rofl! My belly has been gurgling bigtime ever since then too hahaha! 225 was my original goal for elk season :) and I made it with time to spare!

Coming down from an unofficial weight of about 300lbs six months ago has been awesome, I haven't been in this good a shape from a cardiovascular standpoint in my entire life! From a strength standpoint I am doing very well  also.
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

236lbs moving pretty slow right now.  taking a break when I shouldn't be taking a break. :bash:  At the final couple of weeks and here I am loafing around finding excuses... :bash:  Better go out with a bang these last couple of weeks.  Good luck to everybody still fighting the good fight, now suck it up and finish the final couple of rounds. :tup: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

No weight to report at this time but I am in TOP gear now! I've stepped up my workouts about 75% and am eating leaner than ever with almost no carbs.

My next weigh-in will probably be my last for the contest. :)

235lbs. Got 2 weeks and I'm shooting for another 5 so I can say negative 100lbs for 8 months.  Congrats FC and keep pushing it and my loss slowed down but my strength is ever increasing.  Got my 1 mile down to 7:34 and that's almost as fast as it was before my senior year in high school.  Keep it up everybody, don't stop pushing it.

So I have been not jumping on the scale lately.  Due to getting geared up for the fire season for communications.  Didn't think I had lost anything maybe even went up.  Jumped on the scale and 325 -3 wow who would have thought.  That is down 14bls since starting this and 20lbs since Feb.  Good job to everyone else too.

Another -2 223 now.  Work and a strained flexer muscle in my arm has cut into my exercise regiment back to it this week.  Then bow season this weekend.

234lbs final weigh-in.  Since the contest ends tomorrow and I'm going to be roaming the hills I'm posting now.  Here's my before and after pics.  1st pic is from Dec. 2011 unofficial weigh-in 330lbs at that time the biggest I've ever been.  2nd pic Aug. 30, 2012 234lbs.  Still on my plan to drop another 40lbs at least by end of Dec.

I should probably post a weight now too in case I don't have time tomorrow!

212  -12!

Unofficial start weight of around 300 6 months ago (I didn't even want to admit THAT) and a less impressive official start weight of 267, I am down to the last 15-20lbs or so now.

Congratulations to all who participated in this one, the results alone are a hell of a win for all of us!

Edited to add before and after pics.
