Shrinking...

 Part of me likes it... part of me doesn't.  There was a time in my life I could have never imagined weighing 300 with a higher body fat ratio.   Then .. you get used to it.  Even when its way north of that.

Now ..I feel 'great.' .. but...  feeling like I'm shrinking... and it's messing with my head.  All my 3X shirts are starting to hang off me.  Pants look like shit after an hour of wearing.  I've got about 7lbs to go and then .. I plan on focusing on muscle again.  I don't want to lose it now, ... maybe I'm not.. but...  I miss that size thing.

Two weeks to go... 7lbs. Hell, I can fast to that number if I need to .. but.. not the way I wanted to do it.

Two weeks to go..........

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...
