    Looking good man. I see you have the same thing going on that I do. I'm trying to wear out my old clothes before I buy new ones. I'm losing weight faster than I can do that, so I finally had to drop some money on some new pants and shirts this morning.

    LMAO... I sat down and read the whole thread. I guess I started this back on 6/17 and I didn't realize I'd commented already.

    Anyhow, went to the doc today for my 50 y.o. bloodwork checkup. My check-in nurse who I've know for 5 years hadn't seen me in 6 months. She was stunned at my weight loss as was the doc. BP came in at 120/70 down from 138/80 back in February. Cholesterol improved a bit. Everything else checked out great.

    Officially 234 today.

    I bought two pairs of 36W jeans thinking I'd be in them for a while. I was wrong.

    This thread is good for me. Just another way to keep me honest I guess. I'll keep posting weekly.

    It's been a stressful week, but I've managed to control my urges and not stress eat.

    A week ago I was 234 at my morning weigh in. I hit a low of 230.5 on Thursday. Official weigh in this morning was 231.5. That 2.5# loss this week is right where I want to be.

    We did go tour the local community Athletic Club, but it was not a good match for what we wanted.

    So now I'm going to go check out a place called "Retro Fitness" that is on the way home from work. The Anytime Fitness is also an option I guess but I'm ready for something new.

    What. The. Flock of birds.

    Oh, believe me, I know why, I just went and looked in the mirror for who's responsible. Not excuses, reasons: Not going to the gym (had flu last week, out two days of work, flat on my ass the whole time) wife out of town which means I am off the leash, eating like a a hole.

    Still. I am still here. One day at a time.

    Had symptoms of "atypical", AKA "walking" pneumonia. Stayed home from work Wednesday, went to doc on Thursday, lungs clear, "just" a viral cold.

    Howsomever, despite having returned from an 8-night, 7-day cruise on Sunday, I was up all of one pound from May, so I figure that's... well, not "great" but at least OK.

    Pro tip. - wear a shirt under. Velcro and buckles are shit against skin

    Actually don’t. Just avoid the old repurposed plate carrier path and get this purpose built unit.

    265 and need to get to 230, I would like to get to 210, but that might be a bit much to shoot for at first.
