Title: update on my weight loss
Post by: ¿ Jesse Pawman ? on August 07, 2008, 12:05:11 AM
Ok so many of you know about how I'm trying to lose weight with my mother since she found out she had diabetes earlier this year.

Well, today I have good news.

I just bought a brand new belt, waist size 40. I was at 46.

I was 240 or so lbs. and am now down to 215. I'm so proud of myself. I feel ten times better, and I'm sure I look better (except the saggy clothes). My personal goal is 190.



My mother has looked a lot better too. She's probably down into 190s or something. We're ganna keep working at it.

Heh, congratulations on your progress it is good to hear that you and your mother are working on it.  I myself like my current size because it scares others into leaving me alone.

Contratz Jesse!

I mean, I dont need to excersize becuase I do so much drumming, although my legs arent that strong,
my arms are lots stronger! So Im lucky, I lose weight whilst doing somthing I LOVE.
After all, Drummers have been scientifically proven  be as fit as athlites Hehehe
Hey Jesse, try rocking out on your Jazzmaster till you sweat hard.
Could work pretty well!  :peace:

Rock out as in go mad. Swish around but be careful, play hard and fast but concentrate a lot. Easier for drums, BASH BASH BASH! XD
Play really hard but just carefully

Great Job Jesse! +^_^+

You'll lose more weight in no time.

Last year I weighed 210 lbs but then I lost weight through the duration of the summer from exercising and working out.

Now I'm 140 lbs :3

My legs are the same way. I can't even put both hands around my calves without squeezing the leg.

Gaining is hard for me, I never lost or gained a pound over 5 years and it was very unhealthy the way I grew -.-

Eat more calories and lift weights.

believe me, i know what its like xD high-metabolism can be one's worst enemy sometimes, and if there's no possibility for work-out, its hard to gain weight

Heh..yea high metabolism i'll eat anything and won't gain a pound....heck. when my stomach is relaxed i can see the bottom of my rib cage showing o.o and when I suck in..I can see the ridges of my rib cage o.o...it's the reason why my boss gave me my nickname "squirrelly" because i can fit anywhere o.o
