Default Four months, massive change!

  • Almost 50 lbs. I'm building muscle, so I don't look at the scale much
  • Extended induction
  • Weights for an hour x 3 per week (pretty hardcore now, lifting the 90lb dumbbells on back exercises)
  • Level 18 on the Elliptical for an hour x 3 per week
  • The gym manager even made me member of the month, my profile and pic is up on their bulletin board!
  • Size 54 pants to a loose size 44
__________________
What I do:
Elliptical gym machine 1 hr Tue-Sun
At 320, switch to cycling on my Trek 500
2 filtered containers water/day
Daily salads/veggies


Goals:

Stop needing High Blood Pressure meds - DONE!
Workout in a XXXL shirt
- DONE!
Workout in a XXL shirt
Workout in a XL shirt
270 on the scales

Wow, John, 50#s in four months is HUGE!! And your commitment to your workouts is super commendable! I'm really amazed at your new clothing sizes...going from 54 to 44? Wowza. Congrats on a job well done and I look forward to reading more inspiring reports from you in the future.

p.s. Are you still dancing? That's great exercise too...plus a whole lot of fun.
