177 the day after Thanksgiving. Could have been worse.
I hear ya! I refused to weigh myself yesterday morning or this morning. I did weigh myself this morning AFTER running 15.5 miles including 4X1600 at MP (last 'big' workout for next week's marathon). I weighed 149.6 which means I was likely 152 or so before running. So I gained a couple pounds since last weigh-in on Wednesday. I got a ace up my sleeve though - I am having an unmentionable medical procedure done (those over 50 years old will likely know what the schtupid thing is) on Monday afternoon that calls for fasting all day Sunday through Monday morning. So, yeah, I bet that gets me back to where I was pre-TurkeyDay.
I'm 37 but family history means I have already been down the road you're going to be walking on Monday. Unpleasant, but effective for weight loss.
Have you qualified for Boston? I want to interview you!

Alright MrFinn. I want in on your challenge. I need to take this weight thing seriously if I want to get faster. I've got to find people to give me shit if I slack off. I'm probably in the mid 180s and would like to dip under 180 by the New Year.
Been spectating here to see how progress has been going. I didn't throw anything out there in October as I was less worried where the weight was and more worried about getting the legs back to running. I'm happy to say that since this started a few months ago, I've been consistently down in the 149's for the last few days. Considering I started 156-158 and the last time I was consistently <150, I was getting ready to run a marathon.
Carry on and good luck keepign those #'s off during the Holidays. Lot's of things happening in December around here...some are streaking, some are piling on the miles and others are cutting weight. Just don't do all that at once, now.
159.4 this morning, finally below 160 again.

yeah....not as bad as it could have been

I'm back in! I've been rowing since the 23rd which means I have a way OTHER than starving myself to loose the weight. Not sure when surgery will be so I'm giving this a shot until then. I would like to reach 125 and I'm 129 right now
Ughhhh! Off the list FOR SURE for the rest of 2012. I have a funny feeling I will be GAINING weight not loosing it. Sorry Mr. Finn!

I'm back in!
I never took you off of the list so that was easy!
Not at it at all.

I haven't even been trying.
Stuck at 165 give or take a lb.
Yay! Glad to hear that you can at least resume some sort of activity until the surgery.
Ok, I weighed my fat self. 185. Six to go next month.
OK, I'm fatter than I thought. 187 this morning. Damn. This had better motivate me.
Spring goals are going to be a lot easier if I can shed 15.

Funny this comes up. Just got back from a check up with the doctor. I turn 50 next year so guess what I get to do.
Despite the suffering (and you will suffer) that procedure actually doesn't result in lasting weight loss.
