Thanks, now to get rid of the last of the belly :D

It wasn't a metaphor, it was blatantly done that way.

Yeah, that was kind of the idea behind the Alien movies. The psychology behind it was basically to rape the audience/cast. Makes it pretty effective at scaring people.

As infrequently as possible.... That said, I will be spending a lot of time at the pool this summer as well as riding my bicycle. But I don't consider that "working out"

Thanks... Although, she makes me look much better than I really do. Blast, yeah, that's one word for them.... We will be heading off to the pool soon. Hopefully I will get some peace :D

Thanks. Being a bigger person I avoided the camera a lot. I've got some other pics that are kind of disturbing to see.

Macronutrients = Protein, Carbs, Fat... Three sources to get your calories from. On a basic level meat = protein+fat fruit/veggies = carbs. It gets really fun when you start trying to make sure you hit your micronutrient goals :D Eh, no one said it would be easy. I do believe it's worth it in the long run. Every journey…

I had a girl from one of my classes ask me if I wanted to get some coffee. My wedding ring no longer fits so I wear it on a chain around my neck. I politely told her that I was married, but if she would like to get a drink and chat that's cool. My wife has really enjoyed my weight loss though. It makes me happy in so many…

Thanks! And don't fool yourself, she did it for her. She's lost 40 some odd pounds too... She's a good woman, lacks judgement sometimes (I mean, she did marry me) but good none the less.

Construction. My city is being torn up. It's good in the future sense, but no one knows how to drive when there is construction. Or they get stupid because they have to detour and have no idea where they are.

I read a lot. It helps keep my mind busy. I've found that when I'm bored, I eat. Backpacking has been good. Lugging around a 20lb pack for miles allows me to eat more. And of course, the exercise from all the walking. I also like to swim, I make sure that I don't take money to the pool because they have a concession stand…

Thanks, replacing my all my clothes with stuff that fits has helped a lot too. It's easier to feel good when your clothes fit as opposed to feeling frumpy because they are all too big. It's helped with the confidence too.

Someone is a redditor.

Base of spinach or spring mix peppers (red/yellow/green, sometimes jalepeño) tomato avocado meat (usually chicken, sometimes ground beef with homemade taco seasoning, rare occasion pork or steak) cucumber broccoli Dressings are usually regular olive oil balsamic vinegar mix or salsa... I'm pretty bland, but I like these…

I eat most of mine raw in the form of a salad. I hate steamed veggies though. Most of the time, if I cook them, they will be oven roasted with a bit of olive oil.

I had long hair as a kid. Down to my shoulders. Around 19 I noticed it was really starting to thin out on top. I buzzed my head then and have kept it short ever since. I didn't want to be that guy with long hair on the sides and bald on top. Kids, school, work, and general stress have sped the process up a little bit and…

I know the song, now it's stuck in my head. Thanks! :D

Thanks, I was playing with math the other day and realized I'm now 2/3rds the man I was last year... heheh

This...

I dont. I'm not knocking the idea, its just I don't look at it as cheating anymore. I eat healthy most of the time. Sometimes I dont. There is nothing wrong with a fast food meal every now and then (unless it's McD's, bleh). The trick is (and your body will eventually adjust to this) when you eat healthy you'll find eating…

I'm going to keep this one for the nostalgic value of it. Well, that and I get a kick out of putting on my belt and wrapping it thru the belt loops on the back of my pants. It's a reminder of where I've been and where I want to be. Honestly this is probably the last hole that will be put in because I just can't see myself…

I ran into my old boss a few days ago and he asked if I was sick. I didn't take his meaning at first but then I realized that I've lost almost 70lb and recently decided to embrace my baldness and start shaving my head. I got a good laugh out of it.

My boys are 3 years apart (6 and 9), we sucked it up and bought passes to the local pool. They swim all day and are pretty tuckered out by the time we come home (6-8pm). Also we made video games into a privilege only to be played after they have played outside for a reasonable length of time AND they have had good…

I feel compelled to point out that you're wearing a grey shirt in the first pic and no shirt in the second.... I know this isn't what you're asking though... Looks to me like you've lost some in the waist.

The problem is money... I have none. It's totally a first world problem and I feel bad complaining about it.

I've had 2-5 happen to me as well. (I do body weight stuff at home because the gym is out of my budget) It's a great feeling.

Yeah, the old belt has had 4 more holes added to it because I'm too cheap to buy a new one. I've still got a belly, but I'm getting closer to the weight I want to be.

My wife asked me about this once.... Basically, I (and probably most men) first started talking to my wife because she is hot... I continued talking to her because she's freaking awesome. The chick on the TV I like because she's hot... Chances are, the part that would make me continue to talk to her isn't there.

round = wedges rectangular = squares. this is not debatable.

Lift heavy things 2x a week... move a lot the other days.. maybe one or two sprinting sessions if I'm feeling particularly energetic.
