 14 lbs. I feel 100 times better. I ate like a horse and did not exercise at all. Basically you eliminate all processed foods from your diet for 30 days. Also no grains, sugar, or dairy. You eat nothing but meat, fish, eggs, and vegetables. It takes some discipline and some planning but its doable. It has really opened my eyes to all the crap we eat and the insane amount of health problems that are being caused by it.

The program is called "The whole 30", and it's not one of those fad diet scams. You don't buy anything from them. (except the book)

For another serious eye opener, check out the movie "Food Inc."

That's interesting. I will take a look at that book

243.2, down 1.8. Fine with me since I really just made better choices about what to eat and when. Still had a ton of Easter candy and other non diet things. Just want to take it slow and enjoy the things I always have, but like I said, just make better choices about how much and when. Thinking of you guys helped this week to do those things too.

I totally forgot to weigh in but I think I over all did well for the week. Back to work now so calories in increased greatly and my snacks are way down, looking to weigh in at 208 but will report tomorrow morning

Haven't your britches always been a bit bigger than what you could fill? You lost weight this winter because you went where no Indy has ever gone before! LOL. Keep it up and next winter you will feel even better behind the bars!

I got my cross bike tonight out of the basement of my old house ad need to tune it up but by the weekend it ought to be ready for some miles. May try and do a back pack trip to copper harbor and back in late July. If anyone interested and wants to ride along, LMK.

Also bought a big family sized box of Raisin Bran for my evening snack which I really do love and am totally satisfied eating so now look out guys. I'm gonna make it happen!

According to my scale I gained 3 lbs,,cannot be right,,gotta get a new scale. The scale we have is a health-o-meter and caoot replace batteries,,so they say but has been dim and takes 5 tries before you get a read out.

just caught that,,,it hurt! My new scale arrived today but I did not weigh in and wont till Mon.

 

[garyl62]

243.6, up 4/10ths. Was a little surprised at this. Can't say I expected to drop a lot, but really thought I made some pretty decent choices, especially over the weekend. Starting to wonder if a mid week weigh in check for me is something I should do to be sure I'm on track...

 

[lenny]

same here, I have been eating considerable less and not seeing results yet. At least I have a new scale and today I weighed in at 210.6

I will weigh 208 next Mon, FACT!

 

[onlypolar4me]

so,so week for me, 244.5 so I did manage .5 down thankful for that.

[garyl62]

241.8. That's down 1.8. Was a nice surprise as I figured I had not done much this week. Maybe some of my "Better choices" are becoming less memorable, but regardless, this is the slow but sure progress I'm hoping will continue.

 

[lenny]

I couldn't post this AM something was wrong with site or my PC but I weighed in at 207.4 and am I ever happy! So far we are all making progress and that's a great. Let's stay fired up to motivate each other. I wanna be 206 next Mon!

 

[onlypolar4me]

240.5 this morning, down 4, yes!
Got back on the treadmill a few mornings, ate better(less in other words) and my wife said she
is trying to lose also so now if I don't feel like having much supper I don't feel bad(I do the cooking)
