Shaving pounds

[sehad]

Yeah... I was never what you'd call "small" up there... now they're just huge. And yeah, hubby is allowed to look, not touch.

Great, I'm really looking forward to that one. The look & don't touch rule just sucks

This topic has gone downhill.

Mary, since I am the source, I shall attempt to right my wrong...

I started gaining weight when I was in-between engineering positions. I had gotten fired from my first job out of college, had just bought a house, and was driving buses for a living. Needless to say, depression helped the pounds pile on. My wife suggested that I start biking. She did not now the monster she created. I dropped about 15 pounds, and am now a cycling junkie! I hate gyms, so I try to keep involved with outdoor activities, and living where I do, that is not difficult. I downhill/cross-country ski in the winter, and bike in the summer (both mountain and road). The wife and I have always been good about eating healthy, so that helps.

I REFUSE to dye my hair ...
Instead, I keep it high-and-tight. Does a pretty good job of limiting my exposure of grey hairs to a few strands rather than patches.

I do the same thing. But the gray grows faster than the rest so it's looks really funny if I wait too long between cuts.

I actually started going grey when the hubby deployed... hmm.

WOOT! lost another 3 pounds by the way!!! :multiplespotting:

Can we have a scorecard of your alliases? That would be interesting.
:bio:

Keep wishing. LOL.

I'm at 247 lbs. and still back to a 3-day per week lifting and 4-5 day per week cardio sessions.

My plan is to be around 225 with the tight six-pack back in place by March/April. I still have some 'handles' around the back of the waist. Not my style.

 

[sehad]

six pack? I had one of those a few years ago. Looking for it again. So is the wife

 

[Dark Knight]

I used to have a six pack. Now I have two liters

^ My stomach is starting to flatten out again and my chest is looking a little firmer. We've been hitting the gym 3x a week and slowly but suring seeing results. I went into a month and a half tailspin when we moved.

Oh is good to be young. Isn't it VT? arty-smiley-048:

When you are young that happens. The time to see results is very short. As the years roll all over you that changes in a heartbeat.

I am losing weight VEEEEEEERY S L O W L Y. But losing anyways. That is better than the alternative.

 

[RIP - VTEnviro]

Youth is on my side. But at the same time, I was in shape and then slacked off for 6 weeks. That's different than starting from scratch. I just needed to tone up a little. Don't get discouraged.

Indeed!! I have started losing weight much more slowly, but I have also stopped drinking out so often as well.

I hit the weight I was looking for and now I'm able to run a mile everyday again. Haven't been able to do that since college.

Next hurdle...............The Perfect Pushup. Y'all have me afraid of this one

 

[Dark Knight]

:multiplespotting: This morning the scale showed I've lost 19 pounds. :multiplespotting: arty-smiley-048:

arty-smiley-048: "Yeaaaaaaaaaahh......I feel good....darararararara....so darn good....darararararara" arty-smiley-048:

In a bragging note I am able to run 5.25 miles each other day...it takes me almost an hour but I am doing it. I am way on schedule to my goal of shaving 25 pounds by December.

Now more than ever.... :bio:

 

[wilheldp_PE]

I've made it past my goal by 10 pounds so far (I've lost 75 in total). Now I've started putting some muscle back on using the perfect pushups. I may start hitting the gym for some more vigorous workouts later on.
