    I want to lose 50, but don't see it happening any time soon. My metabolism really slowed down and then I quit smoking. Gained 70 and lost 20 of it back.

    I am at a solid 215 and feel good. I think 215 is a good, healthy weight for me.

    I'm 6', 235 pounds. By the end of the summer, I will most likely be down to 210-215. Happens every summer. Working 12-13 hour days in 100 degree weather, eating grilled chicken salads for lunch everyday will do that to a guy.

    I busted up my leg pretty bad In our spring camp. put me in a wheelchair for almost all of the summer. I was eating about 5 thousand calories a day and not gaining a single pound. once I was in the chair and my eating habit was over double what it was suppose to be I went from 228 to 3 bills by summers end. Was out for the entire football season so any motivation I had was gone.. Now that the heat is coming and I want to start applying for Reserves and some community service officer positions, My motivation is back at an all time high. I would like to be back down in the 220's by mid summer. I slowly cut down to about 1500 calories a day and have been doing the P90x DVD's, tomorrow with by me fourth day. Those DVD's will kill you and I recommend them to anyone who can carve out an hour a day for them. I can already tell that 90 days of this will be killer!
