Weight update [Apr. 1st, 2008|02:56 am]
Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry
I am involved in the BARGE weight-loss contest.  Not quite as big a payout as biggest loser :)

I was at Foxwoods, which normally means poor eating.

I planned ahead and brought a lot of canned tuna fish and some Kashi cereal for breakfast.  Even though other food has gotten at least marginally better, breakfast here still sucks unless you have an 8th floor pass on the weekends for the made to order omelets – and I don’t.  I really like CPK’s Grilled Vegetable salad and normally add shrimp or salmon to it.

So, after going from my starting weight up to 435 and staying there for awhile, I am now below 400 pounds for the first time in recent history.

Now if I actually start exercising, should be able to lose 100 pounds by BARGE (which may not be enough based on some of the updates).

Congrats and good going. And sounds like some people are losing a lot of weight this year.

Thanks.

And yes - some people are losing a lot. Someone who started at 270 is below 190 already, so I have a lot of catching up to do before I even get close - but I'm going to try.

Nice start. I am having a hard time getting moving with this, I did join a gym and have been trying to go everyday.

I probably have no chance to win but I want to at least hit the 10% to avoid the penalty.

Good Luck, keep going.
