**New World Order** · 01-06-2016, 07:50 PM

I'm in training. Sleep training.

I've been using the Dietbet app to lose weight. You join a bet, pay a fee, weigh in at the beginning and then weigh in again at the end. If you hit percentage weight loss goal, you get a cut of the total pot.

They have different time lengths for the challenges. I've done a 30 day challenge and a six month one last year where your weigh in every month. Won $150 for the six month one.

Gym is annoyingly crowded. Can't wait until February and everyone goes back to being lazy!

You're considered a n00b after 2 months off, n00b.

Two months of fatassing it, and I'm back at it. 4 days in a row, now. I've got to stay on it, because I got depressed as shit when I stopped going.

Saw 2 Chiefs caps at the gym this morning. It's happening.

**lewdog** · 01-09-2016, 12:10 PM

I've been rocking Royals and Chiefs gear all month while deadlifting like a boss.

**TinyEvel** · 02-22-2016, 05:38 AM

I moved to KC in June. My usual weight without doing anything to lose, is 224. When I started the original weight loss thread in 2010 I was my heaviest ever at 236. Feb. 1 this year I weighed 248.

Feb 10 I gave up drinking, was much more conscious of what I eat (simpler breakfast, simpler lunch, less snacks) and work out (35 min lifecycle, 25 min weights) 6 mornings a week. I'm losing a steady .5 lbs per day. I'm down to 241 with a target weight of 221 and ideal goal of 210 -- which I think would be tough to maintain without tightening up what I'm already doing. I'm 6'2" and wide-shouldered.
But just in these 12 days --damn I feel like I've lost 20 lbs. I have so much energy during the day and sleep well at night.

Got the flu. Haven't lifted in 6 days. Boo.

Gonna suck going back tomorrow, if I even can.

I'm not gonna lie its been months since I lifted, but I have been working out regularly at home and on the streets.

I've also had the flu since last Wednesday. I've called out of work Thursday, Friday, and today, and I feel just awful for doing it. How do you not beat yourself up over calling out sick?

Most people feel awful, some just don't give a ****.

I've gained 32 lbs while pregnant. I had a scare very early on. I wasn't on bed rest, but I could not do anything that put too much stress on the pelvis. Gave up my gym membership, since I wasn't going to be able to go anyway. Basically, right now, I get winded if I'm on my feet for too long (couple of hours). Walking is about my only exercise. Plus, I came down with gestational diabetes. Counting carbs has really helped any further weight gain, though. I think I've gained 1 lb in the last five weeks.

Plans for after this kids decides to pop out: Dad got me a jogger stroller, and I'm so looking forward to putting that to good use. Plus, I'm going to keep on counting my carbs. PLUS, breastfeeding burns calories! Yeah! (TMI, I'm sure.)
