"Fatty Bear"

[Spicy McHaggis]

(so) I haven't lifted weights in about a month and my eating habits have gotten significantly worse. I'm like a fat man trapped in a fat man's body all over again.

I'mma try to get down to 180 by the end of March.

Just posting in case there's any sympathy losers* that want to get on me for some accountability, I'll do the same for you, but you need some goals for me to help you track. Or you guys can just ride and ridicule me if I don't live up to my goal.

* by losers I mean fat losers, not weight losers or "loser" losers.

you're all winners in my book, I just want to be thinners in your book.

That may have been the stoopidest thing I ever typed. In fact, 2,000 blessings if you can bring forth something stoopider that I typed, contest ends March 31.

and Fatty-Bear is what my 4 year old neice calls her 22 pound cat.

Oh yeah, and as an added bonus, all food questions will be answered with "blank sha blank, I'm in training." for the month of March.

Like

"yo klep, you want somma this pizza?"

"Pizza shmizza ...I'm in training."

or "M&M's Shmemenems ...I'm in training."

Soda / Shmoda
Cheese Fries / shmeese shmies

and shmoe on and shmoe shmorth...

Have you had enough sleep?
O.k. I'm in. By the end of March I want to have lost another 5 pounds. Cardio workout 4 times a week, weights at least 3 times a week. I'm not telling you how much I weigh. I guess I need to get off the computer and go to the gym.

well, you can report progress without giving actual start/end numbers. I figure I'll weigh myself tonight, get my starting point, then adjust my goal based on that.

I've been around 195 lately, so 15 pounds by March end is going to be tough, so if I'm over 195 (which I think I am) I'll have to push back my end date to maybe mid April (for my B-day) or just establish a new Mrach goal.

sleep though? No, not nearly enough, but that's a whole new thread!

 

[~HopeFloats~]

Ok by the end of March I will like to have lost about 7lbs..

April is another story but losing 7lbs by end of March is something I can do!

I have been sucking at getting to the gym have not been since Jan

The race is on!

Good Luck Guys

i'm on a diet - i lost 10lbs already just another 20lbs or so to go I'm hoping to lose all of that by the end of May -

Ooo! Ooo! I'd like to submit something for the contest!

Fat is the new hot.

No really, I think there's something wrong with me. If you were to stand 2 guys in front of me and one was athletic and the other a bit overweight, I'd be making eyes at the second guy. Is this weird? Am I backwards in the head? ..But more importantly will I win the contest now that I've blurted out this embarrassing secret I've been keeping since I was 5? =P

 

[eatenbylocusts]

I'm back from the gym. I could've easily made the excuse that I have a school assignment due by midnight tonight-so I'm patting myself on the back. I did some legs too.

So far I've lost 7.5 pounds since the end of October. I'll be weighing in tomorrow at work.

 

[kelco]

Ok I'm in. I've been workin out on a regular basis but I'd like to lose the pounds I put back on when I quit smoking. I'll be happy with 5 lbs by the end of March.

 

[Miles]

Dude. There's a guy in Japan with a 30 lb. cat.

 

[Spicy McHaggis]

Okay so 180's a stretch because I weighed in at 198 tonight. I'll do the bodyfat test later, but yeah, that's 18 pounds. I'll shoot for mid April.

Stopped at the store on the way home, stocked up on low cal foods, high fiber stuff, calcium, bottled water, etc and finished setting up my squat rack just a few minutes ago.

Good luck all. I know I'll need it.

Thats actually quite normal. I used to have a thing for skinny guys.

I think a lot of people like others with a bit of extra to cuddle - especially guys. In fact I notice I always get more attention from the blokes when I've gained a few extra pounds through lazyness or stress.

Although this year it was lazyness and christmas.

So anyways. I'm in - 5 pounds by the end of march.

And does anyone like the idea of posting a photo of themselves when they reach their ideal weight. I think that would add more incentive. You don't have to post your face if you don't want to - just crop it and post your body.

Or even posting photos as you go to show progress. I think that would be great.

 

[Macrina]

Well, I am trying to be healthier with diet and exercise... I need to lose weight, but I'm not ready to set a goal yet. I have an endocrine disorder that affects weight gain and fat storage, and I'm only just getting treatment that helps, so to be honest, I don't know what's realistic.

I want to exercise three times a week and do more of my own cooking (when I cook, it's healthy vegan food... and not half bad, if I say so myself).

I weighed in at work and I've actually lost 8.9 pounds now. Last night while trying to finish my school assignment I ate about 5 pieces of leftover Christmas chocolate. I hope I burned it off today at work. I went out to dinner tonight and stopped eating when I felt like I was full. Now I have something to bring for lunch tomorrow. I'm hungry-need a snack.

Yeah, and I can wear the same dress before and after. I didn't think I had a picture of me right before I started losing, but then I remembered my friend took a picture of me and the ex who got me started losing by breaking my heart.

 

[Evie1980]

Oh this sounds like fun - though I won't be able to participate too much due to my move I am hoping to loose another 33 pounds (15 kilos) this year (I think that is right). I lost 8 kilos last year (about 17 pounds)but I don't have set date. I am doing the slow casual thing of trying to make the right decisions about food and drink at the right time. Excercise is a whoel new thing - I hate the gym. I cannot stand it. ANyway praying that you guys achieve your goals. God bless, Evie

 

[beetlequeendiva]

Evie - you should still join, it doesn't matter how long it takes, maybe just set a small goal and work to achieve it

 

[JPPT1974]

I love to workout
Because I can't live without it
I have to workout when I am not PMS
About five to six times a week

 

[Spicy McHaggis]

BUMP.

Per my not entirely accurste mathematical therum, I am 20.4% bodyfat at 198 poulds, so about 20 lbs of "loseable" fat.
