    More progress:

    Can't even describe how good this has felt. At 190-192 I hated tucking in my shirts. Always had to suck my stomach in, had bad posture as well. I love tucking in button down shirts now; even if I'm just relaxing my stomach is so much smaller than it was, and if I stand holding my stomach in and tightening my abs, it's incredibly easy and I can feel a better posture that way.

    • Welcome to the 170lb club!pango
    • Thanks again! It feels fantastic. Cut back on sugar big time. Log all my food. Less beer. More protein, better fats. 5-6 days exercise a week.mg33
    • sarahfailin - Most of that was with a calorie target of 1,600 a day, which is pretty low. I'm past that now, up around 2,500 a day, but honestly, I don't hitmg33
    • that most days and feel perfectly fine. I LOVE not feeling bloated, which helps you not want to gorge on stuff.mg33
    • That 1,600 daily calorie total lasted maybe 2 1/2 months.mg33
    • I'm a little obsessed with weighing myself regularly, but I like to do it before bed for the amusement of what you lose overnight.mg33
    • I only log weight in the morning, post-dump.mg33
    • What are you using to track everything?pango
    • well done dude.lowimpakt
    • You log your food that fast? It normally takes me a few hours after I eat.futurefood
    • well done - I am where you were and need to be where you are now... has given me some encouragement. My belly does my head in.fadein11
    • Pango, it's the app called "Lose It!" I track everything I eat, log it quickly, and once you've logged it, it's there to grab in the future.mg33
    • Has a bar code scanner, you can add recipe items. There's not a single thing I don't log.mg33
    • And, it helps me avoid stuff that's too hard to log (ex: unsure of ingredients) and more frequently eat really healthy things I have logged.mg33
    • I'm post some screenshots later today of a full day logged, nutrition screen, etc. I have the $40 year membership, lots of online data and analysis.mg33
    • Thanks fadein11! I'm happy to give any encouragement I can or tips.mg33
    • Your start weight is my goal weight.i_monk
