You should focus on fat loss rather than weight loss. If you're building muscle using the strength training, your weight might not decrease. However body fat can because of the increased muscle mass, and increased amount of calories burned. But you don't see that on the weight scale. Track body fat once a week using a fat caliper. You might also want to check out one of my reader's training log, <a href="http://stronglifts.com/forum/discussion/108/1/tonys-training-log/">Tony</a>. He has similar stats to you, is doing StrongLifts 5x5 program since 2-3 months now and getting results. Might inspire you. -Mehdi. Thanks for the back link John.

Your weight loss is excellent. Are you finding that the blog is a motivator to keep you on track? I am also blogging about my weight loss (along with other goals) and I find that readers help to keep me in line. : ) By the way, those evil cookie/candy things look mighty tasty. I can see the temptation. Congrats! Your weight loss is excellent. Are you finding that the blog is a motivator to keep you on track?

In my previous life, I made them--and ate them--every Christmas. Yummeee, but despicable. Hope you have a great week!
