Keep working hard, my friends.

5 months is a hell of a long time to get into shape, so continue checking in.

Hit the big 40 lost finally. Ecstatic with that. Big round numbers are nice milestones. On to 50.

wow, big numbers

I've been flatlining around 183-185, which is fine for a few weeks. I can only sensibly lose 5-7 more lbs, anyway.

That happens, DMT. Credit yourself for holding the line, and just look for the next motivational angle - beach season, reunion, whatever....

Keep it up, Hacko!

Thanks Judge - not complicated as much as frustrating. Can't really plan anything or get on a life track until I wrap up the divorce which is hard to do when there is no communication with the soon to be ex. She has cut herself off from me and 2 of the 3 Girls so I guess I have to wait until August when it goes in front of the Judge . In the mean time everything is in Limbo - House, finances, vacations...not to begin even thinking about dating ( which is tough to do when 3 nights a week I am at the gym in classes with about 15 to 20 women.)

HBO is showing a documentary titled Weight of The Nation. It is a profile on everything from Type 2 diabetes to American dietary habits. Bears watching, especially if you have family or friends struggling with diabetes. It is also motivational and informative.

I figured I had put some back as I slacked a bit. Back on track now.

Cool i'll check it out. I actually motivated my 60+ year old parents to make a healthy change and both are down over 20 pounds the past few months. My sister is next on the hit list. Trying to get her motivated. She actually had lap band surgery about a year ago, but shes failed at it because she doesn't make the dietary changes.

Same weight - no change but since I had a birthday party & of course Mothers day. I will take that. Thinking about riding my bike to work 3 days a week. 3 mile trip.

[Judge Jude]

thanks much for the "post-game" thread here - it keeps me treading water at 185.

I swear I make some mistakes, but accountability here leads me to do enough things right to maintain, and that is a good thing!
