On my end...reminder...Starting point was Oct 2009 at 41 years old, I was 261.7...now at 43 I am at 180.0 !!! A few weeks ago, I was down to 174.5 (But I was seriously depleted)...I refueled, and regained my focus.
I tend to measure in a 10 pound range, depending on food/fluid needs/intake.
So what workouts is everyone doing?
On my end, I'm running/walking about 10-20 miles per week + Currently on Round 2 of "Insanity" Hoping to transition into a more intense resistance routine in a couple of months...perhaps some P90X...cheaper to workout at home.
Again, congrats on all of yall for your success and sticking to the fitness!!!

When I get to where I want to be in terms of weight, I think I'll give Insanity (or Insanity-lite) a shot, but there's no way I can do it right now due to my restrictive diet (1400-1500 calories a day).
Starting literally today, I'm trying something new. Three day cycles. Day one, run about a mile (100 calories). Day two, a bodyweight exercise routine: 100 jumping jacks, 25 squats, 25 lunges, 75 crunches, 10 burpees, increasing those reps as I go along. Day three, weights for my arms/chest, which I'm not getting a lot of otherwise (I'm getting enough ab and leg work on day 2). Very simple dumbbell stuff.
What I'm not sure is whether to take a day of rest after one cycle or two. If I did two cycles, I could basically make Sunday a take-it-easy day and keep my days consistent each week. Votes?
