“Be afraid blubber, be very afraid” – I have just chanted that to my excess baggage and it jiggled in fear!
I too have to give up the fizzy drinks. I turn to Diet Coke as a sugar fix and it’s so so very bad for you.
It’s great to have you here DCUD.

We’re about the same height. While I am more than 100 pounds overweight, sometimes I don’t look as bad as I would if say, I were a foot shorter. Thank God for small miracles.

No sweat on being late, we’ll hold your spot. Thanks!

That’s a good idea. I should’ve thought of offering that as an option.

Welcome to the first WWI Michael. Reducing your waist size is a fine goal in itself and probably more beneficial than worrying about scale weight.

I love the mini goals too, definitely achievable and realistic.

Tuesdays didn’t work for us either

Thanks for joining in.

Late is fine. It’s better than fine.

Glad you could make the party.

I’ve heard this quite a lot from taller men, 6’2” and above, people are fooled by the height and tend not to register a little fat around the middle. The same doesn’t seem to work for me at 6ft nothing, with my mouth wide open.

Good job with the exercise and the soda! I feel lucky that I gave the sodas up years ago and I’ve never really gone back to them, save for the odd one every six months or so.

LOL at your confused scale

I weighed in last night at home before traveling today, so will keep weighing in on Tuesday nights but keeping the results a secret until I post them here with everyone else on Wednesdays. That, and “Tuesday Weigh In” just doesn’t have the same ring.

Height: 5’9″
Weigh-in #1: November 19: 173.8 pounds
Goals: Not sure yet on weight goal, but I’m aiming to get from a 36 waist pant size back to 34, then 32.

Mini goals this week:
1) Work out 3 times
2) Only coffee… no “extras” in the drinks (no lattes, mochas, etc.)

People always are jealous that I am tall and think of me naturally skinny. Well that just means my fat is disributed across 6 feet and 3 inches. But my fat is sitting on my belly. Not pretty I tell ya.

I am joining in late and have yet to post my weight on my site – but I am in it.

Height: 6’3″
Weight: Between 205 and 210 – my scale sucks and is confused
Goals: Buck 95 please

Mini goal this week:
1) Work out 3 times
2) Start eliminating sugared sodas

I have worked out 2 times so far and have had only 1 sugared soda (my week started Monday).

Be afraid blubber, be very afraid.
