This morning my wife checked my measurements... The most startling was that I have lost ten inches from around my waist; my chest lost around 5 inches. (Frankly, it's somewhat embarrassing that I had so much fat to lose...  doh.gif

The 32 waist-size pants that I bought a couple of months ago and that were a bit too tight now have .5-1 inch to spare.

Me Thinks that I am done with this diet. Now that my back in on the mend I can get back to pumping some rubber!

I think that what's happened, Mayo, is that you hit "the wall" with your diet, and your metabolism has undergone a change, and revved up.  That happens to me at 140 lbs; I'll hang there for about 3 days, no matter what I do, and then, all of a sudden, it becomes an actual effort to maintain your weight.  I can eat almost anything without gaining weight, below 140 lbs., but if I get above that, it starts to add on, very easily.  Enjoy it, m'man, and again, congratulations!
