2026 Weight Loss Thread

[Speaks]

I always get a bit out of shape over the winter, generally ditch workouts in Oct and dont pick them back up until Jan. This year have only been home about 15 days total due to work travel so just getting started late.

Probably sitting around 14-15% body fat right now (6'2 165) and want it back in the 11-12% range so need to swap around 4-5 lbs of fat for muscle. Figure thats about 60-90 days max to do both.

5/20 192.6 -18.2

Only down .6 since 5/5 but 5/7 started kids spring break. Had a 3D archery shoot where we camped and ate and drank beer. Me and the wife had a one night getaway. Took the kids to Great Wolf Lodge. I finished that week up several pounds and I’ve been at it hard this week to combat those pounds. Next stop 189

Sunday weigh in day..

3/22/26 - 228.8, down 44.2 pounds in just a day over 90 days.

My wife asked me if I was going to post before and after self pics. I wasn’t initially because of how gross I look at 273 pounds - basically a fat blob. But maybe there can be something positive gained from it so when I hit my goal of 200 pounds or whatever I way as of June 1st - I’ll post a before and after pic. May be interesting seeing what 65-75 pounds difference looks like in a photo.
