Start small and whatever you do, make it realistic, sustainable, and don’t view it as a diet. Make it a lifestyle. Discipline over motivation. Good Luck. Add me as a friend if you like. As far as not knowing what you’re doing, you wouldn’t be the first to have felt that way. I think everyone has felt that at some level.…

Thanks for the comment. If I’m being honest, there’s days when I have that reaction too.

48 here. I’d like to join this group.

It’s been two years to the day since I received a gift from a very good friend. He gave me a good kick in the ace and MFP. In those two years I’ve connected with some truly awesome and inspirational people from all over the world. I’m looking forward to all the years to come. In progress. Never easy, always worth it.

I don’t know a quality free one but Gymaholic is top notch.

Great job my dude. Our weight loss numbers are about the same but 226lbs looks more squared away on you. 😂😂😂

Thank you. Forever a work in progress.

Thank you. It’s still a work in progress but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t pleased with the progress.

A true friend of mine I played football with in college called me after seeing a pic of me on FB. He essentially said three things - you’re not playing football anymore, you don’t have to eat like it’s a union job, and if you don’t get your crap together you’re going to be dead in 10 years. Now mind you there are about…

There will be days when you are not motivated. On those days be disciplined.

Wow. You don’t even look like the same person. Congratulations on your changes.

397 at my peak. Right around 235 now.

I use my Apple Watch with the Gymaholic app.

Add me up.

When I grow up I want to be like you. Well done Sir.

A friend of mine says he stays fit to NOT SUCK AT LIFE. While that wasn’t my reason to initially commit to a better lifestyle, it certainly fits me now. Petty? probably. My reason? ABSOFRIGGINLOUTELY!!!

Thanks. I feel pretty awesome too. Not bad for 48.

Great progress everyone. I’ve added a bit more muscle mass but I’ve also added a bit of the “less desirable” mass also. The facial expression is an indication of how I feel about it. 😂😂😂

About 18 months.

Maintaining 205-210 since March 2018. SW 395 #noshavenovember #took47yearstogrow 😂

An average adult man.....not something I’m proud had to happen; more a statement of fact.

Goodwill.....no need to keep them. Won’t be needing them....EVER!

Definitely the same person. I coach at the school on the left. We went to football camp at EWU and won their Friday Night Lights competition. T-shirt’s were the prize. And thanks for the affirmation. Much appreciated.

Still a ways to go, but making progress.

I hit 500 today.

Thank you!!! I just bought these shorts. I like them a “little” baggy. 😂😂😂 SW 395 CW 205

Getting my post workout protein.

My MFP group is pretty small and of that small group, very few make comments regularly. That said, the additional support is nice but I find so many other reasons to be committed - good health, general fitness, feeling amazing, etc. Sometimes our most significant reinforcement is internal mainly because we know ourselves…
