Default Re: Shed a few, with some friends

I started Paleo about 3 months ago and I've lost 15lbs as of today. my size 36 jeans don't fit anymore and I'm on the last hole on my belt. I still need to loose about 20 more pounds but I'm super excited about the progress I've made so far. Here's a pic of me a few years ago and me last week.

Tomorrow night's weigh in will be the 4th, and I expect to be just under 20 myself.

That goes with any/all goals. You have to make them close enough to feel the achievement, but still understand and be willing to to go the full distance.

WHERE'd that N come from ?!?! LOL!

Well, it's been a long week and it just keeps gettign longer.

I was up 0.8 pounds last week. That's a freakin' glass of water, for cryin-out-loud!

We did okay this week, with a couple of splurges too. My wife and I needed to fall off the wagon Thursday, and then had to join friends for a Friday birthday dinner. Thursday was 'off-the-wagon' and Friday's was a healthy selection from the restaurant.
We did (with our friends) a gluten-free vegetable lasagna of Sat night; and Fritatas on Sunday (second one was from WW and was wicked good, with a hashbrown base). We took a long walk for most of the afternoon, and fed the ducks at the local Park.

I think we did okay this week. Just need to keep the salt low low until weighin, so I'm not retaining extra...

How's everybody else doing?

Maintaining right around the 185-190lb mark. I haven't been able to work out as much these last few months due to a neck issue. It's to the point now where I don't think it'll get much better, so I'm saying "screw it" and going running anyway.

I saw someone mention previously not eating past 6pm. In my case, I have to eat about an hour before I go to be, to help my blood sugar levels. Nothing big, but something higher in protein. Been doing that for nearly 2 years now and i'm keeping the weight off.

Sorry to hear about neck issues, they can be tough to offset.

As for the 6PM comment, everybody (and every body, LOL) is different.
I take a pill before bed, and needto ingest something to keep it from tearing up my stomach, so I understand.

Take a walk, if you have to. If you're goingto run, plan a short lap, and repaet if you're up to it. Don't overdue the first trip out. Neck issues can be tough...

Oh, I've been running for a while now. I was feeling like a sloth for not doing anything beyond the physical therapy. I guess I'd been using the neck as an excuse. It does hurt from time to time, but it's bearable now.

Good luck with your weight loss goals. It's not an easy road, but completely satisfying when you get there.
