    I can totally relate! I live in SA too and I can do good all week, stay within my calories and workout. But then comes the weekend and my sister calls "hey we bbq'd. come over!" It's so hard not to over do it because I want to eat everything especially all the tortillas! Anyway, I loved your story. You did great :D
    OMG HOW have you not added me!?!?! Ok, I imma add you up, us San Antonio crew members gotta stick together! I do have a free meal out of the week, for mental reason more than anything, can feel a bit "dieted out" after a while of sticking with the plan. Having that scheduled free meal has really helped in curving cravings throughout the week also, it is a good mental break and nice calorie shock to the system too to keep the body working! I can relate, dat texas BBQ is like.... made of magic and childrens laughter... and delicious sweet baby rays bbq sauce, lol.

    Wow man you did a great job like you I have struggled all my with being overweight due to being raise in a culture that celebrated everything with good food and lots of it . Turning 40 I found myself at 354lbs which prompted me to began the transformation process for the past week I have been eating healthy and exercising daily at day 7 I have lost 3.6 lbs thanks for posting you store it provided me with a boost in motivation

    That's awesome man, progress is progress! Take your time, enjoy seeing your body change, that is the funnest part. Be sure to take some pictures for yourself in some god awful HORRIBLE lighting month to month as you keep things going, you will be shocked, it is a great tool I use to keep myself motivated. Add me up brother, just cause I lost some weight does not mean my family stopped inviting me to a bbq every weekend, lol. I need my support group!

    Coming from El Paso, Texas I totally understand the food kryptonite! We love to eat and every weekend someone is having some kind of party. That being said, I now live in Colorado and still working on my food addiction. That was an awesome story- love your sense of humor and what a difference! Congratulations on your hard earned work. I'm getting into lifting and this inspires me to keep at it. It also helps that you have a cheat meal a week- the weekends are the hardest- how do you manage that? Also on your

    Sounds like you lost 120 lbs in fat and another 120 lbs in superficial relationships with the "loss" of the girlfriend! You deserve better -- and glad to see you realize that! Great job!
