Just had to share, I'm down to 330 for the first time in a couple of years. I hit 380 and decided things had to change.

I lost 40 lbs and then hit a plateau, but my new job stoked the fire and I lost another 10 in the last month without really trying.

300 is my next goal, I'm re-motivated so I think it's doable!

Pics? :cool:

 

 

Keep it going! My former boss went from 280 pounds to 180 in 9 months when he turned 40. He went nuts! P90x, totally changed his diet, etc. Now he's a fitness buff. Does the Iron Man triathlon, runs a couple marathons every year. It's never too late to make a big change, and no goal is ever too big if you really dedicate yourself to it.

yeah, I hit 310+ a few years ago and knew I had to change, I got down to195 in less than a year and that was hard to do. 190 is supposedly the weight I should be to not be obese by Government standards...lol. I maintain about 220 and I'm okay with that. 

 

Congrats and keep it up!

Thanks.

Low carb has been the method. I haven't had a soft drink or sweet tea in 6 months and I really don't miss either. Also, for the first time in 8 years I'm at a job where I'm on my feet moving all day.

My BP is good, my labs are good, my Dr. pulled me off a couple of daily pills and I feel the beat I have in a looooooong time. I still have a ways to go but this morning it was awesome taking my belt to the very last hole.

      Great season regardless of what happens. From starting out 4-14 to ending 44-38 is incredible progress and future is bright from here. I do think we can beat the Heat and then win on the road against either Orlando or Philly assuming Embiid doesn’t miraculously return sooner. But if not, a higher draft pick is nice too

      I know a DT that's asking for a trade: 🤔 maybe a home discount can be worked out. Dan Morgan could create up to $80 million in space through restructures of stars like Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, or Taylor Moton. They could also include players like Tershawn Wharton ($18.6M cap hit) in the trade to balance the salaries. Carolina Receives: DT  Dexter Lawrence II New York Receives: 2026 2nd Round Pick (No. 51 Overall): A premium Day 2 selection that fits the for  Lawrence  after his 0.5-sack season in 2025. WR  Xavier Legette : A young, high-upside receiver who provides the playmaking depth HC John Harbaugh needs for his offense. 2026 4th Round Pick: Immediate mid-round value. 2027 4th Round Pick (via MIN): Future capital acquired in the  Adam Thielen  trade.  ----- Stone Forsythe* (another young player as a potential trade option)provides immediate offensive line retooling for HC John Harbaugh.    John Harbaugh's history in Baltimore proves he values draft volume over individual superstars.    Just my 2cents

      Moved to Tuesday, not Wednes because of scheduling with Flyers game or something in Philly. But I don't feel good about the Heat.  It has been a great season regardless.  Team just been playing so hard to move up since a bad start and just picked a bad time to get gassed.  It's like almost everyone is shooting cold at the same time even wide open shots.   Maybe atmosphere and playoffs kick off a spark.  I'd rather be in a series than a one and done though. The team has a good foundation to build on regardless of what happens.
