Sounds fun and I'd enjoy taking everyone's money :)

My schedule, however... new baby July 1st, so chocco would be tentative, and black moose is a long way to go for a day trip.

Could always go to Chocco/Morris/AOP after/before AND/OR it's a $500 day trip if you think you've got it...
the weigh-in rides could be changed. Just throwing it out there on major club rides.  We have the distinct piggyback opportunity of already having the ride schedule out there.

I’m still holding at #245 trying to get back on it and towards my goal of #220.
Ran a 5k New Year’s Day or I ran a Mile and a half and walked a mile and a half. Yesterday I ran a mile and am working up to being able to run 2 and eventually a full 5k. But I’m planning on running at least a mile a day.

The key for me has been to cut out all bread, rice, potatoes, crackers and to have a smoothie or eggs for breakfast. Soup or Salad for lunch and Veggies and quinoas with some sort of protein for dinner. The weight has really come off by following a 1500 calorie diet.
You are really close to a keto diet. Look at that. Smoothies in general have a lot if sugar. My breakfast today was effs whites with cheese and bacon. Carbs for the day are around 35 grams and fat content is high.

12oz almond or soy milk unsweetened
1 scoop UCAN protein powder
Spoonful of peanut butter
Handful of spinach
2/3 cup blueberries
1” Frozen banana
Shot of soy creamer
3-4 ice cubes.
Makes 24-32 oz depends on if I add too much ice. -200 Calories

Snacks are 100 calorie packs of Almonds or Cashews. (2 per day total)

Never participated in one of these but I'm on a mission so some extra accountability can't hurt. 

I have yo yo dieted over the last couple years with little success.  I think part of my problem was setting unrealistic goals and then giving up.  So in August as I was approaching 58 BD I decided I need to do something and get in better shape before I turn 60.

Starting weight 8/25/2018 - 280 lbs
Current weight 1/11/2019 - 252 lbs
Goal weight (hopefully lower in the end) - 220 lbs
Started at 43% body fat and am currently at 37%.  Goal to be below 25%.

I'm following a ketogenic diet a little different than the mainstream "Keto" and much healthier.  More on that if anyone is interested. I'm working out 3 days a week, full body plan.  All barbells, no machines or cardio.

My biggest challenge in this is reducing alcohol intake.  I have cut back but still really enjoy my bourbon and tequilla.  It really puts a stall on the weight loss.

I saw this small, round, orange sticker discretely placed on the end of a popular #30 curl bar this morning:

"Put the weights back, you #twatwaffle
Dont be a lazy ass mofo
This includes you lazy #trainers"

(No pic, I dont bring my phone in)

There are 3 complete sets of dumbells all in a row at my gym, 5lb-110lb. Every morning this week, all 3 sets of 20s were gone and not in the section for free weights. The trainers either had taken them to their area, or people take them upstairs to the group exercise rooms and never bring them back.

No, just wanting to warm up with some inclined flyes

Not putting weights back makes zero sense to me either. Treat returning weights like it’s part of the workout.
