This is just a part of it, but Lord knows it has to stop. How many more days until Jan 1st? I'm gonna enjoy every last cookie that crumbles into my pie hole, and starting Jan 1, it'll all change. Motivation and direction and just wanting to feel better about myself will kick in. I'm 240 now. This time last year I weighed 220 and I felt wonderful. It's sad to say, but true. Who will join me on Jan 1st for a new lease on life? Please join in. We can do this together. Yes, it's a roller coaster for me, but I'm finna fly down that track once again, and hopefully stay there. I ain't getting any younger.

Awesome, butch. Let’s get some more players and figure out the details on Jan 1. We will PM everyone interested so it gives a chance for everyone to have input on accountability. We may even decide to put a prize together for the winner(s).

Until then, let’s stuff it up!

I gained 10 lbs Thanksgiving. Turkey, dressing and mashpotatoes with homemade yeast rolls and chocolate meringue pie. Now I have to pay the Piper. 2 mile daily walks and NO Christmas candy!😖

You're featherweight, bro. My goal is to bust the 220 mark. 215 is what I got down to year & a half ago. I can do it again.

Planning on it, I'm back to the weight I was, at the end of 2015 before I got big into cycling. I'm not buying any bigger clothes so it's good January is only a few weeks away.

Here's a spreadsheet from a biggest loser contest I participated in several years ago. It was a pretty good goal to set.

Biggest Loser Spreadsheet

Something like this - I think it'd be hard to have prize money since we're spread out all over the place but atleast try the loss percentages and know where you have to be by X date.

I couldn't open spreadsheet because I do not have google account. Would you please email it to me?

I got the email and now the spreadsheet is showing on my I-pad. Thanks for sending.

There’s been over 200 views so far and all we have is 3 participants? C’mon all you fat azzes. Don’t be skeered. It’ll be a fun way to lose weight. Lord knows you need to. At least 90% of the OT does. Cause I’ve seen ya!!

I would say until 2020, I worked out 3-5 days a week, usually 5, and incorporated lots of "different exercise regiments."

In 2020, I have barely worked out most of the year, and especially since about June, barely at all!

I love food, all kinds, healthy food, fast food, junk, sweets, all of it, but my appetite is suppressed.

With what I eat per day, and almost no exercise (which is hard for me) I have NOT gained any weight.

In fact, my pants are really loose on me.

Why? I have developed bone-on-bone in my right hip, and I'm starting to feel it in my left.

It is f'ing crippling me!

Big scheme--I'm in worse shape than ever, and I have NOT gained weight because of it.

Prolly because muscle weighs more than fat. You prolly eat at a moderate level. I eat until it's gone. Not for very much longer, though. I'm ready to pump me up!

Butch.....how do you plan to get more flexible? With weights, bands, yoga, or big sheriff? This is gonna be fun.

Folks, tune in regularly and join in if you’d like. We will post our results from time to time. We do have PMs going for encouragement for the participants. If we can do it, so can you. Enough of the talk.....it’s time to walk the walk!
