Howdy fellas, I'm down to 249 from 274 at my peak last November. I was down to 246, but I quit dieting for 3 months and gained 10 lbs when wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. She is kicking cancer's butt and I'm going to continue kicking my fat butt until it is trim again.

Still heading in the right direction, feeling really good and getting close to original goal of 225 by October but I think I will lower that some. Want to get as low as I can and still maintain strength, just not sure where that number is - maybe 210 or so.

3/4 - 242
6/26 - 221.6
7/1 - 221.2

Down .4 lbs from last week and 20.8 lbs total. Slow and steady.

Anyone biking? Ive found it to be better than running as far as leg burn.

 

[littlered16]

I started mountain biking a couple months ago. Primarily a social gathering with coworkers a couple days a week, but holy cow the cardio and leg workout! Definitely helps break up the monotony of carrying a pack around the trails solo. Great peer pressure to make me go on days when I'm not motivated. Guess I'll find out in September how much it helps.

 

[granite7]

Moving in the right direction again. Back down to 227.8 today, after regaining some weight.

Still some work to do to make 205 by September. I need to drop 2lbs per week from here on out to make it in time for my first hunt in September.

Yeah it’s a gain of .1 but I’m actually kind of ok with it since I’ve been afraid all week that last weeks weighin might’ve been a fluke. Still have my work cut out for me getting to 200 but I have some time off coming that’ll allow me more control of the diet and definitely lots more workouts. Keep at it and good to see the new guys coming over and getting healthy.

Holding steady but not making progress like I want. Had a life change the last month when my wife found out she had breast cancer. Caught it early and made it through the surgery so the prognosis is looking very positive. I will get back on track 61 days till chasing elk in the Gila

Still holding 240-242. Need to stop being eating somewhat of what I want and drop the carbs again so I can get some more weight off.

Good thread. Hope it’s ok if I join in late. This morning I was 189. That’s the heaviest I’ve been in 2-3 years, and I’d like to be below 170 for hunting season.

 

[Bld6159]

WOOHOO holding @238 morning/afternoon. Gotta keep it going to get into the 220s now. Over 12lbs in month and half.

Kudos to all you "losers". I haven't weighed in on this thread yet (man I'm just full of 'em today) but I stepped on the scales in Feb after my uncle and I decided to apply for a mule deer tag in Wyoming and I was 216. I'm 5'10" with shoes on. I spent a couple months at the local university fitness center using a stationary bIke and eliptical machine and chasing a basketball around the court most days of the week along with some calesthenics and was down to 206 fairly quick. Spent a couple more frustrating months at that weight and in spite of my desire to lose more weight and better my fitness level, I just couldn't get myself to spend more time at the gym or increase my efforts to break through the sticking point. Then came my MR Metcalf in the mail in May and the gas company mowed the gas lines through Cooper Hollow Wildlife Area just down the road from my house. Long story shortened, I've been humping hills with 40# of sandbags and riding an 8 mile hilly route on my bicycle every other day for the past 6 weeks, got on the scales Saturday morning to see 195. I was pumped. I'm not so focused on the weight thing as I am fitness in general but I'm thinkin 185 by October might be possible. Good luck to all whatever your goals and if nothing else, western hunting is a great excuse to get fit.
