I started back at the end of November.

31 y/o, 6'0"

Started at 276, down to 260.

Goal is 200 by early August. Then I begin phase 2 and work on getting back up to 210-215.

1/19/22- 256 lbs
2/3/22- 249 lbs
2/15/22- 245 lbs

2/24/22- 241 lbs - gone from 40x32 jeans to 36x32

3/3/22- 237lbs- about halfway to phase 1 goal. Been going over calorie budget but still seeing results. Getting more difficult to go hard on weight training.

4/6/22- 228 lbs. had a couple weeks where i went off the rails, but i'm back on the path of the righteous and didnt tank my progress. Still lifting 4+ days/week and seeing more definition/vascularity in my upper body.

4/ 22/22- 223lbs. I still havent been eating super strict like I was so i've slowed down a bit, but i'm not going backwards. Felt like i was just going through the motions on workouts, but i have been staying up later here recently.

8/16/22- 225 lbs. fell off the wagon for a bit, but didnt really lose any progress. Picking it back up to finish what i started. Actively counting all calories again and trying to lose the standard 2lbs/week.

5'9" 46 yrs. old Goal: 160-165
January 1st: 196.5
January 5th (weighed 1st thing this morning): 187.1

Really? That's incredible!

Great job!

Lot of water weight. Hoping for 3-3.5 lbs a week from here forward. But thank you.

Age: 40 (this month)
Height: 6'4"

Starting weight 1/3/2022: 216

Maintained a good range thru 2021 riding 12.5 mi a day on my bike as schedule allowed (262 days, 3200 mi) - will continue to do so, cut the sweets & booze from the holidays and lean up with some muscle hopefully

43 this month. Started at 171.5 and hoping to get down to 160 while working out. Then try to build leaner weight.

1/9/22
Age:40
Current weight: 277lbs
Goal weight: 200 lbs

41 yrs old

5'9
Goal: 155

1/1. 173
1/10. 170

Last year I cut to 160. Felt good. I think another 5 pounds will be closer to what I need aesthetically. As I get older I am amazed at how much muscle I think I have, but don't. I'm not 25 anymore.

I was at 199 this morning, so only down a couple pounds since beginning of year. I was at home with Covid all last week though, so haven't really started any routine yet.

1/1 199.8
1/10 197

Ok progress but need to do better about tracking every meal in MFP.

Inspiring!

Amazing results, man. Thanks for coming on and offering your support.

Great work! And I'm so glad that your username didn't check out with the picture you chose to post.

Thanks, and I 100% mean it when I say that if I can do this, anyone can! Happy to help out however I can.

In 2021 I had 357 hours on the bike equaling to 6,635 miles w/ 200k of vert. Despite, 2021 was fueled by cocktails and Cheetos leading to 1/1/21 weight of 174# and 12/31/21 weight of 187#.

6'2", 34, 1/11/22 check-in @ 183#. I need to be in the 160# range by March for a couple of gravel and road races. I also used my firm health budget this year on a Tonal. So I'm working in more resistance training and really enjoying it!

I've cut drinking back to social or date nights. Tracking calorie intake and macros. I've stopped ordering all the usual grazing snacks that tempt at night. However, totes got a Taco Lover's Pass. Mostly for altruistic reasons of a cheap taco for homeless here in PDX; but also because I really like tacos.

Check out Siete Foods - Almond flour Tortillas. They carry them at Costco - and allow you to make great tacos at home and are a lot more macro friendly.

I was born and raised on the US /MX border- eating tortillas 5 days a week - these Almond Flour tortillas are a great alternative.

My wife was doing weight watchers for a few months and making good progress... Then they changed the point system again and it pretty well deflated her motivation. Being vegetarian, it was already a struggle eating well without blowing out her points. She canceled her account and we pivoted our whole household to SkinnyTaste recipes. We just bought her Meal Prep cookbook and are starting to work our way though it.

Forgive me as I'm just curious and non-versed, is vegetarian food & preparation THAT unhealthy? Was WW overvaluing carbs from veg?

1 week check in.

199 now. Had to control input since I couldn't train at my gym for the last 1.5 months. Covid for me, then covid for the wife, then kidney stones for me this last week. Gotta start hitting it hard as soon as I get past this *****

Cotton farmer. He died from a widow maker heart attack.

You wouldn't think so but she was being charged heavily for protein sources - eggs, tofu, morning star meat substitutes, beans, etc. When they redid the points, it zero'd out some of the staples but then they cut overall points in half.

Interesting, thanks!

The point system does not seem to be a problem. I think I have plenty and all the zero point foods. It is just tedious at first if you are not doing weight watcher recipes. My wife's points were cut a ton with the new system.

sorry I'm late

Fell off the wagon from my (admittedly pretty crazy) weight loss in 2020, where I dropped 75 pounds in 8 months. Was too ashamed to weigh myself since basically October 2020.

The weight is back, all of it, and it brought some friends. Rejoining this thread trying to look forward and not backward.
