Yes. I'm averaging about 2 pounds a week and I set my goal of 165 with a ceiling of 175 after starting maintenance. I want all alarms to go off and never reach 180 again.

I am new to this. Can I join on your thread? I have been reading your posts and it has inspired me to see other men discussing and encouraging.

Hey just checking in. I am doing well, feeling a little hungry but a little hungry is good. Nice to have you all here for support.

Keep up the hard work!

All are welcome here. Looks like you're off to a great start!

Yea buzzard....Sometimes even female units stop in here. So far no one has been chased away. Though if a female unit did stop buy and started talking about TOM, I might be the first one to tell her to go else ware. Some one called female units “Hens a cracklings” but the female unit that called out this, didn’t seemed offended.

I think I may have to go down another pant size. I'm able to pull these up under my arm pits...LOL I'll hit a Goodwill on my way home today

Welcome!!! This is a great thread. With all the ladies on the diet it is nice to get some input from the boys.

Well, the verdict is in...

9 days on a cruise ship with unlimited food (and booze for that matter) and I ended up weighing in at the exact same as I left, 251lbs! I actually really didn't eat that much.

I'm really happy about that! I think the day and a half of food poisoning (day 6/7) also saved me! There was stuff coming out of every orifice that day and a half!!

My coaches say I'll need 3 days to get back into ketosis. Already, I'm feeling much better as I'm back into my P1 "routine".

Welcome, Buzzard, Glad you found Vol. 5, I know when I started and they changed from 3 to 4, I got lost.....

Welcome Buzzard. Jump on in we only ask that you don't pee in the pool.

just checking in...its been a long week with watching my grandfather pass away sunday, and today is the two year anniversary of my brothers death...kinda a messed up week, but even seeing the tons of southern foods coming into my grandmothers house I have not cheated...I haven't drank nearly enough water nor eaten nearly enough veggies but have not cheated..
wi at 7:45 am...my scale shows 5 pounds but do not trust it 100%...wish me luck and after funeral friday will get back on 100% saturday

Bill,
Way to stay strong. I know we southerners batter and fry our sorrows. Keep op as much as possible, you will feel better come the first of the week.

One of life's little surprises, forgetting you had asparagus then going to the bathroom. Always scares me...

WI today was only down 2.5lbs. Coach showed me a screw up with eating Thia food I thought was safe. Sometimes feels like the whole freakin world in filled with hidden sugar. Onward and upward.

Adult softball sign-up today for the new season!!! Cannot wait! No more "too tight" team t-shirts and painfully slow trips down the first base line. I want to be at goal weight by my first game of the year, May 12th. That means 31lbs in about 7wks. I think I can do it!

I'm sure the other teams will be wondering who the "new guy is"!

Excellent goal! You will make it.
