3lbs is still not bad--that's what I lost this month. ;) And it's a helluva lot better than gaining 3lbs.

Anyway, I know you'll kick some ass in March. :smash:

I guess I have been spoiled by losing double that each month. I might have hit a plateau combined with my Vegas trip:banghead:
I to be back on track though as I weighed in this morning at a new low of 244 :party:

I like your 2 pounds a week challenge. The good thing about you is that you are always trying, and though you may have a smaller number, you are still taking it off. You are doing amazing with your 71lb loss. Keep it up!! 3 pounds gone is great for Feb. You are off to a great start for March. Doing it!
 
I just got done reading through your posts **whew**..... awesome job so far!! You're definitely doing the right things for yourself and over 70lbs already, that's great!! I'm back doing this thing again and in about the same boat, agewise and what not. That part about the seat belt on the airplane rings a bell for me. I'm actually a non-traditional college student and well... those desks are not built ideally for middle aged fat men. I can't wait to be able to sit in one rather than "squeeze" in one. I don't know when and at what weight that will be, but that is definitely a goal. Congrats again on the progress so far and keep it up.

I just "feel" like I'm struggling though. Maybe it's more of a mental plateau:ack2:

Yeah, that could be it. I've had that feeling. I guess maybe you need to find some new form of motivation. Too bad you didn't sign up for my latest challenge. :D Maybe a new goal--like getting into a certain size jeans, or rewarding yourself with something for hitting a certain weight. :)

I hope you had a great weekend! :hug2:

Looks like Terrelle Pryor's gonna keep us all in suspense until April 1st..lol. I'm pretty sure Michigan's off his list, though. Looks like Ohio St. or Penn St. :nopity:

Yeah I'm trying to stay positive about it. A loss is a loss regardless of the size of it! I guess I had gotten used to seeing bigger numbers:sifone:

Welcome aboard Steve!
Thanks for the congrats. You can lose as much as you want to so you feel comfortable in those desks. Good for you on being a "non traditional college" student! Just exercise and watch what you eat by counting your calories and you'll get to where you want to be weightwise in no time! :D

I think I got too used to seeing those bigger numbers on the scale. Now they're going to get tougher to get off and I might have to make some adjustments in calories or exercise to compensate for it. I'll see how it goes this month before trying anything drastic though.

I had an ok weekend. Had to go to a wedding :ack2:
Very ackward, ex-sis in-law. Just felt strange there. I left after the reception got going . Couldn't eat anything there anyways *L*

If Pryor had half a brain he'd go to Michigan. That program is going to be perfect for him at least from what I saw at that AllStar/Sr game. Ohio St I can understand the attraction but Penn St ??? He must be considering career suicide.
 
Things to do list:

Buy a new suit!
Went to a wedding this weekend and wore a suit for the first time in a VERY long time. I had probably not worn this suit in about a year. It didn't fit me at all. I had to make do with it though as I'm a one suit kinda guy. The pants literally fell off me. I had to fold them in the front and cinch my belt extra tight to get them to stay on me. The shirt was baggy but not near as big of a disaster. The coat looked...big! Total package probably looked ok to everyone but to me I looked stupid because it was too big. Now this was a good problem to have I know but I gotta get a new one asap!
 
LOL@your suit being too big. That is a great problem to have. ;) I wish I lived closer--I'd go suit shopping with ya. :D I can imagine that wedding was awkward. I don't think I would've gone..lol.

I think Pryor's enjoying the media attention. Thing is, he better do a helluva job wherever he goes now after all the hype. I think he's gonna find it hard to live up to it all.

Yesterday at my open house, a couple came through whose son is currently at Auburn. They have gone to a few of the football games there, and said the atomosphere is electrifying. So you would've been proud to hear 3 Big Ten people standing there chatting about how good the SEC is. :D Maybe someday I'll make it down there to go to a UGA game with ya. I would love that.

Yeah buying new clothes is definetly a good problem!

I can't wait for the season to start! Everyone down here is so optimistic for the upcoming season. You should do a football road trip! I'm absolutely going to a game or two this season since I didn't go last year.
 
Yah, I think a football roadtrip is in order. And with gas at $3.44 a gallon up here, I'll be coming right down...hahaha :driving: By summer it'll probably be $4 a gallon. :ack2: I'll check weekend flight deals to Atlanta instead. :D

How's Scalena been treating you lately? :smash:
 
Fucking gas... $4 a gallon during the summer. Sheesh.... How am I supposed to molest my bitches this summer if the gas keeps going up????? :p Hey handsome ass.... dropping in to check up on you and your amazing shrinking ass. Is it youtube worthy yet? If so... hook a bitch up with an address. ;) hahaaaa Missed you, Paul Doll.

Airlines will likely be raising prices soon too :ack2:

Scalena has been pretty good, going down on me steadily again..finally!:sifone:

Wow, I guess Scalena is being a good little girl again. Guess you've got her well-trained. ;)

The airlines still do last minute weekend fare deals that are pretty good. I could probably get a round trip ticket to Atlanta for under $200--which is a lot faster than driving, and cheaper. So we'll see what happens come Sept or Oct--or maybe Nov to cash in on better weather..haha.

Have a good weekend! Too bad you didn't join my latest challenge--you'd have kicked ass!
