Love those pics. I'm not sure what everyone's plan is going forward but mine is to follow the Paleo Plan (relatively strictly). I had a lot of success with it in the past, actually lost about 50 pounds on it, but then when I met my wife, she cooked so good and I stopped doing what I was doing, most of it came back... story…

Sorry fyreside, i forgot you were ahead of me. That home gym looks awesome though. And rh0322 great job on the spin class. I took one of those one time and thought I was going to die.

Our weight loss challenge starts today. For anyone interested, post here or message us and we'll get you started. Looking forward to our success and anyone who wants to still join.

I bumped it yesterday, and if ya'll agree, I'm willing to let people join during the competition time, they just will start at the beginning and have to earn their way up. I'm posting the week 1 weigh in and discussion thread now. Love seeing this eagerness and aggressiveness.

Challenge starts tomorrow.

Great, me either. We still have space available, so if you are motivated and ready to take back your life, change your habits, and improve your discipline, we are looking for you.

Awesome. Welcome aboard.

I personally have a couple of why's. 1. For myself. I have always been the big guy. In high school, I thought it served me well as an offensive lineman (I still believe it did). In college, it became a hindrance and an embarrassment. I have never felt valued or respected (until I met my wife) and maybe sub-consciously it…

Within the Discipline Equals Freedom Weight Loss Challenge, everything is a challenge where we hold each other accountable. Daily, weekly, monthly, and eventually for the year, we will challenge each other, hold each other accountable, and fight to regain control of our lifestyles. Here is how the challenge works. 1.

Working on it. For right now, post that you are interested and I will send an invite to the first 30 that wish to join. As of now, we already have 5. Hope to see you soon.

I'm near Atl. In Gwinnett. Glad to hear from fellow Georgians.

You need to find your "why" or your reason for wanting to lose weight and get fit. Sit down and write it out on a piece of paper. What is that motivating reason for why you want to do this? For your self esteem? For your fiance? For your health? To have your perfect body? Really flesh out on paper what your "why" is. It…

I love podcasts. Always able to learn something, even on my drive or down time. Always keep learning. I'll give you a quote that I have written in my collection towards the top. "The secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new." - Socrates We can't change the past. Don't…

I like all kind's of music when I'm lifting and to get me in the mood for exercise. Five Finger Death Punch, 50 Cent, SlipKnot, Rob Zombie, Eminem... But my relax music is country. Love it all.

Here's to hoping that the hard times you are experiencing ease up soon. I believe a lot of people would agree with me that those are the worst times when trying to change your lifestyle to a healthier one because we are tempted more to fall back on bad habits that we have built over many years. I would suggest that you…

I had a bad day last weekend. Know that everyone stumbles but we're all on this journey together. Socrates once said "the secret of change is to focus all of your energy not on fighting the old, but on building the new." We can't change the past but today is open to create and shape it the way we want. Focus on your…
