  • Most goals are realistic if you try hard enough. I've heard 2 lbs lost a week is safe so you could probably make it with some real dedication. I can drop a legit 5 in a week but only do it when I'm feeling down. All the hard work burns a lot of trouble away. I will gas myself out including water weight and weigh in. Then…

    in How often do you weigh yourself ? Comment by vonmarks September 2017
  • Some say to never look at the scale and some say to watch it every day. It does seem to be 50/50. I look at it several times throughout a day. It's an obsession. I like to see how much I change after and before workouts, meals or even after big glasses of water. But, I only log it once a day and that is when I get up in…

  • I haven't figured out the point to all my change either. I had a decent life for a while and then fell into a bad rut partly because of my "shyness". I'm not sure what types of people you run into but it sounds like you have more opportunities than you think. I couldn't go to a gym because of the way I perceived people…
    in What's the point? Comment by vonmarks August 2017
  • I was at 196lbs(M, 5'8) and picked 172 because that's the last weight I remembered being at and feeling comfortable. I got to 172 and within a week I was already at 168 so I made the new goal 155. Once I got to 155 I leveled off around 160 for awhile. Made a new goal of 145 but each time I get to 155 it seems my body wants…
    in how did you decide on your goal weight? Comment by vonmarks August 2017
  • I appreciate the thoughts and concerns of those who replied to my post. Coincidentally the thing that started my depression was a therapist. I had gone to her for a work related issue stemming from out performing everyone but not being compensated the same, and pound for pound far less, which eventually led to me starting…
    in What was your point of disgust? Comment by vonmarks August 2017
  • I had revamped my entire life. I had quit drinking and smoking for over two years, bought a house, started my own company, was taking fish oil and vitamin d supplements, changed my diet(no more fast food or chain restaurants) and cut off my long hair. Most of this was to attract a woman(any woman, no one specific) but also…
    in What was your point of disgust? Comment by vonmarks August 2017
  • Absolutely possible. I went from 195lbs(88kg) to 153(69) in 9 months. According to the online bmi that put me at just out of overweight into normal at 164(74). 39yrs old, 5'8"(172cm), male. During that time I ate a ton of food so you should get better results if you follow a good calorie count. The best thing I ever…
