Ok there has been a few of these threads in the past....
Time for a new one for 2017
Some of you may have seen my daughters post on facebook back
in January about our weight loss goal for the Moab trip....both of
us wanted to lose 25 lbs before the trip.....
On Jan 6th I weigh 201.2 lbs, last Saturday on March 25th I weigh
174.6 for a loss of 26.6 lbs. Kelsey is down 18 lbs and likes 7lbs
more to reach hers....
What you may not know is that I've been doing Weight Watchers for the
last 3 years. I was down 40 lbs in the last 2 years but was just kinda of
stuck where I was......our trip has really motivated me and I have rededicated
myself to finally get the weight off and keep it off. I'm less than 5 lbs from
my goal weight in Weight Watchers and to become a lifetime member so
it will be free for life. We can joke around all we want but I will be 57 this
year and I need to be around to watch my grand kids grow up.........
Basically I cut out alcohol, soft drinks, fast food. I mainly try to eat
more healthy and for me the key is having portion control. Recent
physical showed all my numbers have improve with blood pressure
being down and glucose being where it should. I've been watching
coworkers become diabetics and one recently having half his foot
cut off...not me I'm doing something about it!
241 Lbs about 3 1/2 years ago 175lbs

Last week i started a program with a buddy at work, kick boxing. struggling with the eating part. I know i need to cut back on my carbs , that seems to be my weakness. the guy gives me the weekend to cheat, but not to overdue it. i have a journal and have to report to him everything i eat. its kind of eye opening.
I do want to say one thing. i have LOL at videos of fat guys boxing. whole new respect. going all out on a bag for 1min sounds easy, but CRAP. by the time we r done, i spend 30 min just sitting on the floor attempting to get up, ..
hopefully i can stick with it. need to use Kevin as an example. great Job! hopefully in a few years i can post a pic like that.
