Good luck, BJ’s is a shit show on the weekend cause it’s so busy. And at mine they turned most of the checkouts into self serve. Curses!
It’s been a month and I’ve only lost 4lbs? ARGH!

That’s tough since you have been trying hard. Every body is different and it’s tough to crack the code of what works. Lately I’ve had to face the facts that what I am doing is not working and I will have to try to go in another way.

Yeah, I’m going to bitch about it in my log. For now I’m going to go crossfit. I think some of it is stress. You all know I haven’t been very peaceful lately, of course my body isn’t happy either.
MiM, yeah I was up at 4 am but went back to bed. Pch2 – the only time I had slow weight loss and/or bad belly measurements were under stressful times. Just ignore it. The next month will be better.
a lb a week is GOOD!! thats steady progress and you should be proud!

I’m with you MiM. Mine has been exactly a pound a week for many months. This isn’t a Biggest Loser thing I’m doing here. It’s a lifetime change. I’m not on a “diet” so there’s nothing to go off or stop and have the pounds come crashing back on. This is the best way to do it.
yep, also PCH- are you taking measurements/pics?? been consistent with diet/training?
I just got back from an almost 3 mile walk, yay! Had time to think and stuff…

Yeah I just put um up in my log.
I flipped a tire at CrossFit! The first few I needed help with, but then I got it! WOO HOO!
My cardio sucks by the way. Run 200m 5x, no thank you.
drool :jealous:
I need me a tire…
Meant to say,they have a crossfit here…thought about taking a class once just so I can flip a tire!

Gripping it was my biggest issue, esp after climbing yesterday. My hands are fried.
I do a lot of physical shit, it would be nice if I actually looked the part. It pretty much makes the kitchen my glaringly obvious problem. I’ve been super good about food this week, and have found a workable system, so hopefully eventually.
I’ve flipped 80 pound boxing bags (which are my height by the way) and that’s quite a work out. I can’t imagine flipping a tire.
I’m here! I want a tire too!
pch, I’d say that’s a success!
I just got back from a run, and I was walking around my kitchen getting a drink and my sock seemed wet. I look down and see it is soaked in blood and there is a mess of bloody footprints all over the floor. D:
It ends up I somehow managed to get a cut under my toes I have no idea how. My shoes aren’t bloody though. Weird.

I used to have a job in my late teens/early 20s picking and mixing orders of stuff in ~140 lb bags (might have been 160? They were referred to as body bags because they were considered to be the weight of a body) and ~75 lb wooden chests. I am guess at the weights but I know the bags outweighed me.
I loved that job.
I would fill about 5-6 skids of product by putting raising the skid on a forklift to a workable level and use every ounce of my 110 lbs to get it on the skid. Then move it to a blending room where I’d tear it all open and dump it into a hopper where it’d get mix in a massive drum and then I’d do it again.
One morning I decided to mix things up and just pick orders all morning as many as I could and I managed about 6 before I was about to die and ended up going home early because I was beat.
