So... I have been losing weight like crazy. Here to date: A month ago, I started at 245 lbs. As soon as I started to lose weight, I cut down to 235 lbs., and that was a week in. Eventually, I hit a plateau. I was losing body fat, not losing weight, but gaining muscle. So, I started stepping up the workouts, on top of cutting portions of food intake in. Then, the downhill started. I started noticing that I actually have a neck, and that is a pretty big thing for me. Usually, when I see an overweight person, all I see is head and shoulders, no neck. I started to get there. My pectoral area was also becoming where I had bigger man titties than A-cups. Now that I am down weight, I am actually developing pecs. I also started wearing 36 pants, when a month ago, I was in 38s, pushing the 40s. Weight to date: 225 lbs. First goal is almost complete, which was 220 lbs by Christmas. I plan to get down to 200 lbs, so that way, I can build a good core, but still have the frame to handle muscle weight. I should be down to 175 lbs, but I would be solidly satisfied with 200. I like knowing that I can get on an eliptical and go straight for 30 minutes on the weight loss program. It makes me even happier that I can jog a 10-12 minute mile. Go me...
I can do this... usually when I work out I chant to myself:
200 pounds, lean, mean, and sexy.
Trust me, it works!![biggrin](https://dz3ixmv6nok8z.cloudfront.net/static/img/emoticons/biggrin.b730b6165809.gif)
