Re: Before and During

Saabman, I would call it a day at 189, how skinny are you shooting for?

Re: Before and During

Hey Joe,

It's not about the weight as much as it is about a level of fitness. I think that where I want to be fitness wise would require me to lose a lot more body fat.

I like your weight loss tracker.

Re: Before and During

I wass just going by your pictures, you look healthy and stout at 189.
that is the look i am going for. I am shooting for 180 or so.

Re: Before and During

I'd be happy at this weight.. but with the new year I want to try to take it to the next level. This board helps me out. I come on it everytime I need some motivation. That is usually 10x a day! haha

I just started posting now. But I have been looking at this board for a few years now it seems.

Re: Before and During

Thanks Sarina!

Your weight loss journey is impressive as well! You will be at your goal in no time.

Aweeee, thank you for the compliments and encouragement....I hope I can reach goal within the next 4 to 6 months....I can taste it but I need to continue to be patient....not a strength of mine but I'm continuing to work on it

It's great to meet you, I look forward to reading more of your updates.

Have a fabulous weekend!

Re: Before and During

I am dreaming about BBQ chicken for some reason! I hate dieting!

[OneSixtyFive]

Re: Before and During

Cant wait to see those pics!! LOL

We had some chicken off the grill yesterday.....and the leftovers I put in my salad and it was soo good...so much better than the boneless skinless I usually use..my hardest thing to give up is definetely MEXICAN food and MARGARITAS!!!!! Man its gonna be tough..but it will be worth it..thats what I keep repeating in my head anyways...mexican and margaritas and 2 for 1 happy hours got me here!!!

[SaabMan]

Re: Before and During

Mexican food is a weakness of mine as well. The margarita's are the killer. The pack in massive amounts of calories. Booo. Why does everything that taste good have to be so darn bad for you??

I buy my boneless chicken breast from Target. They are soooo dry.

Anyone else have a weakness?

That was good news.

Hope you are doing well.
