I'm up to about 225 pounds.

I'm about 45 pounds away from a cheat day.

Well, I'm usually naked under my shirt and boxers. Does that count?

I used to do it everyday, but not now. Why? I don't need a scale to tell me I'm fat. My clothes do a much better job of it. Now I try on particular pair of pants. Think of them as my "goal" pants. When I can fit into them, then I'll know I'm where I need to be.

50 pounds is a lot of weight. Great job!!

I'll be in a better position to answer that question just before I die.

I'm still working on a start. I haven't hit a stall yet. My metabolism is giving me the middle finger. I'm trying a 2K calorie a day deficit to see how my body responds.

Yeah, my metabolism is crap. For this week I'm trying something new. I'm shooting for a 2K calorie daily deficit. I'm trying to force my body to start using fat for energy. I tried a 1K calorie daily deficit but my body basically laughed back at me and told me to piss off, "I'm keeping this fat no matter what". I've been…

You know chocolate chip cookies would make me feel better than chicken soup.

I'd be the worst on a desert island with a group of people: "Let's talk about our favorite snacks and desserts".

I'm actually not hungry. I'm just eating to make sure I have something during the day. Even when I have cravings for junk food, I'm not hungry. I just want something sweet to taste. Feels like trying to kick a drug habit.

Count me in. Having some sort of accountability is important.

After I spray myself with cookie dough cologne. Seriously, first thing in the morning.

56 year old male. 6'0 tall. Time to shed a lot of weight. Starting weight: 224.8 pounds. Goal weight: 180 pounds. Biggest hurdle: STOP eating so much damn food. Even when I'm not hungry I just eat and eat and eat. Day/Weight/Comment 3/21 Weight: 224.8lbs WTH!? Super depressing, but whatever. I'm fat. The veggie chips are…

It is taking supernatural powers to not jump in my car, go to the store, and pick up a whole bunch of cookies.

Accountability is huge. At least it is for me. I know that if I get on-line each day and post an update, I want it to be about weight loss rather than weight gain.

On day one. It's about this time of the day I jump in my car and go to the store to pick up around 3K calories of cookies. Brutal.

Stressed and when I want to feel better. It's a vicious cycle because getting fatter can create stress and the need to feel better brings us back to food.

Mystery solved. Thanks for your reply!

OK folks, time to get off my big fat *kitten* and lose a lot of weight. Starting weight: 227 pounds. Goal weight: 180 pounds. Biggest hurdle: STOP eating so much damn food. Even when I'm not hungry I just eat and eat and eat. Day/Weight/Comment 3/21 3/22 3/23 3/24 3/25 3/26 3/27 3/28 3/29 3/30

Yes, DC Rainmaker and DesFit have great reviews.

I've recently spent far too much time researching fitness watches and have come to the conclusion that the output is the result of a lot of guess work. It doesn't matter who manufactures the watch. I currently own a Fitbit Versa 1. I can stand in one spot, swing my arms back and forth and it will start counting steps. I…

Great post. I too want to do intermittent fasting. And yes, there needs to be an over 50 group.
