So maybe an occasional beer might not be too bad if occasional is not daily!
I like that plan!!!
Seriously, I'm at a point where I can pretty much eat (AND DRINK) anything I want right now, and I'm not gaining weight.
When I get down to the weight I'm after (200 to 210), there's a lot of leeway for maintaining that weight.
I've done cleanses/detoxes before (including Colon Cleansing)....I'm not talking "diets" or "fitness challenges".....but CLEANSING/DETOXIFYING...
and it is such a drastic and revolutionary improvement in physical, mental, emotional (yea SPIRITUAL) well being AND ENERGY, that the "groove" is hard to sabatage....and maintenance becomes a matter of perpetuating FEELING AWESOME.
My last cleanse/detox was sabataged by SEVERE disappoints (and depression) that converged and got me all outa sorts last year. So now that those issues have been successfully surmounted, I'm excited for this cleansing/detoxifying experience with these new, cutting-edge strategies and products.

OK....well I lost the 15 lbs to fulfill the SLY bargain I made with my wife back in November. (for those of you who give a sh**, that "bargain" is explained on page one of this thread)
Thank goodness we reworked the bargain and agreed that I shave in January....AHEAD of the bargain.
I'm goin' to the gym 4 times a week....doing 45 minutes of spinning (stationary cycling class) followed by weight training--cycling through 3 sets of body parts as follows:
Monday: Spinning + Biceps & Triceps
Wednesday: Spinning + Chest & Back
Friday: Spinning + Shoulders & Abs
Saturday: Spinning + Biceps & Triceps
As far as the meals and nutrition....the IsaGenix program is ROCKIN'!!!......but it does have me "on the wagon" until we meet in July.....so I'll be celebrating some significant weight loss, bruthas, when we meet

Congratulations!!
Spinning is tough work. I've been doing some of it myself lately -- with my PT standing over me to make sure I don't slack off.
What is the IsaGenix program? I know you've probably posted about it before but I must have missed it. I'm trying to break another plateau.
Well done, bro!!!

Congrats bro. I'm thinking of purchasing a stationary bike myself. Is it just as good of a way to burn fat as jogging is? I don't really like going and running. I wanted something for the inside so I don't have to worry about weather and whatever.

Yeah...I personally need the accountability of an instructor barking out different things to do.....keeps it interesting and challenging. -

Tell you the truth, I have found myself to be the strictest instructor that I can have. add the motivation of a little Drowning Pool in the headset, good stuff right there

Robmeister-- I read about the IsaGenix program and would like to pass this to you that I posted on Hot Cajun's Challenge. Sorry for the copy paste thing but too tired to type it all out again... Might wanna check it out though:
Guys, I have a book that I borrowed from a friend who was dropping their mid section at a noticeable pace. The book is called YOU: On A Diet The Owner's Manual for Waist Management Written by Michael F. Roizen, MD and another MD. Anyway, I am 6'2 and around, well maybe 185 now and have never needed to diet, but I wanted to get rid of my love handles in the mid section. This book has you measure your waist and judge yourself that way, by inches and not weight. It explains how to eat healthy and lose your waist. One key I see is to eating nuts (be nice) for snacks and also before you eat your meal. I like almonds, so I throw a handfull in my mouth before every meal. It helps to fill you up quicker. Anyway, might be some good reading material if you want to lose some inches. Hot Cajun, this might be something to help you, the biggest loss comes in 2 weeks before you taper out to a slower decline.
Also let me add, I have no investments in this book... It is helping me become more sly, so who else would I share this info with!! -

Thanks, Champ....IsaGenix does incorporate unsalted almonds as an appetite supressant.
I've lost 19 lbs.....down to 234 from 253.
Now, generally I lose a 1/2 inch in my waist for every 5 lbs.....but I have lost 3 inches in my waist......so the waist is the better indicator in my case as well.
Been doing the "One Day Off" every 2 weeks instead of every week...where I enjoy whatever the hell it is I've been missing/craving...including Ketel One martini's.
Since starting my bartending gig at Embassy Suites my spinning classes have gotten interupted.....but, being on my feet for 10 to 12 hours a day....huffin' beer kegs & rushin' around, I've actually lost about 6 lbs from that.
Hope to get down to 210 or below by July.
