Hey BM, thanks for bringing this thread back to the top. Regarding your inquiry, I'm still stuck at about 180. You might remember that I got down to about 176 a while back, but that didn't last long. Sitting at the computers for 8 hours a day doesn't help. But, because I've got computers on two floors, I do get some exercise going up and down the stairs about 30 times a day. I rarely have ice cream, cookies, etc. On the other hand, I do have a fondness for M&M's with peanuts, and consume at least a pack a week. I still enjoy wine (red and white, but not pink), which is full of calories. But I figure that 3 glasses isn't too bad. And truth be told, I had 6 Girl Scout Thin Mints this week, but that's a once-a-year thing. So I think my biggest problems at this point are not enough exercise (burning calories), and too much fat from meats (I love baloney, hot dogs, etc.).
Another thing I've done to lose weight is to read your post. Just imagining all that exertion made me feel so tired that I think I need a nap. Right after I have a burger and some 7-Up.
Edit: I hope that you all realize that this post was intended to be humorous. I know that some folks here are working on serious weight loss, and that my paltry 5 or 10 pounds is nothing compared to what you're working on. I just like to bring a little brevity to the topic now and then. Still, as a guy who was a 155 pound bean pole for a long time, being 185 was a big deal for me, and I in fact really do want to get back down to maybe 170, and it really
isn't
easy.
Stay focussed!
