    Great post!

    Most impressive of all is the fact that the only one who disagreed did so in such a nice manner. :)

    (wish more threads went this way!)

    Great post! I have to work on 9 & 10!

    I am a psycho as defined in number 9 - I admit it!
    And Yes, I forgot how to enjoy myself - I think I'm OCD. I always think if I allow myself some enjoyment that I'll slide back to old habbits.

    Excellent post.. thank you.. Just wondering by the way what is 5X5 Stronglift??

    Hi!
    5x5 Stronglift is a strength training program that focuses on 5 compound lifts: squats, bench press, barbell (pendlay) row, overhead press, and deadlift. It teaches proper form and as you complete the program you will progressively increase weights. All free weights, no machines!

    Exactly what I was thinking and needed to see today - People get mad at me for still eating normal food... as long as I can fit it into my Macro's I'm going to eat it - pizza, wine, brownies, ALL IN MODERATION!

    You just need to find what works for you! If you know sugar is a trigger and would rather cut out processed sugar, that's your choice, don't knock me because I can still have it in moderation and be ok with it.

    I really don't agree with point 7 that's purely personal preference, your results will differ from someone else. What works/ worked for you wont necessarily work for someone else. This is your opinion your stating it as if it is a fact.

    The 1200 calorie thing does drive me nuts and it is EVERYONE'S go to number when they first start on here then the threads start with the questions ... drives me nuts.

    You are absolutely right. I do think it's important to know how much you weigh. This was more for the people who think weighing 3 lbs heavier at 9 pm than they did at 6 am is a huge problem. It isn't, and if you can handle it you should weigh yourself as often as you'd like. Thanks for pointing this one out.

    I meant point 6 lol ... my bad

    Those are great points.

    But the single greatest thing I've learned...is have patience.
