Not as popular as the What ya eating thread.

Should we tell Sam that the weight loss challenge is over?

But yet you have more posts in the thread than most.

True… results from the past month? @Luecke3262 who won the last month?

 

[woodpusher]

Some slight upward movement this week, but I expect that to go away after a downward movement this morning.

 

[woodpusher]

Stayed the same as last week, right at 153.8 lbs.

 

[Luecke3262]

Apologies for the ONE MONTH LONG DELAY! No good excuses....

The June winner of a soap and aftershave from @Joe Hackett was @b1hart (Because @Quijote & @Spider had already won) and the overall Winner of the 2022 Weight loss challenge having lost 21.53% of his body weight was @Spider who will receive a gift of some sort from the TSC Owners.

Again, sorry for the delay and thank you to everyone for participating.

Thanks,

Matt

Technically, I think @woodpusher won for the month of June even though his goal was to gain weight. Sam, I'll provide a gift of my own devising lol

Is there going to be a continuation of this challenge? I'd like to see if I can drop a few lbs.

I would like to see it come back in January for sure and I am personally committed to maintaining a stable weight and exercising more. I'm not sure if we have enough sponsor support for a year round weight loss "challenge." I suppose we could continue weighing in and talking about our progress in this thread or another if you'd like. What would you like to see? Are you interested in starting a mid year/fall weight loss challenge????

 

[Graybeard57]

I am goodly good.

I verify this as 100% true.

Congrats @b1hart !!

1st weigh-in for just over 3 weeks for me. I know I did lose a few pounds while in Nova Scotia (mainly because my empty plate was stolen from the table before I could go grab seconds ... but hey, when in Rome .... ). Gorged on burgers, pizza and poutine on the drive back and hey, whaddayaknow, I'm up 1/2 pound. That should go away once the poutine works it way through

 

[woodpusher]

Surprisingly, I am up this week, weighing in at 155.4 lbs. I thought I would have dropped a few pounds since we're back home and eating healthy food instead of take-out and/or diners.

Well got my blood results back, and while my weight has not gone down as much as I would like from last year at this time, I am happy to report that ALL of my numbers went down this year.

Last year:
A1c: 4.9
Total Cholesterol: 159
Triglycerides: 114
HDL: 64
Cholesterol HDL Ratio: 2.5
LDL: 75


This Year:
A1c: 4.8
Total Cholesterol: 148
Triglycerides: 58
HDL: 70
Cholesterol HDL Ratio: 2.1
LDL: 66


Okay well technically my HDL (good cholesterol) went up a little bit, but no concern as it is still well within the normal range. And the big drop in triglycerides is celebrated.

 

[Fenster]

Triglycerides are flushed out of the body with bourbon right?

Good job Chad.
