  • July 10th: 237.2 July 17th: July 24th: July 31st: Weight -/+ this week: -2.8 Weight -/+ this month: -3.0 Successes / struggles this week: Had a good week, but still not back to where I was on the 1st. One 3-day weekend can wreck you... Problem is, I've got another bad diet day coming up on Saturday.

  • The easiest way I know of is to click on the bell icon (notifications), then click "all notifications" at the bottom of that pop-up, now after it takes you to that page click on "Replies". Now you can see all the posts you've made. Unless you post a lot, you should find it pretty quickly!
  • That is exactly the kind of wake-up call I had. Unfortunately, I needed it twice. The first time I broke 300 I got serious for a bit and dropped weight back down to my "normal" 270-275 range and swore "never again". Then in February of this year, I got above 290 again, and I thought about that promise I made to myself. Now…
  • Forgot to log here on Monday... Better late than never. July 3th: 240 July 10th: July 17th: July 24th: July 31st: Weight -/+ this week: -0.2 Weight -/+ this month: -0.2 Successes / struggles this week: I had gotten a good head start on my monthly goal, but too much celebration on the 2nd erased most of that. Still, at…
  • Welcome to all the new people! So many! Glad to see such a good turnout before July even begins. :) To answer some of the questions I've seen: 1) Yes, you can participate! Why on earth would anybody want to stop you? 2) No moderation. I took the weigh-in template from somebody else a few months back, and chose Monday for…

  • Haven't even thought about this song in 15 years or so, but for no apparent reason the chorus popped into my head 2 days ago and just won't leave. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrLequ6dUdM
  • That is rough. I know there are days when I have no energy after just an 8 hour shift (plus 2 hours of commuting). All I can offer is to find a workout buddy who can help motivate you (and vice versa) to get out there, and exercising builds energy in the medium-to-long run. The more you do, the less effort it will take to…
  • June 26th:240.2 Weight -/+ this week: -5.4 Weight -/+ this month: -9.8 Successes / struggles this week: I smoked that scale this week! \o/ Still fell short of the goal by 0.2 pounds, but it feels like a huge win.
  • What (notreally) Chris said. You can't choose where to lose from. Whether or not you have curves will depend mostly on genetics. You can work specific muscles (like squats for glutes) to try to influence your appearance, but it's going to be muscles, not "curves" per se. Just focus on losing the weight to get that flat…

  • Oh that smile definitely looks naughty.
  • I started out great, and had *months* of strong success (starting out massively obese "helps"). I typically weigh myself every day, and I got used to seeing a strong correlation between hitting my calorie goal and losing weight. Occasionally there was a hiccup, but mostly if I hit the goal I lost and if I didn't I gained.…
  • Saw a shirt at the gym tonight that said "Can't stop the rock", so of course Stop The Rock popped into my head. Anybody got a link to the real video though? I know I've seen it online before, but cannot find it now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pURJDToKA0k
  • Wouldn't you rather get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop?
  • Spiderman Homecoming. Civil War Pt 2. Infinity Wars.
  • Depends on what you mean by motivational... I'm no cheerleader, but I'm crushing goals and will gladly share my journey with anybody and toss out likes and the occasional comment.
  • I can't imagine starches being the solution. I view them more as a problem. The real solution, I think, is balance and calorie counting. Make sure you are getting a proper ratio of protein, carbs, and fat (I personally err on the side of protein), and controlling your portions. Low carb dieting worked for me, but wasn't…
  • No, but I think I'd like to. HYE done any sword fighting?
  • Keep it up and keep it off!
  • I've lost 50 (but backslid a bit this weekend), and looking forward to losing another 20-45. You can do this!

  • June 19th: 245.6 June 26th: Weight -/+ this week: -1.0 Weight -/+ this month: -4.4 Successes / struggles this week: Harumph. I should be happy about the 1 pound loss, I guess, but I was down to 242 before my party weekend. Oh well. It was worth every single calorie. I knew going into the warmer months that these weekends…
  • There's nothing to be done (tactfully) about people trying to control you. Ignore, avoid, or bull your way through it. If she doesn't like you weighing her meal that she cooked, ask if she'd be less offended if you simply didn't eat it at all, because you don't eat what you don't weigh. Make it her choice, but your options.
  • June 13th: 246.6 June 19th: June 26th: Weight -/+ this week: +1.4 Weight -/+ this month: -3.4 Successes / struggles this week: Another business trip, more bad food choices. This coming weekend will be a struggle too. Hoping to keep it below 250 still.
  • I would say it depends on how obese you are, but I've skated at a weight of 290. My back got sore, but as long as you listen to your body and don't overdo it you should be good to go. I was actively playing hockey while obese to the tune of ~250-270 pounds.
  • True, but also the youngest. TNP still lives within 50 miles of where they were born.
