ACMESkydiver 0 #1 June 8, 2007 Hooray! Okay, now that Belly Off is done and we have our winners (yea John!) -can I resurrect a tradition that mnealtx started a year or so ago? We used to have a weekly weight loss thread to keep people that were having a go of changing their health and their figures motivated to drive on! Many weight loss boards do it this way: Type of program you are following Starting weight / weight lost / goal weight OR... # of pounds to lose total / pounds lost / = pounds left to go! Or for those of us that are yet even more remiss to mention how much we have to go...we have the ever-popular: Pounds or inches lost this week / pounds or inches lost total overall If you're into clothing size or minutes off of your run, pounds added to your lifts, or however you wanna set your goal and measure your acheivements, more power to ya...just chime in and we'll all be working towards health and fitness. I know there are a bunch of people that are making some big lifestyle changes right now...I'm one of 'em, and I'm not afraid to admit that I sure appreciate some encouragement now and then. I'll start: I'm working on low-carb (basically Atkins). I have thyroid disease and low-carb was recommended. I'll start working out after I'm done with the first week, and that will be 4 days/week on the treadmill and freeweights to start. My goals: Lose 7 dress sizes (possible 8, I won't know until I'm closer ) and goal weight of 126. -That's the lowest weight I can maintain without looking disproportionate, so I may modify that as I get closer...and I want to be able to run a 5k with my daughter. So are you game? ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scoop 0 #2 June 8, 2007 This could be good. I wanna get DOWN to 100KGs... yes down! I've stopped all training and I'm only going to do cardio from now on! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACMESkydiver 0 #3 June 8, 2007 Quote This could be good. I wanna get DOWN to 100KGs... yes down! Oh I forgot to mention that we don't accept her majesty's imperial metric BS for measurements. You will have to convert to US pounds and inches or you will be banned from the thread. j/k, measure however you want, but don't be surprised when we look at you like this --> when you say how many kilograms you lost. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

ACMESkydiver 0 #12 June 8, 2007 Quote LOL, well its 2.2 lbs per kilo. Its not that hard sweetie Ok fine, but if you start talking Celsius, well mister, I just won't have any of that nonsense in my thread! Do you have ANY idea how f*cking lame it is to convert a Farenheit weather report into Celsius for a flight and then forget what it was and have to reconvert it back to Farenheit for people that ask 'what's the temperature up there'?!? I know experienced aviation enthusiasts know basic conversions off the top of their heads. But damn it all I didn't!! I didn't. I quit flying mainly because of that. -That and the thousands of dollars more it was going to cost me...~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

Scoop 0 #19 June 8, 2007 Quote ....whatever exercise I can edge in working 72 hrs/week. Not alot then!! I used to hate the long hours in my old job. Was up ridiculously early so no chance of doing anything before work. Work a 12 hour day, get something to eat, veg out for an hour or so then go to bed. Sucked so much Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
