As Mario said, step by step. You got this James! Any and all inches down are good inches. As for my own update, I'm still doing well. I've stepped the workouts back slightly because I was sore all the time and risking injury. I ride the bike and do core stuff on rest days and don't do heavy lifting days every other day. I'll do about 2 heavy lifts per week and the other lifting day with more cardio style. I also now own an EIGHTEEN LB (eight kg!!!) all metal DLT-19. It's ridiculous and insanely heavy. I want to be strong enough to troop with it someday. It's a goal. I can carry it about 10 minutes before I wanna put it down.

So: Official weigh in to start the program was 302lbs Official goal weight is 220lb In the two weeks since weight in I'm down 7 lbs and 1" on my waist. The adjustment period hasn't be easy as my wife ended up having to have surgery and my work schedule got all screwed up, so I haven't be able to stick to the diet or the exercise schedule. But with all that behind us (fingers crossed), we hope to be settling into our routine. I've been averaging about 10k steps and "exercising" for at least 90 min a day (mostly just walking). The calorie intake is down to around 1200/day and the water intake is up to about 120oz a day. I'm hoping that once we get into routine the rest of this week, that I can get those numbers to move a bit more like I did the first time I did this program.

often happens when you have a new project. Hope your wife goes well and recovering. Step by Step brother.

Thank you! Should soon be done, only some sewing left, then it's painting and weathering

smooth and clean build, keep it up.

Welcome to the forums, if you do wish to reduce the ear gap (although ok as is) here are a couple of great threads

No hole promo image for ESB and are approvable

Please set you blaster for stun only when your lunch eventually arrives. That BLT (Bantha lettuce and tomato) isn't worth all the paperwork if you don't.

Here is me giving them a work out. Man, that grubhub order is getting late...where is that guy?

Hi Keegan, welcome to FISD. Glad to read you're on the way to become an Imperial Stormtrooper All of us were in your feet once and know the feeling. If you haven't done yet, take a look to others ESB builds HERE so you can see others work and decide the best way to build your armor , receive tips and advices. We are here to help you. Also this thread could be useful too. About the helmet, it looks ok. Those "issues" are common in the OTTKs Reference images

Ok, thank you, Glen. I will research these out.

Been awhile since I joined the forum. Saying hello and letting everyone know that here in the Interior of British Columbia we have now created (with approval) Ravinak Squad under the Outer Rim Garisson (BC). Just completing our first major event and have people interested in joining as a TK so thought it best to get on and update my information. Thank you.
