I didn't lose much this week, but I anticipated it.  I drank a lot this week, and didn't eat very well.  Sometimes these things happen.  I knew what I was doing, and simply ignored it.  It's all good though.  I love it when a bad week still results in a loss. I had set a goal of 275 lbs by 4/19/2008.  I won't be able to reach that now, but I am OK with it.  I am still losing, just not as consistently as I would like.  In order to gain some consistency in my weight loss, I need to focus myself mentally.  Honestly, this isn't surprising, since I have been focused on weight loss since 10/1/2007.  After a long period of time, it's not uncommon for attention and dedication to waver a bit.  As much as I would like to think I am beyond that, the fact is I am as fallible as the next person. Anyway, enough inane rambling.  I hope all of you are having a great weekend. Age:  37 Height:  5'11" tall. Total lost since 10/20/2007 - 54.0 lbs 2/9/2008 - 297.6 (-1.6) 2/16/2008 - 298 (+.4) 2/23/2008 - 296.4 (-1.6) 3/1/2008 - 290.4 (-6.0) 3/8/2008 - 290 (-.4) 3/15/2008 - 291 (+1) 3/22/2008 - 288.4 (-2.6) 3/29/2008 - 286.2 (-2.2) 4/5/2008 - 285.6 (-.6) This is me 2 years ago.    This is me earlier this week.

How is your weight loss going, Mike?

Did you fall off your weight-loss wagon?  If so, just climb right back on.

I think your progress is great.  I've heard slow weight loss is easier to maintain. I'm trying to lose some weight and gain muscle, too. I weigh myself maybe twice a week, and try to stay consistant with my workouts. I don't get crazy about it, cause for me, that's the first step towards slacking off.
