MfBarnes
220

Lost 20 pounds throughout last year. See if I can get it again.

Starting weight: 225
Goal weight: 205

Gotta get from my current 188 back to 170 or so.

Alright, I'll post up this time. Weighed in this morning at 214. Have been between 205 and 215 for about 18 months now, but I can feel it becoming more fat due to inactivity. Last year I spent a lot of time figuring out how to he a parent and keep a job and keep a wife. Not saying I have them figured out, but I hope to be able devote more time to getting in better shape. Still need to cut out some beer drinking, but I am way down from a couple years ago. Would like to he sub 200 for a trip in early April, and I believe it can be done. Good luck to everyone.

Current weight 258 lbs. Was down to 235 last summer then quit dipping after 35 years. Shot back up to 267 within 30 days and still working my way back down. I will be back to working out four days a week now that holidays are over. My daughter is getting married in March so I need to be back down below 240 as to not look like a gorilla in a tuxedo.

Want to be back to 235 by summer.

Well had baby #2 in October. Then got to be hospitalized for 3 days 2 weeks later, then baby had to be hospitalized 2 weeks later, so I've just been sitting on my ass at home since then. But now that things seem to be back to normal & the holidays have passed, time to start tracking what I eat.

Start back to work this week so at least I will be getting off the couch. Baby will start daycare next month so I plan on getting a workout schedule figured out.

My goal, to keep it realistic, is to lose 30 lbs.

I'll join. I started doing CrossFit back in August and weighed 321 when I started. I've since lost about 25 lbs and have gained a lot of strength and physical endurance I didn't have before. My goal for 2017 is to get down to 250 by August 1st (that will be one year since I started CrossFit and would be about 70 pounds lost in a year). Once I get to 250 I'll decide if I need a new goal or if I want to maintain from there.

My plan is to keep doing what I've been doing...eating 4-6 meals a day closely following the Paleo diet and working out 5-6 times a week.

I haven't weighed yet this year. I'm waiting for Thursday or Friday to do that, but I'll update when I do (should be around 295 or so).

Yes I did. When you go from a can a day snuff addiction to eating anything that won't eat you first to combat the cravings, you can pack some weight on. Lots of sweets and ice cream. Couple that with not feeling like doing any exercising and it was a rough patch for me.

I want to get back down to 230 and run 3 miles without stopping or destroying my shins. I'm currently 6'4" ~260. I think this is doable by summertime.

Also I want to go for a 400# bench my previous max was 365 a long time ago. I haven't lifted in 7-8 years but I went yesterday and was still able to do 335# without injuring myself so I'm pretty happy but sore as hell.

You can have some of mine. After 2 kids, I have plenty to share.
