bgwfreak Posted December 18, 2006 Author Posted December 18, 2006 I wanted to reach 50lbs by Christmas and I thought it wouldn't happen, but if I bust my butt again this week I might get there! I've lost 49 so far Then I'll pig out Saturday night.
Masked_Maverick Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 I am at 23 stones (330) down from 335 from 2 weeks ago. For the first time in a long time I am losing weight and I feel better just having lost that 5 pounds. I have been taking vitamins and have had a lot more energy, drinking a lot more water ant watching what I eat. I have been going to the gym at my local community college since I am a student and get free access. I want to say congrats. to those out there losing wiehgt and to those trying to I wish you the best of luck I know form experiance it is not an easy thing to do but you can do it.
bgwfreak Posted December 22, 2006 Author Posted December 22, 2006 ^ I'll tell you the truth, it won't be easy the first few months...but it's well worth the effort. I look and feel so much better. I've been kinda sickly this week with some type of bug and I miss my workouts. I've walked a couple times but with being sick and all I can't get that intense workout I like. Hopefully I'll get over this mess soon.
Masked_Maverick Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 Thats the truth the past few weeks for me have been kind of hard but looking back at the results so far it is worth it I just hope I can keep this up and lose enough weight to ride Maverick next summer.
bgwfreak Posted December 25, 2006 Author Posted December 25, 2006 I still probably have another 20lbs before I can fit into the Intamin's comfortably again. Maybe I could fit right now, but it would be a tight fit. But I hope to have the rest of my weight off by June for Coastermania.
ebl Posted December 27, 2006 Posted December 27, 2006 ^ Good luck to you---I'm sure you'll make it! Eric
Masked_Maverick Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 Update I have lost more weight pounds bringing me down to 323. At this rate I may actually hit Raptor rideability by sometime next summer
bgwfreak Posted December 29, 2006 Author Posted December 29, 2006 Yeah, another 20 or so and you should be able to fit on Raptor again. I was about 300 at my top weight and they crammed me on Top Gun, but I fit (barely). Also depends on how tall you are.
Masked_Maverick Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 ^ I hope so but I am about 6'2 and kinda broad in the shoulders
krazekiddd Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 Hey dude! That's awesome! I started losing weight about 3 months ago.. Started off at 240 and now I"m at 194! I'll know tomorrow what my new weight for the week is. Keep up the good work!
bgwfreak Posted January 15, 2007 Author Posted January 15, 2007 Wow this thread is crazy. It's already had like 2600 views! So is anyone else out there losing weight too? I gained a few over the holidays, but I'm back on track and hope to have another 10 or so off by the end of February. I watched the national body challenge this morning (from last night on Tivo) and it's always interesting to watch other people's stories. There was a cool idea for BBQ pork, you get lean pork tendorlone and use apple juice and marinade it for about an hour. It looked really good and it was a lot less calories and fat than a normal BBQ sandwich. Anyway...I'll check in next time I have an update. I'm hoping to hit the 60lbs mark (weight loss) by the end of February.
jynx242 Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 It's good to see so many people interested in getting a bit more healthy. I'm still at about 30lbs loss, but I'm hoping that because I am also working out at the gym, that some of the weight on me now is muscle gain?! Great job everyone...it's easier to walk around the parks without some of the extra baggage.... David
krazekiddd Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Well might as well use this post again.. Took some before and after shots. I'm nowhere near being done but it makes me happy! _________ January 29th 2007... January 10th 2007... October 15th 2006...
bgwfreak Posted January 31, 2007 Author Posted January 31, 2007 I don't know why buy you look Brittish somehow, like you should be Lou's boyfriend. lol I don't know why. lol Oh well, good job! You're a lot closer to goal that I am.
jynx242 Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Wow - I can definitely tell a difference from the pictures, and I bet you can CERTAINLY tell a difference in how you feel. Great job! David

thecoasterkid Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I'm looking to lose about 30 lbs total. So far I'm down 11 in 3 weeks...and I haven't even started to hit the gym yet! I'm just trying to look respectable for the water parks this summer!

Jayjay719 Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I want to lose about 20 or more, just in time for parks! I need to look good ya know!
bgwfreak Posted January 31, 2007 Author Posted January 31, 2007 I just want to fit into TTD! I don't care about looking good as much. lol It's funny wearing clothes you havent' worn in 2 years going, I'll never fit into that...and I do! I've been bad the past 2 weeks, but I'll get back on the ball here soon. I'm still stuck at around 50lbs lost.
AndrewCT Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 I want to loose a few pounds....but I'm not really sure how to. Ive tried a few times, and failed. Get some good tunes, than hit the gym. That's what I've been doing.
fictionalxxfiend Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 Alright this is awesome and inspiring! Serisouly, I am working on losing my weight as well! I was going to give up but I saw this thread and it makes want to keep trying. Thanks!
Masked_Maverick Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 An IPOD has been my best exercise buddy. Seriosuly I just put on my headphones, hit the gym and hey it's all good.
Jayjay719 Posted February 1, 2007 Posted February 1, 2007 Im sick of paying 65 dollars for a gym. I can't go now anyway considering I just had knee surgery on Tuesday.
