I started at 166 and was pretty unhealthy fall term, and I got up to 184 or so. I'm working out again and am back down to 170 or so. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] (But probably healthier/stronger than I was last summer.)

Dids, 5'8"
Start Weight: 331
Current Weight: 266

Payoff from me:
$.25/lb 1->40
$.80/lb 41->70
$1.57/lb 71->167
$.75/lb 168->187

You're 5 pounds away from the money zone. Keep up the good work.

Things I've done:

Walked a ton at the start. I had no car and a bus stop ~1.5 miles away. Now I'm driving more, but hitting the gym hard.

I started eating a healthy breakfast at work. The change from my old breakfast (something pasteryish, chocolate milk, cheese and crackers and diet mtn dew) to my new breakfast (good for you cereal, yogurt, fruit) is huge.

I really focused on cooking my own meals, and when I cook it's mostly lower fat stuff. Simple things like using turkey sausage instead of pork. I don't really limit stuff, I just make healthy choices when it's easy.

I started bringing my lunches to work, which makes me control portions (if for no other reason than to allow for leftovers), and eat better lunches.

Drinking a ton of water.

I now have fruit at my desk for whenever I need to snack.

When I want sweets I make a smoothy with protein powder, frozen fruit and sweet and low.

The cooking is a really big part of it. It just forces me to eat better, make better decisions, all that stuff.

down to about 330, have a bet with the wife about who can lose more before my 10 year HS reunion in June, so it's gonna start ramping up now. Just put on a pair of jeans I hadn't been able to wear in multiple years, and they fit good.

Cutting out pop has made a huge difference.
