Randomguy Posted November 30, 2017 Share #1 Posted November 30, 2017 I have. I gained a bunch of weight in VA and OH, lost a bunch of it in CO, and then gained it back in CO. I was good yesterday for the most part, and will abstain until dinner, I think. My pants have been shrinking, you see, so I will drop 10lbs by the end of the month.

Zephyr Posted November 30, 2017 Share #3 Posted November 30, 2017 There was a birthday this week past at our house. Tradition is a triple layer chocolate cake (from scratch) with chocolate icing (from scratch). It was perfect with five of us. Now with just me and WofZeph here, and her only wanting 'a little piece with coffee', I have bore the brunt of the calories. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisL Posted November 30, 2017 Share #14 Posted November 30, 2017 We had two Thanksgivings and so I figured my weight would go up a bit and it did go up a fee lbs but I got it back down. 210 today which is my new normal.

The 34s started getting too snug so I went to 36s. Then when I needed some new jeans I tried on some 36s and they wouldn’t stay up. I ended up back with 34s. I remembered sticking some of the 34s that were in good condition in the closet in the spare room. I got them out and nope, still too tight. The new 34s fit perfect, the old ones nope.

I agree sizing has changed. I weighed 190 about 10 years ago and have some 36 pants from then. I can wear them but they are a bit snug.

2Far ★ Posted November 30, 2017 Share #18 Posted November 30, 2017 Actually, I'm down a little bit from the first of the month. Overall, I'm down about 10 since my recent peak (and still down 34 from my all time high). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randomguy Posted November 30, 2017 Author Share #19 Posted November 30, 2017 Ok, I think I can do this without too much difficulty. For starters, I had been eating a lot of super-salty stuff, so if I back off from that I should be able to drop a pound or so just from that, and I had been eating a lot of grainy things and sugar, and when I stop those, I generally drop 2-3 lbs within 3-4 days. Not eating during the day today is another half pound right there, as I usually eat 3000-4000 calories a day. That means that right off the bat, I can be down 4 - 4 1/2 pounds in the few few days, so that is a good head of steam to start things off with.

It is a special treat, because it is two massive Reeses King Cups. I wish they had the ones with peanuts in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you give them money they're either going to piss it up the wall or up their nose. I offer to fetch them a drink or a bite, if they tell you to feck off you know all you need to.
