    What's up fellas. I started playing golf again after about 3 to 4 weeks....basically as soon as the soreness went away. I've got to warn you newly banded golfers, the weight loss definitely effects your swing. I've been playing for almost 20yrs, and i was having problems getting balanced. Then it seemed like I could definitely get my hips through a lot faster (w/o a big gut in the way) and contracted a bad case of the sh&*ks. I generally shoot in the low to mid 80s and actually shot a 120 something at the low point. I've sinced slowed my tempo down and am having a lot of fun playing golf without the extra weight. Still not back all the way, but I'm still losing weight too.

    dang... Having to watch Rosie if I lose the competition would make me want to vomit everyday... Probably effective for weightloss, but could cause problems with the band

    How often do you guys weigh yourself? I do it atleast every morning, sometimes a few times per day. I can't help it.

    Works for me Brew. I guess i'm shooting to drop another 15 to 20lbs by 5/31...which is cool, because after the man challenge, I'll be shooting to break 200. Nice timing for the competition.

    wasabubblebutt - haha. that is my favorite Bushism of all time! My 2nd favorite, which we heard at work on CNN one day (note that popular), "Today, Americans are finding more money in their wallets....which is good, particularly if you happen to own a wallet"

    6 1/2 and almost 4? why tell them at all? I personally would just let them be kids and not risk them worrying or struggling to understand what you're doing. This is a very adult decision you're making. just me.....

    that's a great story jesse. I have a 2yr old son now and started this band thing when he was born. I was up to 270 around the time he was born. I'm an active guy and wanted to have the stamina to teach him how to wake board, golf, ski/snowboard, and otherwise just be an energetic father. I also want to teach him the value of exercise and nutrition...something my parents never did. I'm down about 45lbs from when he was born and can tell a huge difference. I actually started lifting again this week..

    I like it Brew. Let's do it.. Maybe we can make the competition go through July 4th or something?

    We've got 4 of us now who want to do the weight loss challenge. Since we're all with in reach of 200 flat, maybe we should make that our goal. I know, I for one, will do frikkin cart wheels when I see 199 for the first time. Obviously, the prize of making the loser post a pic of himself in a pink tutu (sp?) on the before/after board wasn't very popular (I was only kidding btw anyway).
