Wow!!!! Way to go and now the pressure is on! (For both of us!)
Very impressive Alan!
Well, I've reached goal number one. I'm overweight now. No longer obese. I made it down to 226 from a high of 262 (6'1" tall). I haven't been this low in over 18 years. My next goal is easier, 225 (nice round number). After that, 220, then 210, then 200, which is my ultimate goal. I'd still be overweight according to the gov't chart, but I don't buy into that so much anyway. If/when I get there I'll reassess. Mostly, I figure that eating properly from now on will get me to some level of consistant weight that is healthy for me. Be interesting to see what that is.

WOW! You are on a major roll!
You guys are such losers . SG, after the past few months, you're still right there (and you looked so cute in your Halloween costume on that other thread!). And Alan, why do you think you're dropping now that you're back in Texas and not going on the marathon hikes through those beautiful hills?
We have a family wedding that we leave for in three weeks so I am laughing that I picked up book last weekend, "The 17 Day Diet." Even though I started it with five days to spare, I think I can stick it out. Not bad, not much earthshaking news, pretty typical low carb, high protein, lots of veggies plan, but also low fat and lots of water. And entertainingly written compared to some of those out there. Down 3 lbs., so yay! I've also for the last month been working with a trainer once a week and have found that I DO have triceps--who knew....
Thanks guys - I think that while in England we knew it was only temporary and endulged ourselves quite a bit in the local food and ale. We had some great pubs in the town, and the local butchers was simply awesome, particularly for bacon, ham, sausages, meat pies and pasties. We also had a great Indian restaurant 10 minutes walk from the house.
From the first week in August onwards we had almost none stop visitors from the US, Scotland and England, so the eating and drinking was even more difficult to control.
I agree that SG is also doing great but I missed the photo of her in the Halloween costume - link please .
Check SG out here (and also in this thread are photos of the dreaded pirate Sarah in SC and Maid Juliet aka Freebird): http://www.early-retirement.org/forums/f27/best-halloween-costumes-for-2011-a-58421.html
Thanks for posting Kat, your results are very impressive indeed - well done. Are you still attending WW meetings to encourage others with your example?

3 weeks in range, so I couldn't be more pleased with how quickly I've returned to my weight in March before we went to the UK.

Thai food is supposed to be so healthy but I've lost 15 pounds since returning to the Land of the Round Door Knobs (USA.)
Meat and potatos baby- hold the rice please
