It will definitely happen for you, you just have to keep at it. I've failed at dieting for almost a decade and a half before this attempt, and honestly the biggest change has just been my mindset and attitude. Educating myself and staying positive and focused has made a world of difference. Sometimes I lose slower than I'd…

Absolutely. I recently bought a shirt at Kohl's for $12 (actually 16, but it was on sale). The same shirt (but in a 2XL to 6XL) was sold at a Plus Sized Store for $40. I think what happens is they consider themselves "specialty" stores due to their "unique" items and clientele. So they charge extra for a "unique service".…

100%. I've lost 120 pounds. After failing to diet for almost 15 years. Yet a decent chunk of my family will ask what I did, then dismiss it like I dont know what I'm talking about, since it's not a fast or super easy solution. And these happen to be family members that are in the worst shape of their lives.

Bones....bones everywhere. Some are cool and some will freak you out during weight loss LOL. Beware of night time hunger. I never had temptations to overeat during the day - but at night ... all the time. I ended up eating less earlier in the day so I could fill myself up more in the evening to better avoid night time…

Agreed with so much of this. Lost 100 pounds so far. Mental aspect is huge. Stop thinking negatively. Stop looking for a way out or a way to "skip" your diet or workout today. Absolutely go at your own pace, but in the past, I found reasons NOT to do things. Now, I find reasons to do them - and it makes a world of…

I can't tell you how much I relate to all this. As a man who literally never cared about clothes his entire life - this has begun to become an obsession of mine. Growing up I literally just wore jeans, shorts, and a t-shirt that told you what my favorite band, sports team, or TV show was. That was my teenage fashion. Then…

Coca-cola. Before this. I would have told you I was addicted to coke. And I was right. We are talking 1 to 4 litres of coke a day. Everyday. Thanks in part to the pandemic, I started dieting. And when I did. I just stopped drinking coke. It definitely helps that I was eating at home and not going into stores. Just ordering…

100% this. I'm hoping to lose 180 pounds. I've lost about 100 so far and am not suprised or upset when people don't notice. I was a very fat guy before and now im still a somewhat less fat guy. Some have noticed tho, but mostly I get told they can see it in my face LMAO.

Do I think you can be addicted to food? Absolutely. Just like gluten allergies are a real thing and so is ADHD and depression. However I feel all have become overused. Everyone is gluten sensitive now. Everyone suffers from depression now. And all kids have adhd. We overuse these things to explain away issues. I believe…

100% this. I always used to go in and buy crap while pumping gas. Now I start the pump and jump back in my car to avoid temptation lol

I don't think that's odd. I have lost 60 lbs (still have 100 to go) and not many have commented. Some days I don't think I look any skinnier, but other days I definitely notice.

My FitBit has my best burn as 6247.

Done with Week 4 and done with this Challenge! Probably the only one who was still doing it too lmao.
-
Checking In. Done with week 4, Days 1 through 3. Not sure if anyone else is still doing this besides me and @Dictorbutt lol Tatho if you are gonna try that good luck. It gets really tough doubling and tripling up.

Basically any type of meet or dairy. Personally I usually stick with eggs, milk, and sometimes bacon
-
Yup. I'm in 10 challenges right now. Most are just weight loss ones. I have about 5 that are activity based. 3-6 in one day? 4 days? That's Impressive!! Nice job!
-
I pushed ahead. Today should be the rest day for week 3. Tomorrow is day 1 week 4. Which is what I did today. So I'm one day ahead now.

chicken, eggs, protein bars, greek yogurt. those are some protein staples.
-
I would do protein bars. I have 6 meals a day. 3 - 4 of those are protein bars. At 160 calories and 20g of protein, its an easy and low cal way to pick up protein.

+1 Got mine to see how much unplanned/not-counted cardio I do and I now move more than ever. I get competitive and love the challenges. It was a great investment for me. Do you have one and is it in your drawer?
-
What I do (And I'm sure some TDEE/IIFYM nut will show up saying I'm wrong for this) is 0.9g Protein for each lb lean body mass, 0.3g Fat for each lb of lean body mass, and the remainder in carbs. Some things I have read state that you can do 1g P per lb and 0.45g Fat per pound. So if your looking to lower carbs, maybe…

You can't scare me! Done, Week 3, Day 3, 4, and 5. All in the same day. Along with my GoT punishment challenge, a 60 minutes strength routine, and 6 miles of Cardio. lol. This was yesterday. Thankfully my legs can rest until tonight when I get off work :P Gonna finish up Week 3 today.
