Shed a few, with some friends

[.cigardude.]

Glad to hear that you're ok.

The main thing with all diets is to be committed and stick to them till the end.

It's mostly a mental thing.

I didn't know this thread existed. Last September, I stepped on the scale at 234.

Almost a year later...... Here is what I have accomplished.
Miles ran- 1176
Pounds lost-46
Current weight-188
Half Marathon Time- 01:51:14
36th out of 542 in 6.2mi obstacle course race.

Feeling good!

That's awesome. I wish I would have kept track of how many mile I've run since I decided to lose weight. Maybe I'll start soon. Congrats on the accomplishments.

Kudos Travis...

This is where I am at the moment.

July 12' 267.6 lb
Now Aug 13' 170 lb

I've been working my ass off for the last year, and even got my 6-pack starting to show. Every single day I do the following, and only rest a day in the weekend.

AM

- 40 crunches
- 20-30 push ups
- 10-20 leg raises
- 30 reps of 20lb dumbbells
- 25 reps of over the shoulder triceps extensions per arm
- a few more free weights moves with 20 reps at least

PM
- either a 1.8 miles jog at 9min/mile or 3.2 jog at 11min/mile
- 40 crunches
- 20 to 30 push ups
- 10-20 leg raises
- 30 reps of 20lb dumbbells
- 25 reps of over the shoulder triceps extensions per arm
- a few more free weights moves with 20 reps at least

Before bed
- 20-30 push ups

Sounds good, keep us informed!

That is SO true. I have to stay committed, and I'm doing it with 2 others. Working together, we'll keep each other going.

As for your routine.... you are a sick, sick man.

Okay, so I have my moments....
I was actually down another 3.8# last week!

I didn't realize that I was at 39# total last week!



But to make up for it, I actually did gain 2.4# this week....

Looks like it'll be weeks now, to make my next goal.
But hey, I'm not quitin' yet!

Slowly but surely. Keep it up man
