Yeah that's how I look....well not yet...

(googleimages)

Yeah okay you caught me I'm lying...not quite what I look like, I have stubble....okay fine I look nothing like that, but a boy's gotta have a goal.

Alright I don't really hope to look like that, I mean until someone is writing me checks based upon my appearance I don't care to look like that. I like beer too much!

Speaking of beer, it's been 3 weeks now I haven't allowed myself any beer! Now I'm no alcholic but I'd like to consider myself a micro-brewery specialist....ugh and a new one just opened up in my area. GET HERE 25lbs LOST! <---Going to celebrate by putting on a pound or two in beer haha!

So how close am I?! We'll see tomorrow morning, currently I'm setting officially at 19lbs down in 2 weeks...hoping to break 20 for sure but 22 is my realistic goal. That puts me within reach of 25 in 4 weeks!

How is he doing this?

A WHOLE LOT OF THIS:

Also no added sugar in any form if I can help it!

Your boy is also burning up the eliptical, off-brand total gym (you know the Chuck Norris machine!) and believe it or not a shake-a-weight <-----thing is ridiculous!!!

So with tomorrow's weigh in you can bet tonight is going to be a hard night in the exercise department!! So if any of you are going out tonight, please have a cold one for me!

So you've lost weight...big deal!

So I'm two and a half weeks into a weight loss challenge at my place of employment...I hate those things. I think they're stupid, waste of time and only a temporary fix. That said this one's for money so obviously I'm in it to win it!!! After two weeks I've lost 19lbs and a little over 7% of my original weight, which is a good 2% more than the second place person.

Feeling good about myself I constantly strive to not eat junk food, have steamed veggies and no carbs after breakfast and continue to force myself to working out downstairs in the man cave/workout room.

So this entire time I've been striving to lose weight my wife has been sick for most of it. She has ran fevers in the high 102 range and even touched 103. She's barely ate anything but jello and ice cream (occasional Mac & Cheese on the good days) and has lost over 12lbs trying and doing nothing....maybe I'm going about this all wrong. Is it smart bad of me to want to attempt at contracting this unknown illness from her just to lose some more weight?!

I guess my decision will come this Wednesday, the dreaded weigh-in day....of which it's looking like if I stay the same as last week I'll be happy.

Perhaps if this whole healthy eating thing and exercise doesn't keep me ahead of the pack I'll just simply contract an illness or look into that aneroxic thing (seriously kidding...I think) haha!
