This brought me from 280 to 260.
I then adjusted my diet (not really following NoS, but gave up soda and I never really snack. I will have an occasional cookie or sweet, but do follow the only eat 3 meals a day) and picked up running.
This brought me to 260 to 240 and I still shovelgloved.
About a month or two ago, I upgraded to 12 lbs, which the hammer was too heavy for me. I need to buy gloves as it is causing blisters on my hands. Due to the hand pain, and frustration, I put shovelglove down and continued to run.
I also continued to stay around 240 lbs. I increased my running (training to run a marathon, back in march, I couldn't even run a mile...or a 1/2 a mile...or a 1/4 of a mile) but stayed around 240 lbs.
I figured I needed to change something, as quadrupling my running has not really yielded much results, and picked up shovelgloving again. With the 12 lber. I still need f'ing gloves. Any suggestions?

In the week, I am now dropped to 236, down 4 lbs in 1 week. The combination of the cardio and weights seemed to have helped greatly with the weight loss. The break also helped me handle the 12 lb'er better as well.
