It was a great week. Eating well, getting lots of work done. Yesterday morning I was at 195. Yesterday evening was a buddy's pig roast. I did well eating mostly meat, but maybe a little too much of the delicious salty crispy skin.
Good week to all.

Last week: 184.6

This week: 185.4 AM (183.6 After yard work)

Nice little drop there for half a day's labor. Granted it is a little "balmy" here. Balmy as in 95+ degrees with little humidity thrown in for extra measure. Have to be careful on the eating front especially at work. Mind you where I work we've only had one eatery - Mexican. Now the "café" is back open. Frankly too damn hot to want to eat food anyway. Tried it twice. Hamburger steak was little too grisly and fish was little greasy but edible.

Have to see what happens schedule wise next week. Hopefully I'm done ghosting new guy.

Go forth and have a Great Week!

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

There are no levers of power, at least on this sub forum. Beware the flying monkey squadron on some of the others though.

Last week I was on the road, so I only had a guess of about 264, which is close to where I was (have been) for a while. Today I was 262 even. Yesterday I hit my lowest ever of 261 for the third time. I've been pretty stable at 263-266 since January. My surgeon told me I didn't really have anything more to lose at my 18 month checkup in April. So I am content.

I am a little shaky on the levers of power here but trying to start the weekly thread.

I meant to spend the weekend treating and painting my garage floor but a busy work week put those plans on hold. Ended up with kind of quiet weekend and saw Han Solo last night.

Last week 305.4

This week 304.4

Next week i may be traveling and unable to post. So everybody enjoy the Fourth of July holiday

Hope everyone had a great Father's Day.

I am the father of two girls and I spent my Father's Day exactly how I wanted to. Sleeping in till 11 AM and then not leaving the house at all. Just a few household chores and relaxing with the family.

Start of 6 month pre-op diet (2/14): 320 lbs.

6/11: 285 lbs

6/18: 283 lbs

Did a little better with diet and exercise this past week but not as well as I can. I'm really focusing hard this week as I have my monthly appointment next week with my weight management doctor. I'm halfway through my 6 month pre-surgery program!!

I am late here. I am not sure what I weigh today, as my last weigh in was Friday. We went on the road to deliver our oldest grandchild into the hands of her aunt (our daughter), uncle, and her four cousins (aka the little monsters). Friday, after almost a week of indiscreet eating, I was up to 264, from 263 1/4 last week. Tomorrow it is back to my regular program, aka the salt mine, as I call it. I will get by - a Grateful Dead reference.

Here is our ride with the trailer. We bought this 10 year old used camper before my surgery. I fit into the booth, but just barely. Along with the outside pic is one of me sliding in with lots of room to spare. My lovely wife and I also fit onto the almost queen sized bed, but nuff said about that. You'll just have to imagine the rest.

Happy Father's day to all celebrating.

We took a few days to visit family on the New England coast this week. The weather did not cooperate so no swimming or fishing. Now that we are back in Chicago its roasting hot.

Last week 307.2

This week 305.4

I'll take it! Ready to get back to "normal" schedule. Ghosting on evenings is killing the quality of sleep for both GF and I. Coming in at midnight and her getting up at 6:30'ish we wake each other up coming and going. Another week of it next week.

Came home last night and GF had gotten a "doggie daddy" Father's Day card for me from her/our dog. Nice as it was made me miss the dog we lost in January. Never a Daddy myself. Closest I ever came was as "Grandpa Don" to X2's granddaughters.

"Do what you think is right!" - epithet on my Dad's tombstone.

Happy Fathers Day to our fathers and to those that are fathers. I'm lucky to still have mine with me. I'll be with him, and my mom, today celebrating at my sisters house. He retired early, some 35 years ago, so that I could get a job. (There were regulations about relatives in supervision and hiring) One of the things I will always remember him telling me is to keep the family name in good standing. I have dad.

Thanks Dad! If I am half as good as you, I am a success.

Good week to all.

Happy Fathers day to all you dads.

After riding my bike 200 miles last week, I had to recover this week. I aggravated my achilles tendon last weekend, and so I need to lay low for a little while. I'm finally starting back with stretches, and hope in a week or two can start riding again. Still, I'm happy with my weight this morning. Its moving in the right direction.

All the best to the dad's out there. You definitely rock.
