Post on your own account, and open the diary. That could be the most valuable thing towards weight loss you could ever do on MFP...

I.... I like metal.

300+ games on my Steam account.... Currently creeping my way through "The Witcher 3". What a crazy amazing game that gets so much more deeper (and darker) post lvl 10.

25 spoonful of sugar in Starbucks coffee. Its a sensationalized header, and goes on to say only 8 in their "regular" coffee, but still an interesting read: http://money.cnn.com/2016/02/17/news/companies/sugar-coffee-drinks/index.html

The cool thing, is that we can buy canned MacDiz or Timmies coffee and make it at home. Once our Tassimo died (thank goodness - that was a money pit of caramel), we went back to ground. The wife prefers Tims, I prefer McDonalds, so we swap month to month with what ground we buy and it actually seems to prolong our…

We have a place called Tim Hortons up here and they do the cream/sugar in front of you as they make it. They use jiggers. A small coffee with cream sugar is one jig. A Medium is 2 jigs. A Large is 3. So if you ask for a "Double Double" (2x cream 2x sugar) it is multiplied by what they use per size. A Large coffee here has…

Something one-pot / slow cooker. Usually 5 Chicken breast, 2 tbls worcestershire sauce, 1 onion and either a jar of spaghetti sauce or a jar of bbq sauce. Slow cook for 4-8 hours night before, shred in the morning and let it rip. Goes with bread, tortillas, or lettuce wraps. BAM!

I like Body Fortress, sugar free Chocolate Peanut Butter, from (Edmonton) Wal-Mart. The Vanilla from the same brand is horrible - tastes like pancake batter. I have to add fruit to the vanilla. I wont buy it again. I drink mine as a meal replacement for breakfast, so I use milk to help "fatten" it out. I also drink one…

44, Male, 6' 1", 307 lbs. Started Dec 2015 at 321. I treadmill 5x a week (20 mins a day) and lift 5x a week. I quit soda a couple years ago and with that single change, dropped 25 lbs. I occasionally have Coke Zero and still drink beer once a month. My goal is 199 to 225. At 199 people think I am sick, and 225 if I…

Kale tastes like a hippies arm pit.

Generally need to add another fat since venison is so lean. Duck fat is popular. I do a 24 hour marinade in Beer, Worcestershire Sauce, and spices (pepper, salt etc). I dislike venison as it tends to be too gamy - tastes like soil to me with the exception of deer salami, but my kids LOVE it. I prefer Elk - and even then I…

First thing my wife said when we read this article. "My ancestors had ripped abs - because they starved 3/4 of the month, and ate Mastodon. You need the Mastodon Diet - buy this book to see how you too, can be cave man fit!" On the subject of Rice and Milk... isn't Rice and Milk completely different now then what it was,…

I had an avocado go bad on me recently - not rotten, but mushy. I usually just man up and eat it, I added it to some rice as I was stirring the rice into the boiling water then covered it for 5 minutes on low. WOW! Talk about a great combo. The Avocado basically emulsified, was no sign of it at all, but such a great flavor…

Always room for more outspoken, kick in the butt, motivated friends! No slacker-anchors here. BEWARE - WE BARK! I posted a weight loss this week.... ARE YOU READY? \m/

We call peanut butter "The Anchor" in this house. At first we paid more for the smaller jars. All that did was point out our (ie: my) obsession with it. Now we go without. Luckily our kids are not into it as much as my generation is/was. When they ask, we get the small jar, and I just have to deal with the calories I start…

Great tool for the tool box. Thanks for your time! \m/

Did you try to reach around the back and turn it off then on again? Sometimes you have to jiggle the dongle then make sure its a tight fit...

Stick to it. Slow and steady. You didnt wake up over weight, and you wont wake up lean - baby steps there. I'm 40+, have about 88 lbs to lose to be back to my game weight. Hit me up if you want another friend. \m/

I walk between 10-20 miles a day with a 40-60 lb equipment bag 6 days a week (10-15 hours a day) and never break a sweat. The 1-2 miles I run on the treadmill make me sweat. I never count my work routine mainly because of heart-rate differences.

Great job! Inspiring! Motivating! Way to take it to the forums, you deserve the attention!

ATCO, Telus, Fortis - utilities. We worked beside Devlin on those projects, as well as anyone else doing ground disturbance. \m/

Edmonton - worked on the Wye Road expansion last year, and did a lot of sidewalk utility in the Hawthorne/Cottonwood area ;) \m/

Kale tastes like dirt. I can't handle it.

This is after a shave.... had to shave the sides down for a wedding, but I convinced the sis-in-law to let me keep the 'goat. By next December it will be back to its full hillbilly glory. Everyone knows you lose 10 horse-power if you shave it all off...

MOAR FRIENDS! Older, louder, 40+ guy could always use more friends. \m/

I might have thought about this post and chuckled a bit as this came on my playlist while on treadmill.... Test. Your. Might. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPxGirFHYh0 Don't judge. You all shouted, "FINISH HIM!" \m/

First thing I thought of when I seen it was, "I wonder what my wife would say when she saw my size 12 boot print on the ceiling?" Second thing, "I wonder if the local fire dept has experience in cutting an adult out of one of these things?" The one in my sons closest we picked up at a garage sale! He used it off and on…
