I weighed 257.2 before the workout, 253.4 after, and 253.0 after the pool!

I'm hoping to be 240 by October 3rd. That's the date of the Downingtown Fall Fest, and I hope to attend that event with room in mah belly.

It would be a good GTG for the locals.

240.0 today. 4 days early... goal set.... goal achieved. think I'll have a beer.

also... I bounced on the trampoline today for my daughter. It has a 250 lb weight limit, and I told her that one day I would be light enough to use it.... and today... i did a flip on it. I landed on my ass, but i flipped. She was proud of me. We had a good day. mini golf, dinner with my mom, cheerleading practice, and the boy taught me how to ripstick. kids are cool.

I will have a cast placed on my right forearm to immobilize my wrist in a neutral position. This should allow the small tear in my TFCC to heal without surgery. My ortho doctor said he had a torn TFCC something like 10 years ago, never had surgery, but his full range of motion has never returned in that wrist, and he can't do things like normal pushups anymore. I guess I could try the "perfect pushups" since that device places the wrist in a neutral position.

entirely depends on how naturally buoyant you are and how hard you want to work out

Swam 100 lengths Mon (just over a mile), ran a couple of miles in 20 minutes yesterday. Just mowed the lawn -if I go fast that's a real workout, but I had to go slowly because it was so long, so I guess it's back to the pool this afternoon for today's workout

You should look at his pix; he looks great! That's lots of determination for ya. I've only lost 5lbs, and I'm so sick and tired of diet and exercise already.
