Too funny!!!!

100# is right.

I did it through diet and exercise. There is a silver bullet that makes it easier. PM me and I will let you in on the secret.

Never in our married life had we owned a scale. I just couldn't figure out why my 3X shirts were too small and the size 42 pants didn't fit under my belly.  My better half has always been trim. Even after 7 kids she weighs in at 118#'s.

To start it off we purchased a scale. I committed to weigh my self daily (in the morning just before I hopped in the shower). I then wrote my weight on the side of our mirror with a dry erase marker. I would keep 40 to 60 days of weights on the mirror to see what direction I was heading, and to be accountable to my better half.

I cut out pop and sugar, quit making a stop at the convenience store for anything but gas.
Chewed lots of sugar free gum.
Drank GALLONS AND GALLONS of Crystal Lite.

My main menue consisted of lots of stir fry meals!

Since Thanksgiving I am up 4# to 6# but holding steady, I did enjoy my favorite pies (round) and other holiday treats.

Any exercise was just walking. This winter, I've tried to hunt rabbits each weekend,and jump shoot ducks at night, this keeps me out and about.

My good buddy turned 50 this year, during hunting season he just wasn't feeling well, after he went in for a check up. He ended up getting a triple bypass.  

 REALITY HIT HOME! That is not a road I EVER want to go down. He is in recovery and doing well but has a road to work back to hunting weights on his bow.

Mudd, I have my weight under control...been 360# for two years now.

Last time I hunted with a guide I told him; "If you say we have to go to the top we'll go to the top..... We just have to do it at MY speed"

Longbowben hasn't "weighed" in yet?  He's an expert on this subject!

[maxwell]

That is really funny -using braille to hook up belts, I'm an expert

You know it's bad when an alarm starts chirpin' every time you back up! It's also probably not a good sign if you bring a toothbrush and a change of clothes with you to the "all you can eat" buffet.

I'm 6'2" and pushing 270. O.k., I'm officially "too fat to hunt" - at least like I used to.

[Steve Clandinin]

Hey,Did you guys hear about Gene and Biggies Safari to Africa ? They were walking close to the river,that was infested with man-eating Crocodiles.Biggie fell in and before they could pull him out,He ate three!

I wish you all well in you quest to lose. Do it for the Health of it.

[NorthernCaliforniaHunter]

There is alot to be said for being "fat and happy"
I had belly band put in 2 months ago and am losing some weight but we cooked a bunch of beans for 2 days at the lease. I could only eat about a cup of them. I wanted to cry. Them beans were good. Being full had nothing to do with how much I wanted to eat

[Biggie Hoffman]

I'm not betting against Joey, I've seen him do this 4 or 5 times already in the last 20 years or so...

[lpcjon2]

Your not fat until you've been approached to be a stunt double for the Michelin Man.Maybe he has camo for sale.

15 months ago I weighed 310 pounds and was told by my doctor if I wanted to live another five years I had better do something NOW.....through a bunch of life style changes I now weigh 180, have the proper blood pressure and exercise every day.....I cannot express how much better I feel and can now keep up with anybody.....to all those who NEED to lose weigh, don't ever give up.....take  the victories where they come and keep it up !!!!!!!

[Biggie Hoffman]

I'm doomed. My fighting weight is 270#.
Might as well enjoy it while I can!
