255.25 : Last week
254 : This week
1.25 : Difference
Hello Guys:
Another 1.25 down this week. I am really concerned that I am not eating enough. Even a forcing myself to eat more protein shakes and real protein I am not getting many calories in. On the other hand I feel really good and am very happy. I did a call working last weekend on the symphony which was lots of hard busy work like setting up chairs, risers and humping big instruments about (think kettle drums) for a hour and a half and didn't ever break into a sweat. I used to be soaked after something like that at +300 pounds. Come to think of it, unless it is after a work out at the gym I don't sweat much at all any more.
I am almost at my first goal or check in point. I want to be under 250. I can sure feel the difference and have been getting a lot of hugs from ladies I know. Which I think is nice than getting hugs from total strangers.
Enjoy the Superbowl, I am not sure who to cheer for since I don't have any favourite teams playing - Someday Seattle will be there - ha!
I may not be checking in for about four weeks, so keep working on your plans and have a fun time today with the game.

280.2: Last Week 1/29/12
4.2 LBS LOST LAST WEEK
276.2: This Week 2/5/12
4.0 LBS LOST THIS WEEK
103.8 lbs Lost since surgery
152.8: Total Weight Loss
I survived another week! Worked my normal hours on Monday, then in training Tues-Friday from 7a-5p. (Did I mention I had a 1 hour commute either way so it was more like 6a-6p?) However, I was still able to stick to plan and post a 4 lb loss this week!!!
Friday I got to spend the day with my beautiful God-Daughter as her parents were out of town for the night and needed a sitter. My wife and I got to hang out with her until her parents came back on Saturday afternoon. She is the best! No trouble whatsoever keeping up with her, even though she is almost 2...
Next week is back to normal schedule, and thank god for that. I know my work didn't stop while I was away, so there is going to be a LOT to do when I return tomorrow. At least the week should go quickly.
SUPERBOWL: Don't care who wins, just hope the score goes my way for the pool I am in. I need the money!!!!
Best of luck and have a great week, my fellow losers!

Loss - 2#
down another two. Not bad, but not setting the world on fire. I need to remind myself that that is a good amount. That would be 104 pounds a year from now, which would have me near my goal in less than 18 months.
strong in the diet exercise department, increasing the weight training
keep up the good work guys!
The super bowl? well, all it is to me is a sign that spring training is around the corner!

Happy Super Bowl Sunday,,,,,
Well it was a good week weight loss wise, I am still very early out and hope I can hit the numbers a lot of you are hitting many months out from surgery. I am still hitting the gym during the week, weekends I have not yet found the time.....with the weather we have been having....... yard work is where I have been spending my time.
On the road again this week....I feel fortunate that I have gotten into a routine when I am on the road..food wise. I bring protien drinks and bars to help ensure I get my numbers in....and I limit my food choices eating out to seafood which also helps.
Hope everyone enjoys the game. Should be a very good game. GO PATS!!!!!

100 LBS Total !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just feel like I won the Superbowl of weight loss!! I finally hit that 100lb loss. I know I still got an uphill climb, but I am so excited. We took photos today to mark the success. I visted my Doc and the NUT this week. Iron was a bit low and he also wants me to add a B-50 multi. I'm hoping those changes will add some energy.
A note on protein that I was unaware of. My Doc said that you can only absorb about 25 grams of protein in one sitting. The rest just gets flushed out through the kidneys. I was putting about 45-50 in my morning shakes, but half of it wasn't being used. I now know better and have made the changes.
Have a great Week!!

AWESOME NEWS!!!! Congrats on the 100 lbs!
As far as the protein, my surgeon told me the same thing, that is whyhe doesn't require the higher amounts of protein some surgeons do. He said trying to get in 90 grams doesn't really do you any good, since your body can't absorb it fast enough. (My plan is only 3 meals per day, with snacks only if I am short on protein or need it)
Best of luck! Keep up the good work!
