    Well.. that was a weird one... weight blew up to 328 .. then 331 .. wtf? Most 'bloated' I've ever been swollen with a crap load of fluids. Not a good thing. But, as I type this, getting back to 'normal' ... lil worried to get on that scale ... hmmm.. Got back from MX two days ago... time to get serious.

I can almost see the goal line.....

 We're back from Vaca' with the daughter... and a week + away from the scale.  Got on it a lil nervous this morning .. and .. BAM .. under 290.   About a 2 lb weight loss while gone.   Overall ate pretty good, but I snacked in the mornings when I normally don't.  Had a stupid amount of B'day cake and got into a sugar rush a few days ago!   Still.... felt pretty good.  Clothes fit good.. but .. you never know? One lil thing that probably helped is for a couple of reasons, no alcohol the last week or so.  Trying to figure out what messes with me riding sometimes and ... my daughter doesn't partake, so .... I abstained.  No doubt that helped with the weight loss a lil? Back in the bodybuilding days, I stayed away from alcohol for up to 90 days while getting ready for a contest.  So....   that plan may play into this a lil bit over the next sixty days. I'll do whatever it takes to hit 275. But .. as I said before.. I...

Finally .. down a size

 Finally .. down a size. Man ... didn't think I'd ever get to this point!  Well, actually thought I would have sooner.. but...... slllllllooooooooow going.  Well, finally back into the shirts I should be wearing.  The 3XLs are falling off me.  The 2XLs feel great.  Today picked up two pair of pants for the wedding a size down which is what I was shooting for. After the wedding I crank up the protein and build up the good stuff, and continue to trim down the belly.  Still have one more pants size to go.... Progress p.s.  Still a few pounds from 'betting' weight.  Might have to do some stupid stuff in the coming weeks.

Chewed off more than I bargained for

Made that bet as few weeks ago.  Yes, alcohol was involved.  I made it based on I was just at 308, and 275 seemed 'close'.  But, I was having some swelling issues and had ballooned up well over 330, so figured I'd get that under control and ...   easy peasy.  Hmmmmmm. Not. Well, I did get it (swelling) under control.  Feel great. Saw the Doc earlier this week and left with flying colors.  Even a reduction in medicine dosages.  But ......   my weight isn't what I'd expected.  As I type this I"m a notch under 319, but feel great.  I've been dropping a pound a day, but it's not realistic to think I'll keep that up.. so .. what to do.  I could do this via KETO simply, but I don't believe it's a long term solution.  Besides, always seems like 5% of that loss is always water and comes back the minute you have some delicious  carbs!  There's the old fashioned method I used during my bodybuilding days. Work you...
