Good for you!! Get yourself a weighted vest. That will get you where you need to be fast.

Nice work. I’ll jump in and get to work slimming down also. It really does make the snowmobile season more enjoyable when you’ve got good fitness. Every 7lbs we drop will be like adding one. horsepower. Hoping to add 6 horsepower next year

It's like I tell my Doc, I can drop 30 lbs fairly easily. Then I ask "Statistically, what will follow that weight loss? Gain 40 lbs back? " and he says...."Probably", so I will stick to keeping my core strong and let the gut just come along for the ride.

OK
Then try this.
Lose the 30lbs this Summer and Fall.
Ride next season 30lbs DOWN
Then put the weight back on in the spring after the season is over.

Well instead of losing 30 maybe I should shoot for 10. I might stand a better chance of maintaining that?

well ya, if you WANT to maintain it.
If you want to just gain it back, then its all about TIMING
And time wise we want you to be in your BEST PHYSICAL CONDITION for WINTER!

Didn't you get ripped a few years back? I'm sure you didn't want to lose any of that progress, and I'm guessing you're a better man than I. It has nothing to do with want. Aging and will power are not natural bedfellows! LOL

I don't know if my story is unique or strange or common.
But I put the weight on SNOWMOBILING.

For me it was the Apres-Sledding that did me in.
I would be SO FREAKING HUNGRY at the end of the day on the mountain and go out for dinner with the group 2-3 times a week that I started putting on weight.
AND
For the first time in years I would be eating a FULL HEARTY BREAKFAST before every ride!.

Drink more water before, during, after.
I can eat anything I want on extended stay rides and go home lighter.

Sledding just makes me RAVENOUSLY HUNGRY!

I think that’s a common result for everyone that rides any length of time due to the calories burned.
Best part of the day is eating with the group after.

I lose weight during the sledding period (so winter), even though I don't sled all that hard or long. My 'eating habits' are different when I'm up in the house in Sweden. I think better than when I'm back home.
Also I can hardly eat lunch when I'm out sledding. I usually eat like 4 sandwiches at lunch, but when I'm out I can barely finish one. Don't know why that is, maybe the adrenaline of riding or something. I do drink a lot. Mostly some sort of lemonade and water.
In the evening I am somewhat more hungry than on non-sledding days, but I don't eat much more.

For sure! I burn more calories riding than any other activity, and always come home heavier. We enjoy the evening meal, more than we aught to!
