Today I was 299.4 on the scale. Down 32 lbs since the end of feb. And below 300 lbs for the first time in about 5 years.

Nice work!

It's weird, because the last few days I've been eating a bit more, I've been hungry, and I literally lost 5 lbs since last thursday eating more.

Whatever. Feels good.

your metabolism starts to speed up as you do more...you body will burn more calories more effectively because you have more muscle and you're working out...it's all good...keep it up

Weighed in at 291 today. That makes 40 lbs since end of feb, and I am halfway to my 1st goal of 250.

The shorts that were too tight for me a month ago are now loose as hell and I'm going to actually have to buy new clothes.

Kudos! I've noticed I needed to replace pants and stuff way faster/more often than shirts.

So in addition to my normal three day a week jogging routine I've been doing the following:

-Shooting hoops (just playing 21 and junk in my friends driveway)

-Golfing once or twice a week (plus an occasional bucket of balls)

-I added hiking to my routine this week, probably went 15-20 miles.

I've got a very important goal that I set almost a year ago and need to lose 20 pounds in about 10 weeks to make it happen. Even though my current pace has been good, it hasn't been that fast. So I'm going hardcore for a while.
