🚨 Weigh in 19 🚨
Before #FrankWalks, Frank had not been under 350 pounds in over 20 years and was 500+ pounds in 2016. Here is his monthly progress since we started walking (583 days in a row):
Before FrankWalks : 383 pounds
Weigh in 1: 373 pounds
Weigh in 2: 352 pounds
Weigh in 3: 343 pounds
Weigh in 4: 340 pounds
Weigh in 5: 339 pounds
Weigh in 6: 333.8 pounds
Weigh in 7: 331 pounds
Weigh in 8: 323.8 pounds
Weigh in 9: 319.8 pounds
Weigh in 10: 324 pounds
Weigh in 11: 330 pounds
Weigh in 12: 327.8 pounds
Weigh in 13: 318.5 pounds
Weigh in 14: 321.8 pounds
Weigh in 15: 326 pounds
Weigh in 16: 314 pounds
Weigh in 17: 316 pounds
Weigh in 18: 312.5 pounds
Here are the results from weigh in 19:
◦315 pounds. Frank has lost 68 pounds since we started walking.
◦Blood sugar: A1C is ~6% down from 10% (years of life expectancy 📈)
◦Diet: Diet remains the biggest challenge and THE blocker of the final breakthrough. After 45+ years of eating junk food, overhauling an entire diet sustainably takes a lot of patience and persistence
No excuses, this wasn’t our best month. We need to lock in on diet. Frank is disappointed but knows he screwed up on diet this month and is owning it. Mikey and I are working hard on a plan.
I do my best to remind Frank that if we zoom out, his progress is extraordinary and he continues to improve muscle growth, stamina, and overall athleticism everyday. And add YEARS to his life.
Most people who lose a lot of weight struggle to keep it off. This is his 3rd lowest weigh in of 19. This is a lifetime sustainability mission, not a diet with a specific weight target. Lots of game left.
The greatest reward of this crazy adventure is when we hear from Tank’s Army all kinds of stories of people who have decided to start walking or exercising because of Frank. This hasn’t been a story of easy win after easy win and the Frank Walks community has helped immensely, thank you.
We have had setbacks and extremely tough stretches, but Frank always responds.
That should be the key takeaway of this story: no matter how down you are, there is always an opportunity for redemption.
Frank has been hovering over 300 for a couple of months now, and we can feel the inevitable breakthrough coming. We just gotta keep pushin’ on that mudderf*cking diet.

@davidgoggins is going to do a 5 pull-up-for-pull-up, 30 second rest, challenge w/ me. David, I’d have to imagine this will be a long challenge. 10-20 hours. Whoever drops the boat first donates to a charity. Who knows, maybe this will last for days.
