Weird. If I measure my stomach AND my waist it's the same size

Since my peak was 197 since I've been measuring, I'm looking at almost ten pounds in the last month and a half.

The "target" line I calculated that'll have me at 175 by December 25th if I maintain an even pace (which, let's be fair, I won't thanks to the holidays and the difficulty in road biking in the winter) says I should be around 192-191 or so right now, so I'm a couple pounds ahead of target. Fingers crossed...
Sure, rub it in that you're doing well . Seriously that's great. You're doing everything I wanted to do that I haven't come close to achieving.

Excuse time..... I've been totally stressed out at my job which has been getting bad for a while but has hit an all time new low as of recently. I usually lose weight when going through stress like this but this time I just seem to be staying in the same place and not going anywhere up or down. I also think turning 37 this year is not exactly helping me speed up my metabolism either.

I still have a goal to be 175-180 at the end of the year but it's going to take me getting much more serious about this. I've been talking about going jogging for about two months now and have not gone once.

I think my main problem is using a George Foreman for grilling, that could be why it makes it kind of tough to cut on the top and bottom at least. I'll actually use the grill over my oven, see how it turns out

Cheeers
Not sure if you guys have it, but seriously try chicken breasts using Franks Red Hot for the sauce. Cook it super slow and punch a bunch of holes in it with a fork while it's simmering (with a lid on - very important). SO much flavor.

I've managed to get myself down from 187.5 to 183 - doing more cardio and watching what I eat a little more. Also - no more late night snacks - they go right to my gut.

For what it's worth, Pete, I was 192 this morning. Slacking off again, on my end. It's been a SERIOUSLY bad week though.

I just started lifting weights, going situps, and going for walks... I've gained like 10 pounds in the last month and I ate two lunches today... I guess it's okay as I feel healthier, but I'm quickly approaching the weights people here are trying to come down from LOL.

Went for a hard, but short (like a bodybuilding elf - catch the reference, anyone?) ride yesterday, was 190.4 this morning, so I'm back ahead of my target.

Not me.... I was 196 this morning. I'm getting to the point where I would be elated to see 189.
