FatMan here. This picture was taken/text written on Saturday 9/22/2007. I am now at 195 pounds. These pictures are taken at the start of the new week and reflect my progress from the previous week. . To see how I look when this week is "over" you need to advance one week. I missed my goal of 195 lbs by my birthday of 9/15 but that is OK with me. I had a GREAT week of weight reduction. I lost down from my "plateau weight of 199 to 195. I reached 195 lbs on 9/21/2007. I also lost a total of 6.25" off my total measurements including 2" off my WAIST! It doesn't get much better than that. My "break through" strategy worked very nicely. I limited myself to one meal a day and worked out twice a day. I know I know maybe I am a little obsessed but hey if you have a goal worth going for then GO FOR IT! I had some very intense workouts this week, and along with my diet and all the water I drank it really helped me lose and tone up. I drank about 4 gallons of water this week. I have noticed a new problem area that I think might actually require the surgeon's knife. The skin under my chin is really looking droopy. But, other than that, for a 48 year old FatMan I am toning up fairly nicely.

This time is critical in the weight loss process. You want to replace as much fat with lean muscle mass as possible, and the only way to do that is to exercise, lift weights and make sure you eat protein, and take some protein supplements as necessary. My leg/hip seems to be doing OK since I started taking Glucosamine Chondroitin & MSM complex. That might be all mental but hey it seems to be working for me.

For my birthday I celebrated by buying me some size 36" waist painters pants. They even fit. Wow, that is a real milestone. I have a few pics below so you can see for yourself.

As always I invite all you fellow fat people to lose weight with me. Pick your own diet and timeframe to lose your weight. No pressure, just help. Let's lose weight together.  You can follow my thoughts and progress on my daily blog. The FatMan is walking the walk on weight loss talk.
