Good to see you guys keepin' up with it.

I think I may try to hit the weights again tonight. Neck/upper back has felt good for over a week now...so I'll test it lightly.

Dude, good to see you posting in this thread again (although, I'm about a week and a half late, haha).

Work's been kicking my butt lately, so much so that this month I've spent more time at work than I do anywhere else.

I'm planning on joining my buddy's gym to try and keep motivated (and hopefully, accountable to him).

Welcome back! I've hit a wall with my weight loss this past week. Granted, I've been at work more than at home and haven't been home to sleep much but every morning I've weighed myself when I wake up and since last Friday the results have been as follows: Friday: 240.8 Saturday: 239.1 Sunday: 241.3 Monday: 241.4 Tuesday: 241.2 Yesterday: 241.5 Today: 241.3 I'm at a loss to explain this since last week I lowered my calorie intake goal to a base of 1,575 a day and, except for Friday which was an all nighter at work which led me to eat Quest bars every three hours, I haven't gone much over the goal: The only day I worked out during this time period was Sunday where I burned 500 calories on the treadmill and did a push day workout. I'm hoping as much life schedule will be normalized starting Monday to see more loss but this wall made me wonder if my scale was broken. Thoughts?

Welcome back!

I've hit a wall with my weight loss this past week.

Granted, I've been at work more than at home and haven't been home to sleep much but every morning I've weighed myself when I wake up and since last Friday the results have been as follows:

Friday: 240.8

Saturday: 239.1

Sunday: 241.3

Monday: 241.4

Tuesday: 241.2

Yesterday: 241.5

Today: 241.3

I'm at a loss to explain this since last week I lowered my calorie intake goal to a base of 1,575 a day and, except for Friday which was an all nighter at work which led me to eat Quest bars every three hours, I haven't gone much over the goal:

The only day I worked out during this time period was Sunday where I burned 500 calories on the treadmill and did a push day workout.

I'm hoping as much life schedule will be normalized starting Monday to see more loss but this wall made me wonder if my scale was broken.

Thoughts?

Weight loss can happen in bursts. Based on water...etc.,

I'll go 3 weeks without dropping a pound, and then all of a sudden I'm down 5. It's just the nature of the beast, keep at it.

Yah, I will. I joined a gym this week. It was just a little disheartening after seeing a nice amount of weight loss week after week to not see the needle move. I blame my work schedule...or the scale is broken, haha.

Yeah, that's happening with me too.  I'll drop 2 pounds two consecutive days and then nothing, or even gain a pound for the next week.  I'm not too worried about it, I just know that if I keep eating good and exercising, I'll keep progressing.

I have found that I drop regularly then will be up a pound or two but even when the scale shows increase, the measurements show I am continuing down.

I hope to hit my 40# down make this coming Friday.

Diet and exercise are the keys for me.

    • Yeah, that's right. I remember now. Pia Nilsson. I've read a couple of her books. "Be A Player" and "Every Shot Must Have A Purpose".  I read them back maybe 10 years ago. ... maybe 5? ... pre-pandemic anyway.  Good memory. 
    • Having had the opportunity to live and work in a few different countries, I've encountered some golf traditions, whether they are well-established customs or unique experiences at local courses. While not all of these are widely practiced, they highlight the diversity and creativity in the golfing world. 1. Japan - The O-Bon Golf Festival In Japan, during the O-Bon (lantern) Festival, I've seen golf courses hosting night golf events with glowing balls and lantern-lit fairways. It's a serene and beautiful way to combine golf with culture.  2. Scotland - The Guising Golfers In Scotland, around Halloween, I've come across golfers participating in "guising," where they dress up in costumes and play a round of golf. It adds a festive twist and a lot of fun to the game. 3. South Korea - The New Year's Honbae In South Korea, golfers play a round of golf on New Year's Day, followed by a celebratory meal and drinks (9th hole and after the game). It's a time for camaraderie and positive intentions for the year ahead. Besides new year's, on higher end courses, they often break on the 9th hole for some light food and drinks like fancy ramen and makgeolli rice wine (ordered in advance). 4. Australia - The Outback Golf Challenge (I have not experienced this one myself) In Australia, there is apparently an Outback Golf Challenge, where golfers navigate rough terrain and face unconventional obstacles. It's considered a true test of skill and adaptability (but hasn't produced many PGA golfers 😉 ). 5. Finland - The Midnight Sun Golf Tournament (I have not experienced this one myself) In Finland, the Midnight Sun Golf Tournament is where golfers play late into the evening under the perpetual twilight of the summer months. The endless daylight makes it a truly unique event. While these traditions may not be universally established, they represent the variety of golfing experiences around the world. I'm curious if any of you have encountered or participated in unique or local golf traditions, whether internationally or closer to home.
    • It's from "Every Shot Has a Purpose" which was co-written by one of Annika's coaches. Decent read about reducing uncertainty and committing to the golf shot.
    • Ah, I didn't realize this was about standing over the ball versus time to play the shot. Definitely two different things there. Yea I would imagine being static over the ball/taking a long time over the ball does make things worse in the long run, hence all the waggles guys will do before pulling the trigger.
    • I'm not sure who said it first but I've seen it a lot. There's this "think box" vs "play box" theory. I've also seen it with a planning vs doing line on the ground. The idea is basically you stand away from the ball (a couple feet) and do your "think box". This is where you do your planning, your swing cues, your practice swings (if you believe in practice swings.) All of that is done in the "Think Box". Then you step into your "play box" address the ball and hit it. Sometimes it's done with a imaginary line on the ground. You do all of the think box stuff behind the line. Then once you cross the line you step up and hit it.  Here's Annika Sorenstam demonstrating the "Think box" and "Play box": So, Annika's time over the ball is really short. Because she did all of that other stuff not over the ball, but in her "Think box".  There are lots of variations on this theme. But I think you get the idea.
