  • Today was a good day... I have lost ~60 or so from my worst weight and I have lost many inches. So I went out and purchased a new suit.. from a 46R down to a 42R and from +40W into these.... 36W slacks. I guess I should update the thread title... Signed up a year ago, and have a 105Day streak... :)

  • I'm not stopping... Just having a moment to pout.. I'm going to try the 100Days of Real Food with my wife and see what that does for my numbers.. if that still does not have it under control, I guess I'll have to try the meds and see what other options I have at that time.

  • Sadly, My results A1C, LDL,HDL are all "better" than my last lab (2011), but all also still very Bad. I'm beyond frustrated at this time. I sent the Dr. a Portal message.... I guess I'll see how he responds. I thought I had come so far....

  • This morning... My wife showed me her iPhone. She has been taking pictures of me that I simply didn't know existed. So, with that.. I scroll and scroll...and I have to ask... Who is that guy in That picture? I'm confused, it seems just like yesterday back to 2011 ish.. and I was ~240 +- who knows how much. But I just about…

  • so the other morning, I was talked into an early morning run... (I despise running).. I said yes.. I also found that my Back Fat was not beating me to death like it had months ago when I tried running... Blistered up my feet, but thats another issue.. ;)

  • I'm just a guy, but.... at my worst I was 265+.. i'm sitting just over 200 now and if it were not for the clothes falling off, I would not "see" much change at all. I truly Envy you brave folks to get the shots in front of the mirror at your time of decision... cause its much easier to compare two photographs than that…

  • What I found very helpful is find a local group that has a beginner section. we call it group 3.. They will in most cases be very helpful and it will be a "no-drop" ride. They will push you, but it won't be over the top.. if you are riding to exercise as opposed to leisure, get a heart rate strap and a GPS bike computer to…

Then after picking up some 38's again I can slide them off without undoing them.. Now. my original jeans are able to fall off if I don't put a belt on... .. Love reading theses...

  • My wife and I started this program last month.... What I have come to understand is loosing is a very slow process. If you try and speed it up you will only starve one day and binge the next. Find some type of exercise you like.. Wife, she walks. I, like to ride bikes. it really does not take much to make a dent in the net…
