i don't think fishing is exercise that will really help with weight loss.

unless you jog/run to your spots.... & jog in place while fishing...

246 this morning down 21 pounds
have changed my eating habits- no bread, no milk and verry little cheese. smaller portions and eating lots of fruit and veggies has been big for me. i have a fairly physical job and make myself work out every nite including at least 25 minutes on the treadmill and 3-3 minute rounds on the heavybag.
i'm still fat, no portly, but i can see my feet again and if i'm able to keep this up i'll be in the market for new waders this spring!

according to research done by my wife fishing will burn around 114 calories per half hour. don't know if that's surfcasting or working a stream or what. i would think a long distance walk to that special spot would increase that number.

working out 6x a week on an elliptical for 30 mins a day, and cut out all junk food. eating, lots of veggies and lots of water, plus a daily multivitamin.

60 % of the time, it works every time.

293.5 so down total just shy of 10 pounds from the start - a bit behind the pace I was looking for

More of eating habits than excercise - haven't planned that part out yet.

All updated.....new Totals are in Blue.

Still need to hear from Swimmer, Whiplash, and Spinncognito

over 175 lbs lost so far.

Still have plenty of time 3 more months so even if your only doing a couple of pounds a week 9which is fine)....thats 26 lbs. lost by the end, so keep it up

OK
as of this morning I am UP 3 lbs to 244.
I am thinking that the starvation diet started on about April 1st may be a better idea for me. I have just not been able to change my ways.
Just got back from shopping for superbowl food... Things not looking good...


Kev, I will put my plug in the mail on Monday...
