It helps to remember why I am doing this. In case I haven't said it it is for my kids and wife. I am tired of them seeing as a fat bastard. I also realize that as I get older it doesn't get any easier.
One thing that is helping in the short term is the fact that my XXL tee shirts fit me again. I never stopped wearing them but now they actual fit. Gone are the days of a poly cotton sausage casing. It is nice not to have to use the old fat guy tricks like stretching out your shirt before you put it on. Another thing I had to do is add a hole in my belt in the right direction. I understand that the leather is stretching but also my waist is shrinking.
I finally decided what my weigh in day is. I am going to use the morning of my cheat day. That is the only way to be consistent until I decide to start taking measurements.
Saturday weigh in:
285.5 lbs.
Loss to date:
18 lbs.
