Dang, didn't work out last week at all and gained 1.2 lbs.
Pretty sure I need to stop breeding to begin any fitness goals. On the other hand, that's the only exercise I get.
I gained 10 lbs with each kid.VanZandt92 said:

Finally heading back in the right direction.
Proud of all you guys. Motivated me to do something.
203. Stress eating and drinking back in full force. Hopefully hear about a new job in the next couple of weeks that should drop the stress levels considerably.

I know right? My work is actually tapering of but my kids are active beyond belief. Yesterday I was going to go jog but instead had to play trampoline referee.

Once they go to bed, I just want to pass out too...

And the 0430 alarm for workout is getting harder to not snooze past.
Trying to stay below the plateau from hell.
Still at 203.
So I started curtailing carbs about a week ago. Nothing crazy, just being very aware. Will still have natural carbs (fruit mainly) and the occasional sandwich, but otherwise no bread, pasta, sweets, etc. And I'll be damned...seen a consistent small drop.
This is why I'll never lose weight without really stepping up working out. I love milk and grains/bread too damn much.Ol Jock 99 said:

I cut out processed sugars and carbs the first week in may. Don't know if I've lost anything because i haven't weighed myself but I feel a ton better. My belt was on home #2 and now it's on home #4 comfortably. My night heartburn is just about gone as well. I've been eating healthier fats and proteins and staying away from processed. Still enjoy the occasional fruit but I'll save those for later in the day. I'm afraid to weigh myself because if I haven't lost anything I'll just get discouraged.
Memorial day into a week long work trip didn't do me any favors... up about 3-4 lbs to 238. Back on the wagon this week so hopefully I can eventually break through the plateau from hell.

Working out again but hopefully will drop some water weight soon

I've kind of been following along on this thread.
My brother passed away in September of last year and my weight ballooned way up due to the vicious cycle of some poor eating and exercise habits and too much drinking. I wasn't exactly my ideal weight before his death, but I put on 20 lbs in a short amount of time. I've now lost that weight and am back to what I was before, and am looking to lose some more to get closer to my ideal weight.
Started at 195.
Now at 175.
Goal weight is 155.

I started going back to the gym, has made a difference on how I feel and the weigth is starting to drop. I just need to avoid the late work nights followed by stress eating with deadlines.
248 as of this morning. The scale is moving slower but clothes are continuously getting bigger. 33 more pounds to goal. Hoping to hit it by September 1st.
Started officially in mid May. Eating clean and exercising. Stopped alcohol also. Started at 237.5. At 222 now. First 15 came off easy and quick. Now I have to pay my dues even more to get the last 12 off. Goal of 210. Got back on my road bike last week. Gonna take a few weeks to get my sore ass back in shape sitting on that little seat. Gotta get the legs back in shape too. Slowly but surely now.
10 pounds down finally
So I have been off this thread for a bit but felt I needed to provide an update.
After bouncing up to 226 in April, I decided to go to my doc for full physical and discussion around weight management.
Least to say, he found some issues in the way I was going about it and some other goings on.
Since the visit, I am down 10 pounds(was 13 but damn vacation), and continuing to head in the right direction, with some changes.
So the moral of the story is don't be afraid to ask for help.

Anyone else not able to edit the doc?
Back below 200 to 198.3 today.
Up at 241 this am. Running and poor diet. Its hot so i know im retaining water.
According to my scale I was 231 on Thursday at 6:30am by Sunday night I was 239.8. On the road for baseball tournaments means I won't eat great but not 9lbs in 4 days bad. I am guessing all the Gatorade i drank to stay hydrated has me retaining water. Hope so at least. I am back to entering everything in MFP as of Monday morning.
Had you pooped much? Being out in the heat means you're probably retaining a lot of water and whatever food you'd had Sunday may not have processed out when you weighed in. That's why I always weigh myself in the morning after a poop and a shower.AggieGunslinger said:

Nope.
I'm at Fort Knox for a training class, and I took my dress uniforms to be altered since I've lost so much weight. Apparently you can reach a point where they can't take in your uniforms enough. So, guess who is buying all new dress uniforms?
I've been losing pretty steadily from Jan-May. However, I've been stuck at 193 for 4 weeks. I expected the losses to slow down, but I didn't know they'd immediately come to a halt.
I'm up to about 216# and it's bad weight so it's really more like 340#.
The rough part of work is done though and the CWS is over for me so I am all out of excuses. I'll probably be lazy the rest of this week and then ease my way back into a real exercise program.

Have ridden my bike over 3,600 miles so far this year. But have been slacking recently.
At your height, I find it hard to imagine that 216 is bad.
It ain't good right now. I mean I'm probably not in any real danger of having a stroke tomorrow, but I've probably lost 5-10 pounds of muscle and put on 15 pounds of fat. And that is making me even more tired and lethargic/lazy than normal. So it's cascading on me. But when I was working 90-100 hours a week and sleeping on the couch in my office, sneaking an early morning workout in wasn't a high priority.
Soon though. And baby steps. Salad for lunch today.
