Day 3

June 12 Starting Weigh In: 283.6
Today's Weigh In: 282.0
Total Lost: 1.6 pounds, 9.4 to go

Yesterday was a pretty good day with a potential pothole right at the end. Ate pretty well all the way through the day, but then ended up going to dinner with the parents and wife. Ate Mexican, which isn't the best, but got the sauces on the side, made one of the healthier decisions (could have done better but could have done *MUCH* worse), and then I made sure to not finish the meal, only had one of my two enchiladas. Then, ended up at the bar last night and had two beers.

But, the weight went down a pound this morning, so you know I'm going to keep moving forward. Today so far, I've been to the gym and mowed the lawn and I'm sweating balls. I stepped on the scale a little while ago (with shorts/tshirt on), not quite sure why, and saw 281.4, which means I'm going in the right direction.

Have to be smart this weekend - Father's Day means 2 BBQs, tonight and tomorrow. I said in the past that "one good day" is just a day, "two good days" is a good start, and "three good days" is the beginning to a good streak.

Today's day 3.

Glad to see you on a roll Tuck. It really is party/BBQ season, isn't it. Seems even harder to avoid stuff now than over the holidays. Anyway, keep your head down and push through. Keep the booze under control and the eating too. You know how to do it.

I had zero liquor/beer tonight, stuck with water. Had salmon for dinner with broccoli salad, a few deviled eggs and some healthy choices. I did sneak in a small slice of pie, but I'm talking like 4 bites. I did well.

The cake was the four bites, I had a SLIVER of cake, and you took my pie after 2 bites.

Totally forgot about the brat. I had a brat too, minus one bite.

If we're being SUPER technical, I had a tiny ass piece of salmon (maybe 3 ounces.. if that). :P

Women ;)

Rob its day 5... let us know how its going. Sounds like your doing pretty well but if your forgetting food then your not paying enough attention. Plan your meals and portions brother then the weight will really drop... you already know this. Looks like your leading the charge with over 2lbs lost. Women, nice job keeping your man accountable :) had me rolling.
