TNL Weight Loss Challenge

Today the scale went down to 172.4...the pounds are dropping, the inches are dropping. For a while there wasn't any progress on the scale, but more adjustments to diet (adding a little more protein, getting rid of a few carbs, not cheating as bad on the weekend) and exercise (33% more weight training, switching to free weights, opting for the treadmill instead) helped kick everything in gear.

My new target is 163...I think going to 155, my old weight, would result in more muscle loss than I am willing to accept. That's probably 18 weeks off or more. After that, I am going to reassess the situation...see if I want to add mass again

Do you think you're going to gain weight, or lose it faster?

I've lost some weight but I still don't look how I want to. I'm not keeping track of my weight in any way. When I look right I'll know.

I got thrown down by a dude a practice one time and let one rip. Didn't even fell like I had one coming along. Embarrassing, but whatever.

I think I'll get back to the 170-172 range and stay there. I can certainly shed some more fat but I don't expect more weight loss. I'm happy with this weight, though my clothes are too big now. It's much more comfortable than the days when I walked around as heavy as 185-200. When I see pics from those days, I really notice how fat my face was even though I always thought I was a buff dude.

For dinner last night I had:

3oz Broccoli
3oz Green Onions
4oz Carrots
3oz Brussels Sprouts
6oz Summer Squash (yellow)
6oz Asparagus
8oz Soy Tempeh.

All of this was steamed in my bamboo steamer for ten minutes andtopped off with a tablespoon of mushroom flavoured soy sauce and a couple shakes of black sesame seeds.

Then I had a 7oz apple for dessert.

do you suppliment protein into your diet at all?

8oz of soy tempeh has 44g of soy protein in it.

I eat a carefully researched and very balanced and healthy diet these days.

and then I fuck your mom.

Isn't soy protein supposed to up your estrogen levels?

I'm so manly it doesn't even matter.
