Progress Report: Week 28
Weight: 230.0lbs
BMI: 33.5
Weight loss so far:  .2 lbs lost since last week, 35 lbs lost total

Look ma, weight loss!

My only complaint is that I apparently gained .2 lbs after my shower, because it was reading 229.8 for a few brief moments :-P

All in all, coming off of a 6lb loss last week, I’ll take it.  A loss is a loss :)

And frankly, this week, I couldn’t have really given a crap anyway. I’m still a bit high off of the Holy crap you’re running a half marathon and you ran another 5k buzz, so for this week in particular, the number really IS just a number.

So what’s in store for this week?  A bit more C25K, a bit more running in general…maybe some hill running, and just all around trying to go through each day as awesomely as possible :)

How are YOUR weight loss and training efforts going?

  1. YES a loss is a loss.

    Outwardly things seem to be going well…internally I am in a funk…working on getting out of it.

  2. Donna says:

    Dude, progress is progress. I always figure even a .2 loss is better than a .2 gain. Roll with it and you’ll see a bigger number next week. Keep up the good work.

  3. showers only make us heavier – what good are they for you anyway! ha.

    Yeah – the number is not your 6 lbs…but hey – you lost freakin’ six pounds last week!

    keep it up.

  4. David H. says:

    I love hitting exact numbers like that. They’re a rarity. You can look back at 4/20/10 as the last day in your 230s … can’t really forget a date like that or that specific number.

    Coming off a 6 pound loss, this is great! It’s cool that your scale read exactly 230, you’ve lost exactly 35 pounds, and you’re high as a kite on your 5k/half/full marathon stuff. What a nice day!

    Oh, and I love the drops of water on the scale for “after shower special effects!” How Hollywood of you, Mr. Steve! :-)

  6. Danielle says:

    I’m in a funk workout wise. I did bootcamp yesterday… but just couldn’t get into the zone. I need to step it up but get frustrated when I feel as though it doesn’t matter. agh. Congrats on the 6 though, thats phenom!
    Oh, and totally jealous of all yall running your 5k’s. I’m gonna get there…hopefully.

    You’re doing such a fantastic job, Steve! And I noticed the water drops like Erin – nice special effects indeed! (And easy to do I imagine). :-)

    I’m sure you totally absorbed .2 in the shower, LOL! Stupid shower.
    I think my new 5k goal might be to beat you!

  10. Alison says:

    It’s all that hair you have being wet :p

    Well done, 6 pounds is well amazing! I’m plugging away I have a 10k race this sunday and a half marathon on May 22nd, never mind the fact I have never run more than 5 miles! :D I plan to walk/run the half in May and run one completely in September. My big goal this year a race every month, to keep up the motivation.

  12. Paul says:

    6 sounds is great! And those .2’s add up.

    A half-marathon is a great goal. Good luck!

  13. Lynne Garcia says:

    I agree that it’s a huge success to lose 6 weeks last week and then keep it off. You are doing so well. Keep it up.

    Oh. I forgot. Did you? DON’T ’cause you are!

  16. Meg says:

    6lbs in a week is awesome! Even with a .2lb shower gain ;)

    And you’re a running machine! Keep up the great progress!

  17. Rob Dyess says:

  18. Well done! Every loss counts and you’re another step closer to your goal. Stay motivated and empowered, you’re doing a great job!

  19. Jess says:

    Pft “maybe some hill running.” That maybe will turn into a “yes” later, unless your headache is really bad. I know you, Mr. Intensity.

    Anyway, nice job on keeping the six pounds off and even with a loss. Your body probably needs some time to catch up. HOLY CRAP about the half marathon is right! It’s going to be AWESOME. And yes, I will make you a sweet looking sign that you can print out and make into a cardboard Jess and put on the side of the track :)

    229.8 is official! The scale showed it, it can’t take it back!! hahaahaha You could’ve leaned the wrong way on the scale or something for that much of a difference. The big picture is you’re still losing and it’s awesome! You’re a rockstar, Steve.

  21. You are an inspiration!

  22. Brandon says:

    Alright, I just might catch up with you again this week :)

    Just kidding man, nice work again this week. You’re rocking it with all your running and spur-of-the-moment 5K’s!
    Brandon´s last blog ..It’s POM-errific!

  23. Miz says:

    did you drink your shower?
    just
    you know
    FYI
    that may impede yer loss :)

  24. hey Steve! congrats on the loss!! I *never* weigh after the shower, ever. But, uh, my hair is way longer than yours and I think it weighs like 10 lbs wet!!

    I myself am having a great week so far, but I’m not really weighing at the moment – been on a really long plateau and the scale was pissing me off so I took a sledgehammer to it… (a mental one)

  25. Jessie says:

    Way to go Steve, that is awesome. You’re doing it pal! I’m excited for you running the half marathon, the Music City Marathon is this weekend and I am mad that I didn’t sign up. :/ I think I could have ran it! (Okay, well MOST of it. :)

  26. Lisa says:

    Hey, a loss is a loss! Good job! I weigh in next week and I’m hoping for a loss as well.

  27. Nice! I like the even # you’ve reached! Training for this half is going to make your weight-loss really go, I swear! Keep up the good work!
