Yeah its all beer. I'm 6'2 and built like a linesman its pretty easy for me to gain weight comes off pretty quickly once I sort my **** and train hard.

I never knew coke was filtered on JFC. You also missed the ‘n’ in ‘snort.’

I'm doing my official weigh -in on Mondays. But as of today I am down 11 pounds.

I've been telling my wife that for decades.

It's not true, though. I'm not actually round.

Closer to a pear.

I'm more like a bell curve.

Not too bad basically 2 weeks in. Mostly water weight loss right now I'm sure since I'm severely restricting sugar and sugar retains a lot of water. But I am feeling it and seeing it in my waist size. Pants at size 40 waist starting to get a little looser. Feel like I have more energy. Started body weight exercises. Found it pretty hard to do 20 pushups which is bad. I have a pull-up bar in my garage and right now I'm using pushups, modified pullups, squats and lunges for strength training. After I see some progress beyond what body weight can do for me I'll move back to the gym. Walking around one of my warehouse a few times every day, trying to hit at least a couple of them for walkthroughs with facility management and that gets me 6-8k steps minimum up to a hell of a lot more depending on what's going on there. Then going for a walk with my wife every night once it cools off just a little, you know to like low-90s. lol

Not bad so far. But the hard part with this is getting in enough fiber so I'm trying to build my meals around keto-friendly veggies as much as I can but I might need to start taking a fiber supplement to help regulate BMs. Gets weird on keto. Cycles from one extreme to the other. No fun. And with IBS it can be much more extreme then you'd expect.

Anyway, that's my weekly report. We'll see where we end up in another week.

I will take it for a third week. It was harder with sugar cravings this week. We went to Utah to visit family for the holiday weekend, lots of driving but spent a couple days with family, and I was careful with my diet. Feeling stronger, so I imagine I will start to see this taper off and get to a smaller weekly number as I add muscle. My 4 week goal was 15 pounds, and I am on track for that easily.

One non-scale win to note is that I am going to have to buy a new belt pretty soon. I am at the last notch now.
