I’m new the FreeTrainers.com. “Hello everyone!!” My brothers and I have entered a friendly contest with each other to lose 18% of our body weight this year and keep it off through Christmas of 2007 and beyond. That’s about 50 lbs each. Not impossible when the lightest one of us is 245... lol. (Not really a laughing matter.) Anyway, I’ve chosen FreeTrainers.com to help me attain this goal and beat my brothers. Hopefully not by much and we all meet the goal, but I’ve got to WIN by maintaining this new lower weight longer all the while gaining more muscle definition and mass. The plan is to upload pics as I progress. I would really like feedback and support from this community to help push me and hold me accountable for attaining this goal. Thank you, and Happy New Year!!!!!

Nice way to start off the year. Good luck reaching your goals and winning! The only way to stay on top is by reaching for the stars while training. Happy new year!:big_smile:

A little discipline at the table and at the gym might help reduce that belly!

I feel great, just seen that I gained and inch in the chest and lost an inch at the belly button and waist. Woohoo. Weight is down 3 lbs. Not much to brag about.
Anyway, Talking with my brothers I realized that our combined weight is like 798 lbs and when we have lost our weight we will have basiclly sweated away a 150 lbs person... WOW.:laugh:
