CopperLix All-American

I'm 60 years old, 6'0" and 227 lbs.

In 6 months I would like to get down to 185 lbs.

I'm going to use My Fitness Pal to plan all of my meals ahead of time, and track my macros and calories. I am giving myself 1800 calories per day, with 35% from protein, 30% from fat, and 35% from carbs.

I will have at least 4 workouts per week of at least 30 minutes each.

So my original idea was to use this thread as updates/motivation. Do we want to

cougaman

Either works for me. Let’s get some more signed up!

I've had at least 30 ask for the link. We'll see if they join by tonight.

cougaman

In reading the rules, you can join the game up to 14 days into the challenge...

cougaman

Can you repost to the main board tonight with the link?

tander123

I feel like I've been posting a lot, but 1 more time won't hurt, right?

So I get to work today and a drug rep brought in a bunch of McFlurry's. There

cougaman

I had about 24 oz of Mtn Dew I found today, from what I left from last week.

I avoided 3 boxes of doughnuts yesterday. You can do it!!

I confess, I had my first weak moment today. BUT... I am back on track! Admin

tander123

8/7/19 6:31pm

That is different though. I can go get a McFlurry every day. If it was a

Boss brought in doughnuts...

I did resist the pizza on Monday!

I went out to eat tonight on a date with my wife. I ordered green beans instead

durandal

8/7/19 9:19pm

That's the key. It's unsustainable if you aren't realistic. You can do it for a

cougaman

8/7/19 9:27pm

Funny story.

fldnstrm

8/7/19 8:53pm

Yeah, we would have finished those off on Sunday in our house

cougaman

Can I still join?

jvquarterback

8/8/19 10:27pm

Yes

fldnstrm

8/8/19 10:37pm

Yes, you are a few days behind, so might be tougher to get your 4%goal weight,

cougaman

8/8/19 10:40pm

CHEAT DAY!!

Kugmo

8/9/19 10:05am

How's everyone doing? I've managed to stay below calorie goal all days but one

durandal

8/10/19 6:20pm

I've been pretty close to my calories most days. Probably gone over by about 200

cougaman

I missed dinner last night, but later felt a need for a protein fix.

8/10/19 6:40pm

So we are officially 1 week in. I want to hear some updates. We have lost a

cougaman

8/13/19 9:23am

So I have been pretty good, portion control and cutting out crap.

fldnstrm

8/13/19 10:54am

Dang man, 13 lbs in a week?! Good for you.

durandal

8/13/19 11:02am

Don't worry about your weight compared to others. You are in a different spot

cougaman

8/13/19 11:15am

Agreed. I think more than anything, like cougaman said its mostly water weight.

fldnstrm

8/13/19 4:21pm

I don't think too much too fast on week 1 is a thing. Most of it is water weight

cougaman

8/13/19 11:12am

I'm doing OK.

jvquarterback

8/13/19 12:00pm
