    Whenever I'm grinding I wear safety glasses and a face shield. This was just a precaution they take with anybody that works around metal. Finding out that you have a sliver of steel in your eye after you get in the giant magnet would not be a good thing.

    I'm glad you have good eye protection. For everyone else, please don't take chances.

    Glad to hear you're sticking with it. I'm down to 199 but a week long training session in Sao Paulo at a hotel didn't do me any good at all as far as weight is concerned! What an artificial lifestyle that is. Big spread for breakfast, sit for several hours in a strategic planning session, coffee break with pastry and temptation, more meeting, break for lunch, answer e-mail, more meetings, huge dinner.

    Crash, you're a brave man. One of the tricks is not to eat less, but to spread it out over the whole day in smaller portions. Eating less, as some people suggested, or worse skip a meal, is not good.

    It could also be a testosterone depletion I understand.

    It is just summer lifestyle, more and longer hikes.

    Great News! Downhill is a good place when you're dieting

    Crash you inspire me as well. Well, and having to work out in the shop the last couple of weeks doing the physical part of my job and just dripping sweat until it literally looks like I've been swimming. The other guys who are used to working out there don't let up on me either.

    Funny, I haven't gained weight though. Just redistributed mass to all the wrong places in the last two years because of my back. The back is fairly good now so no excuse anymore.

    I've got the refridge cleaned out and am following the same diet plan Ken listed, which I know works for me when there isn't ice cream and crap around. Want to get from a 38 waist back to a 34 again and re-build the upper body. I'm a little guy, 5'-4" at 184. Let's see where it goes.

    Keep going Crash. You can do it.

    Wait. You eat crap? I think that right there is your problem. I'd stick with just the ice cream. No more crap ala mode for you, mister.
