I know! When I got up just over 200, I was a bit embarrassed by how much weight I'd put on. I decided to lose weight, figuring that even if I couldn't get down to where I once was, there was no reason I couldn't be around 180 or so. So I started eating Cafe Rio salads and ended up here. Did bench reps at 155 yesterday (which I realize isn't a ton for the guys around here like Jay, but that's 94% of my body weight at this point for reps!) and banged out 14 miles on Saturday at a really good pace. So I'm feeling pretty good.Originally posted by falafel View PostThat's Alani Fua skinny!So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

EXXXXXXTRA MEAT!Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostGracey, if you are benching 155 you need to lay off the cafe rio salads and start eating smothered burritos. mix in some extra beef and wash it down with horchata for calories. What is going on here???Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

Are you saying I'm a weakling? I said it wasn't a lot! But I don't think reps at that weight is too bad given my body weight. Though I'm more interested in being able to keep up 15-17 mile runs on the weekend than lifting a lot.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostGracey, if you are benching 155 you need to lay off the cafe rio salads and start eating smothered burritos. mix in some extra beef and wash it down with horchata for calories.

Way to go. You and santos are motivating me. I'm quite a bit heavier than I was in June, and I need to get it back off.Originally posted by MarkGrace View Post165.8 at my weigh in yesterday.

I'm not saying that at all. A 45 and a 10 on each side of the bar is very respectable, especially since you say you can do more than one rep! make sure you use a spotter, keep it safe.Originally posted by MarkGrace View PostAre you saying I'm a weakling?

This was my first week bumping up to 155. Think I got 7, 6, 5. Unfortunately it's hard to really push since I lift on my own and thus practice unsafe sets.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostI'm not saying that at all.

I am heavier now than I have ever been. I am 5'10 and weigh 258. I weighed 165-170lbs at my lowest adult weight (3-6 mos. pre-marriage, 18 years ago). I have a gym membership but never use it (wife uses it religiously). I attempted P90X a couple years back, but quit after 5-6 weeks. I did have limited success and dropped from 240ish down to 215-220. I want to get down between 170-180lbs.
I am going to attempt Shaun T's Focus T25. It is a 10 week program with a series of 25min high intensity workouts. Not sure how it will compare to P90X or Insanity, but I'm going to give it a go. I'm also going to try to sustain a 1000 calorie daily deficit. My goal is to drop 1.5-2.0 lbs a week. Once I drop a little weight, I'll try to start making it to the gym to start some strength training. I'll be 40 in February and I've been making alot of changes as of late, a quasi mid-life makeover if you will. Getting in shape is just one part of the overall plan."I can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking my head up a bull's a$$, but I'd rather take a butcher's word for it". - Tommy Callahan III
