      Tues 8/7 weigh in  166lbs

        Weighed in before my run this morning... but maybe I should've waited until I burnt off my Jimmy John's and the 5 Land Sharks I drank last night... oh well... 181.3

          Not sure if today is W2 or if I'm off-schedule, but ... 169.0 in weigh-in/running kit.  Hopefully, that's weight loss and not just dehydration.

          Feeling the growl again

            Well, I just undid a week's worth of work, and I haven't even had a drink yet.

             

            Good thing I get to run tomorrow.  Smile

              165.4 today.

               

              Not as much loss as hoped due to a couple days of eating big for a marathon I "ran" the other day. But the trend is correct.

                Starting weight: 188.8

                Today:188.2

                Goal: 182.

                 

                I want to keep this goal doable, and in proportion to my motivation to lose weight.

                  OK. I have to say it... I LOVE BEER. Trying to just have a few on the weekends suck. Especially, with softball being on Thursday night... I just know that beer is a major reason I have gained so much weight...

                      Hehe.

                       

                      In the past week, I've downed a pint of Ben & Jerry's and nice portions of Cheetos and Kettle Chips (FYI: Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper = yum!).  While my weight is technically down, I look at my middle and it seems like I've got slightly more padding over the six-pack than a month or two ago.  Confused

                        Beer.  Yeah, I hear you.  The problem with me regarding beer is that I tend to eat a lot worse when I am drinking,

                         

                        178.5 this morning, up 2 from last week.  I spent a few hours at Musikfest yesterday drinking beer, eating, and listening to music.  Oh well.

                        Not at it at all.

                          Beer / alcoholic drinks...it's been bourbon lately...is my number one.

                           

                          Oversnacking when I get home and then again before bed is the other one. I downed 2/3rds of a bag or Dorito's last night.

                           

                          Now, for the next 40 days will be extended hours at work which will lead to poor eating habits and poor eating decisions. I had to come in a 3am today and nearly caved to eat out of the vending machines but had an inner battle with myself and decided to pack a healthier lunch.

                           

                          That didn't prevent me though from buying the donut sticks I just finished.

                            I knew I liked you.

                             

                            I hear you on the evening issues.  For breakfast I had a banana and black coffee.  For lunch it will be a PB&J sandwich.  This is pretty much representative of most days.  So my only excuse is bad behavior when I get home.

                              Not much of an improvement, but at least it's not a gain like a couple other folks that I won't point out. Wink

                               

                              I usually drink beer on the weekend and since I tend to run more miles on the weekend that's usually not a big problem. My biggest issue is evening snacking. I like to have a glass of wine (or two or three) in the evening and of course snacks along with it. Usually more snacks than I should have. And yes, Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper chips are very yummy. Sea Salt & Cracked Pepper pretzels are also quite tasty.

                                Sorry for being late on reporting - Week #3 was 199 - a beaten down 199, so I do not expect much more this week - Although I am having a really good week both eating and training - Week #2 with no alcohol ... Coincidence?  Sadly, I think not.

                                Long dead ... But my stench lingers !
