I would like to get in on this too, I've already been at it pretty hard for about 3 weeks, it took me about two weeks to build up to running every night for 30 minutes on the elliptical but I'm running between 50-60 miles per week on the elliptical now.

Start weight was 285, this morning was 267  :IBCOOL:

Good to see the success stories under way in here.  :tup:

The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

I was ready today warm cloths on hunting boots went out to the garage and wheeled out the bike my wife bought at a garage sale. She says can you remember how to ride a bike I say you never forget how to ride a bike. Then 3 feet and over I go into the boat trailer knots on the head and arm sore then noticed there was no chain on the bike damn garage sails. Now going to try walking it;s safer.

Did another 3 miles yesterday. I'm still planning on weighing in Monday.

Got a great app for my iphone, its called MYfitnessPal, helps track all my food and exercise. I've been keeping it under 1,800 calories a day trying to get it down under 1,400.
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

TeacherMan,

Be careful, you drop too low in calories and your body essentially goes into starvation mode.  Your metabolism slows down and your weight loss slows. 

You guys should be trying to incorporate some sort of strength training in your routine, because as you add muscle cells your metabolism speeds up.  Plus, it's a great way to prevent injury!

Good luck.

Started at 176.  Weighed in today at 173. Down 3 lbs. So far, I've just cut down on the crap and being aware of my meal portions. Hoping to include more exercise.

I'll second this, especially for us bigger guys.  I spoke to my doctor a little while back about not having much luck losing weight and he asked about my diet.  When I told him I was down to 1500 calories he was surprised I wasn't actually gaining weight.  He said anyone over 225-250 lbs or so shouldn't drop below 2,000 to 2,200 calories a day until they had gotten down below 250 lbs.  He said the best way is really to just gradually work your way down and shave off maybe 100-200 calories a day each week or so, and try to maintain at least 30-60 mins of exercise 5 days a week.

Week 2 weigh in.  250.4 ,  -.8 lbs

As is usually the case after the initial quick drop in weight my body somewhat locks down.  Now the weight will be tougher to bring off. 

Cravings for food I don't normally eat are really kicking in.  I have resisted so far...

I put in anther 45 minutes today on the tred mill at 4-7.2mph. Burned 542 calories. I only took in 745 calories today. With that said I'm feeling heavy from the corned beef and cabage last night  :chuckle: When I started on Feb. 13th I was 260, when I signed up on here I was down to 239. But then I went back up to 245. I think some of the first weight loss was water. I'm hoping to be back down to my sign up weight of 239 Monday.
