Thinking the same thing, especially since joining a gym at home seems pointless since I am gone half the time at work.

I am in too. Unfortunately it looks like the scale I have when I am up on my weeks at work and my scale I have at home are about 10-12 lbs different, but I should have started around 275 on the work scale and 265 on my home scale. I am on my weeks off and the home scale just read 252, so about 13 lbs in 4 weeks. My goal for this season is to be under 235 on the home scale, and to be maintaining under 220 by the next draw.

I was with Ant and to add to this...Last weekend he warned another person who was also with us this weekend for being camped off another road that wasn't posted closed and had told him that the area our camp was in this weekend was OPEN. He didn't even know what hunting unit he was in and changed some of the information he told us multiple times during our conversation with him, and didn't go into every camp and give them warnings. It did feel a bit like we were singled out, and I believe some of it had to do with the fact that all our vehicles made it obvious we were hunters. I only say this because he brought up the hunting aspect before we did.

Working on dropping weight myself this year, was out of work last year and bulked back up to over 270. Then when I first started my job in the oil fields in Alaska this winter it was tough to drop pounds because I had a hard time resisting the hight calorie foods and deserts after being out in the coldest winter on record with temps reaching -95*. But on my last hitch I chose the smart meals and stayed away from the cookie and pastry cabinet, plus started hitting the gym for 3-4 miles most nights and lost over 10 lbs over the 3 week hitch. Down to approximately 255 and hope to be down to the 230s by my November hunt, and hopefully maintaiing 220 or less by next years hunts. Wish everyone good luck on reaching thier goals.

Well I am the horse to pasture mentioned earlier, lol. Also in my defense she was hot and I called him in route to make sure I beat him to my house and we weren't late, but i was late for a fishing trip one of my last hitches home. Lol. But with Ant being my main hunting and fishing buddy my only real complaint is that dang long stride, especially on a guy I have 80-100lbs on. But of our "tag alongs" it's being late on multiple occasions. Whining that we didn't find them anything. Asking for the main groups "honey holes". People who never bring supplies.
