Freezing Saddles Side Bet #FSSB Week 1

[dasgeh]

Sure, I’ll bite. 166 last night. Target: less…

[TrishN]

Even as a vegetarian I found that pretty funny.

Got a suggestion for a side bet. Most segments flagged.

206.3 this morning. Want to get down to 165 for bikini season.

Checked in at 198.9 today, despite eating what feels like 3k calories a day for the first three weeks of the year.

205 exactly this morning. No, there is no way I’m going to maintain this rate of weight loss.

I suppose this is a good day to start this competition. What with eating much too much of a turkey, plus some other odds and ends, yesterday, I started today at 210 lbs.

I find it hard to believe that you are only eating 3k calories per day.

Maybe he was just including the snacks. Mealtime calories are different!

When I’m at work it’s pretty easy to manage (there’s an app for that!) but on the weekend, yeah. Saturdays and Sundays are a haze of undisciplined binge eating. So maybe I’m averaging 3k.

Why not.

174 as of 1/3/14. Target: Less than that.

This comes as a surprise to me, but 169 today. Must be all those calories I burned cursing at the ice.

Yes. Yes, it does.:mad::mad:

I’m pretty darn sure I’m not going to win this challenge (because I’ve done essentially nothing to amend my foolish dietary ways) but I was really surprised to see that my scale read 182.5 tonight when I got home, compared with my 188 on Jan 2. Who knew? I find it encouraging. I’m sure all of you more disciplined folks on this challenge can do even better! (I might as well be a cheerleader, if I can’t win…)

[cvcalhoun]

Something about this challenge is clearly having good effects. I’m down from 210 to 200 as of this morning. By comparison, I’d lost only 7 lbs. in the whole preceding year!

I hate you.

202 on 1/2 (forgot to post) to 206 today — can there be a prize for largest weight gain?
