Team Skinny (Feb 09) The month of Love (Page 13)

So it is weigh in day huh?

Well..... 214 on the nose. I feel guilty with that number. It's the lowest I have been in a while but I have not changed many of my bad habits yet and  i think it was just a lucky day and the result of the training increasing. Next week I want an honest nice weight loss.

Weight in September 3- 241 pounds......................... Current Weight February 19- 178 pounds

New goal six pack!!!

Oh my word, you guys are totally morbid and hilarious at the same time! Yeah, before Leah was so depressed, I was going to tell Josh that I couldn't decide if I should work out twice a day and only eat apples til the end of the month OR just go ahead and shoot myself before I get any older and fall apart!!! JK, I know you meant well, Josh, RIGHT?! And, thanks for the encouragement, saling!

By the way, I DID work out twice today...I feel GREAT AND ACCOMPLISHED! (I'll probably gain 4 pounds of muscle this week...which will only be OK if I lose 7 pounds of fat!!!)

I haven't really found it any harder, I have been up and down throughout my life but the weight I lost after having my baby came off when I was determined enough.  I wonder if it's because I've got more comfortable with my body as I've got older (now 46).  I have an older sister who has become way too comfortable with hers and if verging on obese.  I have a picture of her on my fridge to remind me what I could look like too. I agree with Sailing, you just have to keep a tight grip on it, now if only I could take my own advice.  

Cead, that's shite about your back, hope it get sorted soon.

WOW!!!

Nice work, that's extremely impressive

Good job on maintaining Comet.

Well heck I officialy have a cold this morning.  Been thinking about it for a few days, but now I have no doubt.  Now what did I do with that box cutter?

Very impressive!  My weight when I started was almost exactly where yours was.  I weighed about 240ish.  My long term goal is to be in the 180s or 170s as well.  I'm currently around the 205ish mark.  I hope that I can make the same progress that you have.  GL with working on the 6 pack.....

Weigh In

Day late but better late than never.

Today: 169.0#

Start: 173.2#

Guess this weight watchers thing and the switch to diet soda is working, now if only I could stick to my workouts.

Josh,  I am sure that will make her feel better....Geesh, stay off the suicide hotline.

Custer,  Things do change as we age,  I am 53 next month, but if we keep ourselves in shape it won't be drastic.  Metabolism slows and muscle does atrophy BUT that is if you let it.  Most studies have shown that if you eat right and do weight training losses are minimum as we age.  Our joints stay more lubricated and we can do things others our age can't (that counts for something).  We do take longer to recover from a hard effort,  but what the heck we earned it so take the time.

Would you rather I lie to her!!! You're going to be 16 forever!!!

Smart A$$!!

Yes, of course I meant well... By the way, how were the apples (you worked out twice today)?

Didn't quite get around to the apples...
