Congrats Bill!  I owe you a cd.  I'm also exactly down 21 lbs as well.  You sent me enough though, no need to send me another cd! :D

I lost 4.4 lbs in the last couple of weeks.

Cooooooooooolness, my friend.  Are you on spring break yet?  I am finding that I am eating a bit more on vacation.  I'd better go get on the bike.  I have begun weighing myself mid-week to see if I am staying within striking distance.  Not sure if this is a good thing to do, but it seems to working so far.

Just got back from spring break.  I lost a bunch because I was eating home cooked food instead of fast food.  Probably put on some weight from the decadent eating on my final job interview in Florida though.

Florida?  Did I miss a post?  What does Florida have that Oklah.... (as Dave put it about the Romans, never mind ;D).

Well, OK, I was never fat, but I have gone down from 80kg to 72 kg.
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

211 fat increments.

What is your lowest in the last year or so, Dave?

Did that suit you, or are you better off at your height at the 211 mark?

The less the better. 196 would be swell. 211 is pushing toward the Overweight Zone.

Thought I'd chime in here as someone in the process of dropping pounds.

Started my latest (of many) weight loss campaigns in October 2011 at 260 lbs (I'm 6-foot-2).

Most recent weigh-in was about two weeks ago: 223 lbs.  My ultimate goal is 180 - that's what I weighed at my wedding 12 years ago!  The weight loss has come from that tried-and-true combination of diet and exercise.  Tracking my food intake here helped: http://www.myfitnesspal.com  Having an elliptical trainer in our spare bedroom is a bonus, too, as is plenty of classical music on the iPod. :)

I've been less diligent in recent months, but I hope to get back on track very soon.  We just booked a family vacation to Maui in July - that should certainly provide me some motivation! :D

So much great music, so little time...

We have considered an elliptical.  What type do you have?  (and congrats on the weight loss).

Congrats classicalgeek on the weight loss!  I used an elliptical for a spell several years ago, I lost alot of weight fast.  It's a great machine.
