weight loss contest/support

[Magicman]

Well I ain't on a diet and this was my supper:


 
Iceberg lettuce, a whole Roma tomato, diced chicken, cheese, e/w Thousand Island dressing, croutons, & wheat thins.  Judging by the fork you can see that that (Tom) actually is a huge bowl and it was piled high.

[Sedgehammer]

Reached something I haven't seen for 36 years...... 155 lbs. Want to get to 145 (high-school weight), but that'll be tough. Hopefully can get in the 140's at least if I keep this trend up. Maybe 2 weeks or so. Everyone else, keep it up, err down I mean, it can be done.

had brisket for dinner last pm, drank water all night and had eggs this am at work.  was 183 this am.  hovering!

[Jeff]

If I skipped the rest of my meals today, I'd get there first, but I wont do it. I was 1280.1 this morning. I'm not going to claim 70's until I am there and not bouncing back into the 80s. Hopefully later next week?

[stanwelch]

Now you've done it Jeff and Doc. :D I accept the challenge— 261.4 this morning. I've got to get going or Jeff is gonna blow my doors off. 7 weeks til we get to Jake's— can we make 2 decades?

Great progress Jeff. Git R Done 8)  ( I think you May have skipped a century  :D )

[doc henderson]

thanks for the challenge and see you at Jake's Stan.  "doc"

[Jeff]

Stuck my head into the party decade this morning. 279.6.  Heading for those mellow 60s.  

Magicnan, that's exactly the kind of salad I like  except I only use 1 tbs of dressing.

[doc henderson]

Congratulations!!!  I am at 183.  had a great food day yesterday until I got home.  busy day.  my wife made the spaghettis squash, and I ate a lot of meat balls.  so good food, but slow weight loss.



 



 

that was my first helping! :D  cannot wait to see what haircut you will be rocking at Jake's!?  great job!

[Jeff]

Catch me if you can 

[trapper]

started out good lost 4 lbs but last son in law died when wife and I were at his wifes house nobody including his kids had eaten so i went out and got pizza and breadsticks  well next week i can start over.

[stanwelch]

Trapper. Sorry for your loss and set back. But, good on you for stepping up.  Today is another day and you have the will to get back on track with the weight. 

[doc henderson]

Wow.  Trapper, if that does throw you off kilter, I do not know what would.  Your energy will be needed elsewhere.  God bless!

[doc henderson]

I hit 180 this am.  going to need to let my hair grow out a bit for the 70s.

[EOTE]

I hit 180 this am.  going to need to let my hair grow out a bit for the 70s.

Two thoughts...aren't you a little young for the 70's?
I can't remember the second thought... :D

[doc henderson]

I think I have a pic from the 1970s.  no beard but made up for it with head hair.

[stanwelch]

Good progress Doc. 

[Jeff]

278 this morning. 1 more to 30lbs.

[doc henderson]

I am still 180 so no pic from the 70s yet.  the dial was not quite down to 0, but I have left that alone.  could prob. calibrate to 0 and be under the mark.   maybe tomorrow.  1978 is the year I graduated from high school!      :P   8)  

[Jeff]

[doc henderson]

who is the weird guy with the cute chick?  (70s lingo!)  
hopefully I will break the 70s barrier in the am and can send you mine.!
and wow, had to "MOD"ify to add, i see a peace sign in the back ground, 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

[Jeff]

[Jeff]

If i dont quit flippin back and forth between the 80s and the 70s i may have to grow a mullet.

[doc henderson]
