weight loss
Hello All:
I washed the bikes and pulled out the batteries today. So no more riding for me till next year and I thought I'd throw in a different subject. This past Thanksgiving was a wake up call for me. When I saw 186 lbs, I was terrified. Since then I've lost 12 lbs and aiming at another 12 lbs by x'mas. Maybe it's a little too ambitious but I'll try. Cheers, E. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

It's hard to take it off. As a reminder every time I go to the gym I pick up two 25 pound barbells and do a quick trip around the gym with them to remind me of that extra weight I carried. I'm working to lose another 20 but it"s real slow going now. Good luck to all trying to lose weight and never give up.

Hey Ya all, I have lost a even 70 lbs since Sept 1, 2011. My goal is an even 100lbs. If I do that I will weigh what I did when I got out of Marine Corps boot camp!

186 pounds? Where's the rest of you? I weighed 186 pounds when I was in the Marine Corps.

I tore a page out of your book E and have lost 30 lbs. and I'm aiming for another 30. That'll take me to 200 lbs. I just about fell off my feet when I saw 258 Lbs.
Thanks for the inspiration !!
