Over 250 club challenge

I remember a few years ago. I was as near to 300 pounds as makes no difference. My son's best friend was over. My wife dug up a picture of me from the summer before our wedding (1997). I was shirtless and about 165 pounds with 15% body fat and looked pretty good (as good as I ever have).
Kid takes 1 look at the picture and says, "Damn Dean! Did you eat that guy?" Admittedly, freaking hilarious and one of many reasons I love that kid, but it stung a bit. I knew I had eaten that guy.
After 2 years of behavior change, today I am maintaining at 170 to 175 pounds. Every time I go for a run I have an image of that fat bastard chasing me trying to eat me again. Keeps me moving!
Keep up the great work guys. It is worth it!

Im at 236 and weight loss is almost at a stand still, even with continued diet changes. I keep saying im going to pick up gym time, but time is very hard to come by.
Google says a guy can burn 290 calories for every 80 minutes of sustained intense intercourse. Maybe change things up with the F off plan. 
Problem is, I hate the smell of burning rubber.Google says a guy can burn 290 calories for every 80 minutes of sustained intense intercourse. Maybe change things up with the F off plan.

Been hanging around 208 all week. My diet has pretty much been kicked to the curb. Wife has been making banana bread. She bought some of them flaming hot munchies (my salty mood weakness) and wanted some pizza.
But I have been doing 20 hour fasting everyday this week. Eat dinner around 5:30 and be done eating for the day by 9pm. Skip breakfast and lunch. Surprisingly easy to skip them couple meals.
I don't think that fasting like that is going to be sustainable for the long term, but it's helped me control my calorie intake. What I need to do is start doing cardio. If I did cardio and kept off the excess carbs and sugars, I'm sure I could break through this plateau.
How is everyone else doing? Anyone else switching things up?

Ya, this week I picked up on intermittent fasting. Im doing 14 hours, 3 days a week. Will see if that helps. I still havent increased workout time. Just cant seem to make time. I will get there though.
I’ll get a scale check in the morning but I can tell you I’ve had to tweak the IF in order not to crash doing CrossFit work..... I know it has to do with timing, but the only way for me to stay consistent is hit it on the way hone from work....
Im holding at 236 this week. Going to increase IF and tonight starts more cardio at the Gym. Had the heart doc appointments yesterday and got the all clear to push the HR past 100, but stay under 145. Hopefully this will start another run of pounds dropped.
I hope all you fellers are still pushing hard! about 1/2 way into the challenge and we have collectively lost a sh&t ton of lbs! Pretty awesome effort guys!
Ya the price is pretty nice considering what you get for it. Was actually the reason that i chose it over the others. And the reviews for it were great as well
