Man, I look fat in that picture....
baldbiker:
Last night I found this forum, and have already posted in the boards on a different topic...
After I posted I needed to put up a pic of the new sly look. While thumbing through 100's of pics on my pc I saw one of myself from the side and GOOD LORD - I've gotten huge!! ???
Funny how when I look in the mirror I see myself for all the good (I'm really not conceited - I promise :/O) but when I look at pictures taken when I'm not ready ( and by ready I mean sucking the gut in) I look huge.
Well, big motivation for me to start losing weight.
Mind over matter.... so I am going to start a new thread here to track my weight loss.
No shame in my game so I will make sure to include my weigh in's once a week.
If anyone wants to join me - come along - it's going to be a fun ride!

I started eating better and exercising more myself. I lost 10 lbs in the last 15 days (I've been real aggressive). I've been getting encouragement and accountability from my good friend that I check in with once a week like you are planning. It helps to have someone to answer to, to keep you on track.

Welcome Baldbiker. Posting things like this in the Fitness/Diet section is a good way to hold yourself accountable.
Back in October 2007, I weighed in at 211. I know that's not fat for a 6' tall man, but it was the heaviest I've ever been. Well, even through the holidays I lost weight. Holding yourself accountable is a good thing, no matter what the endeavor is.
FYI, although I haven't updated the Schro Fitness thread, I'm hanging tough at 200 lbs, and that was after an insane birthday celebration / golfing / drinking & dining weekend.

Awesome bro...what ever gets you in shape...btw from the pic you don't look real over weight.
Anyways if you really want to monitor results in a good way, shave off the goat and you can totally see how the weight loss is affecting your appearance...I find the goat helps too much in hiding weight or any facial hair for that matter..
until you reach "your goal" shave off the goat and go "Mr. Clean" till you reach it!
GOOD motivation...
especially if you LOVE your goat! ;)

Ohhhh, I really like having my facial hair. I just trimmed my full beard down to a goatee and moustache. But if it would help you to lose weight, it might be helpful. But I have been losing weight even with my facial hair. But I will now post my update on my site!
