Need everyone to check in, right? Oh, stuck at 307 - probably ain't me

This weekend I'll get the totals done, Sanity permitting.

Send a message via AIM to Raider Ronnie
Started out @ 218
Seemed to leveled out @ 200 and staying there.
Wanted to get down under 190, I guess some form of exercise is needed and not just changing eating habits.

Is anyone going to win this?

I think I promised a neat BigFish plug to the winner if they're over 35 down.

I weighed 235 this February when I was diagnosed with Type-2 diabetes.

This morning I was down to 192.5

I'm not in this little contest, but I think it's something that I can brag about anyway.

who won?


Mike, sorry to here that, it's not the way we'd want to lose weight. I hope you do well. I don't know anything about type 2 diabetes but I'm sure you'd rather not have it.

My wife has type 2 diabetes - it does a number on the energy level and stamina. I was pretty fat for a while there. I lost 55 pounds and now weigh what I did when I got married twenty years ago.

I've been REALLY bad - not gaining weight (actually lost a few more) - just getting this thing put to bed .

I burned the sweatpants in a self-devised ritual, the details of which are somewhat disturbing. Then, naked, I went into the attic and pulled down some retro-wear from the George Herbert Walker Bush administration....

JRedfly but I have been absolutely awful - to the point of negligence - in officially addressing that

Thanks!

Thanks John for putting together the Portly Angler contest and everyone that participated. It gave me the incentive to get started and keep it going. Down 40 total at this point but would like to drop another 10 to 20. I have been running but the main thing has been trying to eat right and portion control. It feels good but it is all about getting healthy so I will be around for my family and setting a good example for my kids. I hope you will be running the contest in 2011. Wishing everyone goodluck!

Thanks Spence but I only lost 21 pounds during the contest - I did the other 19 over the summer.

Edit: didn't realize this thing is about to be over. nevermind...

Can I still enter the competition or is it too late? If so I totally understand.

2 years ago I didn't enter the competition but ended up losing 70 lbs. But after 3 months of binge drinking and poor eating habits while living in the Keys I ended up putting back on some poundage. THis year at Thanksgiving I was pushing 250. Now i'm down to 230-235. not weighing myself again until Jan. 1st, but my goal is to get down to 205 again.

Let me know if I can enter. If not, it's cool. Good luck to all
