150_lbs_by_2019 Member

36 here, just started this journey back in May. Had a few hiccups here and there, but I'm still going. Anyone can add me if they want.

Doubt I'd beat him with all those muscles, but I'd take him on and give it one hell of a try.

You can add me, I'm a great accountability buddy!

I weigh myself every morning to get my moving average, but I only officially weigh-in with MFP and my support group once a week, typically on Monday's.

Going to be brutally honest right now... First, it's none of my business if a woman wants to show her ta-ta's, and I'm all for gender equality, but all boobs are not created equal. Society has declared what is and isn't attractive, and I'm sorry to say that it's not saggy boobs. Let her show her nips, but if she's…

By zero calorie foods, the writer meant that the food burns more calories while you're digesting it than what the food contains. For example, (and these numbers are completely made up), if an Apple is 200 calories, and it burns 300 calories just to chew and digest it, then they would consider it a zero-calorie food. Foods…

Flirting is cheating of the heart and if you think it's harmless, you're wrong. I guarantee unless you are in an open relationship in which you and your wife are allowed to f@#k around on one another, there will be harm. Your wife will begin to lose all trust in you and always wonder if you're cheating around on her. She…

If your net calories go below 1200 when you exercise, then you are probably eating too little. When you exercise, you have to keep your net calories above 1200. I've been on MFP since May 1st. My starting calories were 1800 and now they're down to 1580. I have lost 50 lbs so far by maintaining a net of 1200 or more and…

$250 in makeup and hair accessories and $400 in new exercise equipment as a reward to myself for losing 50 lbs. Best money I will ever spend.

The average sexual encounter, including foreplay, is roughly 25 minutes. This is basic sex, nothing vigorous or kinky (you know, the fun stuff). Men burn 100 calories during the average 25-minute sex work out and women burn 69 calories. This number does not account for rough sex or anyone overweight. This is the number for…

Damn dude, you got hawt! Congrats. That's a huge accomplishment. 1. When you first started to lose weight, what kind of exercises did you do? 2. Did you have any loose skin that had to be removed, or did you tone it all up while losing? 3. If you did have loose skin, how much did it cost you to remove it? 4. How long has…

Sodium... Sodium sucks. I am so over all these foods having so much sodium. Is it really necessary for these companies to add so much salt to their foods? And to make matters worse, all that "healthy" processed food might have lower fat or calories, but they add a ton of sodium and sugar!!! I can do great hitting all my…

It's common to gain as much as five pounds during your period and while ovulating. You shouldn't weigh yourself during these times. In fact, it's not recommended to weigh yourself 72 hours before your period is expected because you can see such a significant increase in weight gain.

Maybe break down your meals and snacks and try to aim for a specific number of calories per meal. For example, I am doing 1760 calories a day, I don't drink calories, and I don't eat my exercise, so my diary would look like this: Breakfast - 8am: 350 calories Morning Snack - 10am: 150 cals Lunch - 12pm: 400 cals Afternoon…

What worked for me was finding one of those lipton teas you add to a bottle of water. Just find a flavor that you really like and it makes it a lot easier to kick the soda habit. (I enjoyed, like really, REALLY loved, lipton coconut passionfruit until they discontinued it.)

Ooh pick me, pick me. I eat processed foods all the time and even fast food sometimes. As long as I'm under my calorie goal and still losing weight, who cares.

Technically speaking, in the morning when you first wake you are slightly dehydrated and have lost water weight, so it's not completely accurate. Having a glass of water, before eating, would be a more accurate time to weigh yourself if you wanted to do so before eating.

Um, so I don't remember giving you permission to write my biography. :tongue:

I'm 35 and looking to lose 140 lbs by 2019. Anyone can feel free to add me for motivation and accountability buddy.
