I like having things to look at when pushing through last set or last mile. My true motivation is to make sure I’m on this earth as long as possible. My youngest is finishing his last year of HS baseball. Assuming I have grandkids one day I want to be around to see them play.This type of thing is actually really helpful.

My wife came home with the same massive thing of croissants from Costco today. It is tough!
Stay strong. The loaf of sourdough was a bit tougher for me. My wife made bacon this morning and I came down at 2 starving and wanted a BLT so bad. At this point I don’t want to waste a cheat meal on an afternoon lunch though.My wife came home with the same massive thing of croissants from Costco today. It is tough!
I hop on the scale every week or two, only because it's there. I'm three weeks into the new cross-fit gym. Most weeks I go 3x week. Some twice but go to Planet Fitness with my wife. Plus yard work season has kicked in, so push mowing every 5 days. I've really focused on eating protein, cutting out processed foods.She also continues to remind me that the scale is a POS and the number means nothing, it's about losing fat and gaining muscle, we are only using the scale as a guide but the actual number is trash and we have no "goal weight", just a goal body.
This is awesome to hear. I'm 44 and started taking this seriously when I saw a 260 on the scale one day. Really about a year and half ago. Couldn't keep up with my kids and was winded all the time. Lost almost 40 pounds real quick. Mostly diet and moderate exercise The last 20 were a bit harder. Tried keto. Tried intermittent fasting. Tried exercising every day. A few weeks back I saw numbers under 200 for the first time since freshman year of college.New to this thread. I'm about to turn 57 yrs old, and started my weight loss and fitness journey in earnest last August starting at 240 pounds. I started out really trying to stick to keto but it morphed into more of a low carb and portion size type diet, paired with heavy lifting at the gym 3x per week and walking. My goal is 190 (what I weighed when I finished graduate school in 1991). I'm already at my marriage weight at 200. It has been surprisingly easy, and it's amazing how the golf game improves when I'm stronger and not having to swing around my former gut...
Cheers
5/1 - 267. Down 23 lbs. My math in last month's post was totally off (originally posted 269 goal) and I blame the Syracuse City School District for it. The 10% goal is actually 261 (started 290) so I still have a little more to hit it. Definitely way ahead of pace though. I haven't been under 270 in a long time... plan on being in the 250's by Ballyhack.No April Fools joke here..
4/1 - 272. Down 18 lbs. Should surpass original goal of 10% (261/29 lbs) next couple of weigh ins. Can’t wait to shirt shop @ Ballyhack w/ @Joshnoble01
My weigh in is Friday. I’ll give an update then. I was 297 last week I believe. But similarly for me I’ll be at all time lows as an adult. I was 290 my senior year of high school football. So I am close to hitting that soon. I think I need to get to 285 to meet our 10% original bet.5/1 - 267. Down 23 lbs.

Everyone's body is different, you just need to figure out what works best for you. Don't give up, just switch things up.I'm about ready to accept weight set point theory as an actual thing and not worry about myself so much.
I'm doing all the right things and I'm not losing a thing. That's life, I'll carry on regardless.
I've switched so much food wise and exercise.Everyone's body is different, you just need to figure out what works best for you. Don't give up, just switch things up.
