So the weight has been coming off...VERY SLOWLY. But the other day I weighed myself and I was actually under 260. I was like...259.3 or something like that. But then a couple days later I was back to 261, 262 again. But yeah...it keeps coming off in little bits. I'm not working too hard at it...but I am still watching what I eat. Not doing Keto right now. But more of a Paleo/Whole Food approach. Pretty much no grains or sugar...though I will bend a little on this (had a small bowl of ice cream last night). The trick is...if I am going to eat something that I shouldn't eat...it better be something REALLY good. Not just anything. I have done some other changes, one of the biggest ones is that I am lowering (not getting rid of) my saturated fat intake and increasing my monounsaturated fats (olive oil specifically). The other thing is that I am just flat out refusing to eat what I call industrial oils (canola, corn, vegetable, soybean oils and others). More specifically, I WILL NOT consume soybean oil. There is just so much wrong with that and can really screw up a man's metabolism and endocrine system especially (think estrogen producing). Going out to eat is hard to control these, so I do the best I can. I just make sure that I limit where I can.

Probably longer post than you wanted. But while the weight is coming off slowly, I am seeing changes in body composition. Waist is getting smaller, chest a little more defined, faced becoming leaner. My face is probably the most noticeable! Things are definitely looking up for me! I had to think back to when I weighed this little...and I honestly think it was around 1999 or 2000. ALMOST 20 YEARS AGO!!!! :oops: It's crazy!
 
Too light/ too much white for me.... but looks good on you!
