Hello everyone first let me say thank you to everyone who has answered my previous posts. I will post before and during pics this evening. You all have given me the courage to do so. I have a quick question first. I want to report my weight as accurately as possible, so I was wondering. Do most folk’s weigh in their birthday suit or in there gym clothes? I have a bathroom scale that I jump on after showers so you know the answer there. When I go to the gym I weigh too, but there I am in my gym clothes. I just estimate the difference and call it even. I haven’t mustered the courage to walk around the locker room neked yet. This may be an odd question, but I want to make sure I am truthful to myself.

your "true" weight, if that's possible, is first thingin the morning, after going to the bathroom, without clothes...

but as long as youo weight consistently - the same clothes, the same time, the same scale - it really doesnt matter much..

Also take measurements - those will be more accurate than the scale...
 
Morning

I will wiegh in the morning and see if it's any different. I pretty much wear the same thing every day at the gym. T-shirt, shorts, nike shoes. obtw, if anyone can recomend a decent scale under 50 bucks U.S. I would appreciate it.
 
I bought the weight watchers digital scale (about $30-40 at Wal-Mart, sorry I dont remember the actual price, but it was $40 or under) and it has worked great so far. I have had it for about a month and a half and it seems pretty accurate and sturdy.
 
Me Too!

M2M, lol I'm right with you. I will be glad when the day comes that I can go to the beach or pool and not feel embarrassed.

Somethingnew912, thanks for the advice, I will check out wally mart this evening. Been meaning to get a decent scale now that I am on the road to a new me.
 
I need every advantage I can get. So I shave my nose hairs and clip my toenails before getting on the scale.
 
1. Clear belly button lint.
2. Dust off feet.
3.Brush teeth and rinse with listerine to remove all traces of plaque
4. Brush whatever remaining hair is on head, to get rid of those pesky flyaway hairs
5. Tweeze eyebrows
6. I would remove glasses, but I n eed the glasses to see the scale numbers :)

You are both forgetting to expel all air from your lungs and think "light and airy" thoughts.

As for the glasses, have someone else hold them and tell them to think light thoughts too... ;)

For me, I am nekkid as much as possible. I live in a very hot part of the world so this is more necessity than vanity. But even at the sauna or in the locker room I used to be very self conscious, but now that I am older and not out to impress other people (though not being a gay man I have no idea why I was so worried about impressing other nekkid men before anyways...) I can be nekkid just about anywhere at the drop of a hat. As long as it doesnt get me thrown in jail...

My daughter still gets a shock some mornings when daddy is weighing himself "au naturelle" in the mornings before work. That will learn her to walk into daddies office without announcing herself....

Before, not even close, and more to come

ok her are 2 pics of me while I was in Japan over C-mas. I was weighing around 260, today with the nose hair trimmed and the thoughts of being light as a feather I weighed in at 235. Hopefully people will be nice. I am not sure what I am going to do about the ugly stretch marks, I'll burn that bridge when I cross it.

You look like the evil scientist from Jurassic park :D

Keep going man, keep going!
 
Good work buddy!!!

Don't stress the strechies too much. I used to have those same bad boys myself, though they have faded to almost nothing. Worst case scenrio get a funky tat designed on yer belly, when you are finished that is. Hate to have a funky design shrink away.....

Hmmm, maybe thats an idea when I get to my ideal weight. Get a really cool tatoo on my stomach that I know would stretch and look terrible if I put on weight again.....

Worth a shot!

Newman!

So your saying I look like newman? Thats exactly why I'm trying to get my fat ass back in to shape, I used to look like Antonio Banderas.

Thanks for making me feel better about the stretch marks. I am hoping I don't have a bunch of loose skin. I heard that if you replace the fat with muscle then there is a better chance of not having som much.
 
Hey! Your tummy almost looks like mine

You can see the difference. As for weighing in, don't forget to clean the 'ol ears out.. the buildup can throw the scale off.. :D

Welcome, btw.
