Month 9 Weigh In: -124 lbs. Countdown to Dollywood Rollercoasters has officially begun!

02/10/2026

Month 7 has been focused on Extended Fasting, something I started month 6 after falling in the shower and hurting my arm. I have to take 6 weeks off of lifting, which was a blessing in disguise, because adding the extended fasting into my diet has been the final piece of the puzzle. Dual fuel now running how it is supposed to. Gut healed. I can't wait to be riding rollercoasters with Jonesy in July, jogging a mile with him August 1st, and working on the 300 lb Bench challenge for July 1st until then!

I'm going to secretly join Jonesy on his 1 mile challenge. At 350lbs, this won't be easy, but he is worth it. I want to jog 1 mile, non-stop with him on August 1st.

Jonesy is working hard on that 1 mile challenge. His brother is going to enlist in either the Air Force or Navy this summer and is going to be in charge of his 1 mile training. I'll be training for the mile without Jonesy knowing so that I can jog it with him in August. Currently at 350lbs, my body hurts to jog, but as I continue to lose weight, it should get easier.

I’m a 45-year-old dad on a mission to lose 150 lbs and bench press 300 lbs by July 1st. This journey started at 445 lbs because my 10-year-old son challenged me to finally ride a rollercoaster with him. To get there, I’m prioritizing gut health through fibermaxxing, a high-fiber keto diet, and clean eating with no seed oils or soy. I leverage my experience with plant-based nutrition and intermittent fasting to stay disciplined and hit my 30 plants a week challenge. Managing ADHD while staying consistent in the gym is a daily grind, but hitting my protein goals keeps me fueled. Whether you’re looking for weight loss motivation, low carb recipes, or strength training for men over 40, follow the JonesyVerse to see us make it to that coaster this summer.

Month 3 Weigh-In. 40lbs down after first two months. This isn't just another weigh-in; it's the culmination of our toughest dietary challenge yet—a full month of Plant-Based/Vegetarian eating.

This phase was a critical test of intentionality and discipline, and the results are finally here. But the weight loss numbers are only half the story.

(The Real Reason: Kade's Blueprint)

I’ve lived two lives: one obese, one healthy. I know the profound difference in how people treat you. I realized that my son, Kade, inherited my struggles with weight, and I couldn't just tell him to be healthy; I had to give him the blueprint and lead the way.

This entire transformation—the fasting, the meal prepping, the spiritual discipline—is my act of love, ensuring he has the formula to conquer his genetics before middle school starts. We are showing him that health is won not by luck, but by intentional action and discipline.

Watch to see the final weight for the month, how the Plant-Based cycle impacted my energy, and hear the hard truth about why this 12-month journey is truly about securing my son's future health.

My son, Jonesy, issued the ultimate culinary challenge after discovering my weakness for PB&J sandwiches on our Plant-Based month! He and MaeMae staged an intervention, taking me to Austin favorites like the Bouldin Cafe and The Nom to show me how delicious plant based eating can be.

The Gauntlet: I have 30 minutes to cook three dishes:

MaeMae (Keto/High Protein): Needs low-carb elements and satisfying healthy fats.

Big Pop Pop (Plant-Based): Needs a meat-free, high-fiber, clean-carb component.

The Boys (Hidden Veggie): Requires clean ingredients and disguised vegetables.

Special ingredients: Kiwi, Sweet Potatoes and Heart of Palms Palmini Rice.

Watch to see if I pull off this 3-in-1 miracle in under 30 minutes!
