Welcome To The 280′s
I had a really good weekend pushing pretty hard in the warrior challenge and I had a clean beginning of this week as well. As has been the norm lately it’s been really hard getting workouts in with the kids but my wife is amazing and has been supporting me this whole journey so she helps me find the time. Let’s see if the hard work and time shuffling paid off in the end.
Previous Weight — 292.8 lbs
Current Weight — 289.0 lbs
Change In Weight — -3.8 lbs
Wow, now that’s what I’ve been looking for. It’s been 3 weeks since I last saw numbers that weren’t -1.2 so I’m ecstatic with these losses. That brings my rough total for April to -10.4 lbs. It also means I’ve reached another one of my goals to lose 100 lbs (since 1/1/2009). So I’ve got a triple win … I broke the trend from the last few weeks, I’m in the 280′s now, and I’ve lost 101 pounds since last January.
As a small aside, I’m still on track with my goal of 275 by June 30th but it’s going to be close, I can’t have too many bad or unproductive weeks.
My goals for May are:
- Lose 10 lbs
- Bicycle 100 miles
- Start running again
- Sign up for a 5k and the 5.7 miler in the fall (if registration opens)
- Setup a WordCamp fitness blogger meet up
All doable and yet still challenging. I’m most excited about the biking, it’s been a blast lately getting out for my early morning weekend rides.
Have you set your goals for May yet?

Welcome to the 100lbs Lost Club!!!!

[WORDPRESS HASHCASH] The poster sent us ’0 which is not a hashcash value.
Thanks, I’m happy to have broken the barrier and lost a bunch this week. It’s crazy even thinking about how much 100 pounds is … 350,000 calories !!!
CONGRATS!!! 100 pounds gone is AWESOME! What are you going to do to celebrate?

I don’t have any specific plans as I just celebrated breaking 300 4 weeks ago, it seems to soon. I’ll likely wait until I hit my mid term goal of 275 and buy some clothes then. My big goal weight prize at 250 is a new road bike and I’m on track for my birthday to reach it.
When I went on Loseit this morning, the first thing I noticed was your triple digit weight loss!!!! Yay for you! Congrats!
Your wife is wonderful to support you in that way. My hubby is the same!

Thanks, I appreciate the support. LoseIt has helped so much and I love the Friends feature. I’ve had a few people reach out to me today to congratulate me via LoseIt.
Without my wife none of this would have been possible in the timeframe I’ve done it. Maybe I’d be able to do it but without support from anyones significant other it’s a huge uphill battle getting healthy and losing weight.
Way to go! Those are some dandy goals for May. Hope you hit them all!
Wow, 101 lbs in just over a year. Way to go!
I like your list of May goals. My goals for May are to run a 5k and to lose 5 lbs. But, the weight really sticks on me and I really have to struggle to get it off in spite of my clean eating and dedication to the gym.
I’ll have to check out that Loseit application!
