  • Morning team. Normally my weigh in day starts with a cup of tea and a single dollop of cream. And I wouldn't eat anything until I dropped a bit of water weight through the morning. But to my amazement, the scales are being kind this morning so I'm just going to log it and go enjoy a nice hot brekky for a change. Housemates…
  • Hi all, back from the bush again for the weekend (at least) I've got to catch up on the last few days of posting, but I thought I'd start by saying hi and doing my daily. Daily Post (Friday) Day/Goals: Bit of a shocker today TBH.. Got in around 3am last night, woke with a headache and it's only just fading away now. I…
  • Daily Post (Tuesday) Day/Goals: Good strong day today. Finished with a few hours spent cooking up portioned meals for the rest of the week. Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: Yes Water Intake: Yes Last week I bought myself one of those food vacuum seal thingys. I don't have any refrigeration out in the bush yet, and the…
  • Hey hockeymom, welcome to the team. Don't be shy now. :) @ssssanaaaa That sounds fantastic. It can be so hard to challenge the family's normal. I tried and failed to bring my family along with me on this. Won't forget my mum looking at me indignantly.. "But I'm not fat" she said.. Uhhh.. No mum, of course not I says.. It's…
  • Just saw this picture online.. Had a chuckle.
  • Daily Post (Saturday) Day/Goals: Calories.. yes. That new workout plan will have to start tomorrow hahaha. Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: No Water Intake: Yes @missemmibelle I'm a big fan of the routine. I have a few favorite go-to meals which sure do make the logging easier.
  • Daily Post (Sunday) Day/Goals: Sunday is my rest day. Mission accomplished. Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: No Water Intake: Yes I feel like I'm in the danger zone. My resolve has been getting weaker over the last week or so, and with it my discipline. I always make my calorie targets, and nutrient macro's for that…
  • Daily Post (Saturday) Day/Goals: I am just hurting at the moment my lower back is definitely out of whack.. Sure is making it hard to maintain physical productivity. Will go see the back wizard on Monday. Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: No Water Intake: Yes Username: Fyreside Week: March Week 1 PW =256.1lb CW=255.7lb I…

  • I heard a good one the other day.. "A goal without a plan is just a dream."
  • Daily Post (Thursday ) Day/Goals: Started the day with a doozy of a calf cramp, which kinda set the tone for the rest of the day lol. Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: not much Water Intake: not enough @gjaholy33 Argh.. there is nothing worse than that feeling of being stuck. Rest up well..
  • Daily Post (Wednesday ) Day/Goals: Went to fix a truck.. Mostly fixed a truck. Ended the day having an altercation with my ole man.. Sigh.. Can't choose family. Still pretty disappointed tho.

  • Gah... I just opened my browser to find my daily post for tuesday sitting here unposted lol. It's nothing exciting even, but.. Daily Post Monday Day/Goals:Season has turned rapidly, from a heatwave barely 10 days ago, it maxed out at 18deg Celcius (not cold but definitely chilly) today. Track: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise:…
  • Yikes!! GL with your comps. @jenngitch According to my activity tracker/HR monitor, I burn way more calories doing farmwork than I do in the gym :) Have a great week. @CourtneyLomonaco Hey Happy Birthday for yesterday.
  • Daily Post Monday Day/Goals: Had a pretty cruisy day, but it contained a real NSV. I had considered if there was one day a year I could/should just leave the scales out of things and eat what I want, it would be today. But I'm impressed to know I just couldn't bring myself to break the pattern I've established and eat more…
  • @crazedknight Hey big congrats for hitting the 200's last month. On the subject of success, a shout out to @jennfalzon1979 and @tinak33 for your awesome % loss last month. Really inspiring stuff. And a warm welcome to all our new team members.
  • Hi all, I'm Bryce from East coast Australia. I am spending more time at my property well out in the bush where I'm building and generally improving the land. So I will go quiet from time to time since I have very limited connection to the world. but you will find me quite chatty when I'm back in town :) Last Sept, at 307lb…
  • @ssssanaaaa Most important thing is you're on the path. Losing weight is why we all came here, but at the end of the day, developing the lifestyle that keeps us at a good weight is the real challenge. Have a great March. @gjaholy33 What a great month, congrats.
  • Wow, 222 posts later :D You guys and gals rock. I really value sharing this journey. @gemwolf110 Wow, imagine how hard your co-workers kidneys have to work to process all that aqua. The mind boggles at how one could possibly replenish enough electrolytes to maintain healthy blood chemistry. On another note, hope your dog…

  • Hi all, I'm Bryce, part time outback recluse from Australia. I've been with the team since Oct. and I am 39lb into my journey from 300lb to Onederland. Welcome to the team all the new folks, and welcome back to the returning players. Lets have a great Febuary.
  • Argh.. dangitt. Distracted by my housemates coming home from holidays, I managed to forget to log a big 210cal coffee.. Only noticing after dialing my dinner in to the exact target I was aiming for. Came in under MFP's net goal just fine, but over my own personal goal for the first time in a month. And it had to be the day…
  • It's just unbelievable how fast Januarys go. It's the first year in a decade where I actually feel like I've hit the ground running on a fresh year. Bring on Feb. :) @mjohemme Ohh, I didn't realise it was that kind of game night. That is way cool, I really miss my days of table top gaming. @Calli1616 Let me know how it…
  • I've got to share a recipe that has been rocking my tastebuds for a few weeks now. It's a super simple one that can be done with as few as 4 ingredients. I've seen many similar things, but never a recipe that is the same. This came from a mate of mine about 20 years ago, who threw it together one day before we went rock…
  • For me it's like, "you scales better tell me some good news... Don't make me come down there... You wouldn't like me when I'm heavy.. " etc.. :) @ka97 It's never fun to be under an injury cloud. But you really owe it to yourself to get a good heal. Wishing you a full and rapid recovery. Daily Post:(Thursday) Track: Yes…
  • @ka97 Originally, I joined for the competition. But as the time goes by, my ambition has been tempered by the weeks where I did everything I could and still didn't lose weight. I think I value the team more than the scoreboard now, and every step any of us take towards our goal is a victory. In summary, I wouldn't mind.…
