Howdy! I am 5'4" (or 5'5" according to my licence) and have been stuck in the 250's for about 2 years now. I am currently challenging myself in a No Sweet Treats challenge. This includes cookies, cake, candies, ice cream, pie, etc. I did that for the first week with no results by itself... but last week (the second week) I…

I'm not going completely sugar free, but I am doing a No Sweet Treat challenge. No cookies, candies, cake, ice cream, pie, etc. I do not like deprivation diets because it only makes me crave it more. When I lose 10 pounds I will allow myself ONE sweet treat. Then I'll go another 10 pounds, repeating the challenge until I'm…

Howdy! I'm 27. I recently came back to MFP after on and off use for a while. Using it was such a process that I did not want to mess with. But I have been stuck in the 250s for two years now and need to lose the weight. I have been doing well for over a week now and have seen some promising results so far. I have also been…

Howdy. I am a recent college graduate from TAMUG. I did work there, but summer housing fell through this year. If I was down there right now, I'd too would be living off of chicken, tuna, canned veggies, fruits, beans, brown rice, eggs, lunch meat.... cheap stuff that doesn't spoil quickly. I have had a hard time being…

Howdy!!! Sorry I forgot to post weight yesterday. May 30 - 257 lbs. My workout yesterday consisted of a "hike" on the treadmill for 38 minutes, a 1000 meter row in 6:40, and then leg strength training. I rotate my different strength training: M&Th - Legs, Tu&F - Arms, W&Sa - Calisthenics(Body weight). Current weight - 256…

Howdy! I'll join. Weight loss has been a slow process for me. SW was 343 lbs. 8 years ago. CW is 255 as of this morning (yes, I do weigh everyday). My GW as of now is 170 (but BMI says the 145 would put me in healthy range). I have been maintaining the 250's for the last year and it is annoying. Now that I am finished with…

Technically we're not. abandoned mammal babies born in captivity (and some wild born when found) are often placed with a surrogate mother. Take a look at these links... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2646117/Cubbing-White-baby-lions-adopted-dog-mother-refused-feed-them.html…

Howdy yall! I'm a junior right now taking summer classes at my community college, so i think I might be a senior by the end of summer. But, I still have two years of college at Texas A&M University at Galveston. I can't stand taking a ton of hours per semester. I still need to lose 100+ pounds. I haven't had any sugary…

Sorry guys meant months.

I stopped drinking cokes(any really any fizzy drinks, except for the occasional punch at wedding and baby showers) 5 or 6 years ago. I had started drinking more water in the weeks to going off them completely. One morning I had a sip of coke and I did not like the taste any more. Good luck with the habit kickin yall.

I have rarely have had any carbonated drink in the past 5 years, Before that, I liked soda a lot. Back in early 2008, I started drinking more water, drinking less and less soda. One day I took a sip of mom's cola while we were at McD one morning, and it tasted horrible. The only times I have anything fizzy is ginger ale in…

I'm about to head to Texas A&M University Galveston in late August, but I've been in college for 5 semesters here at home. I have been struggling to lose weight for like 5 months now. Been stuck in the 270's feels like forever! Been working out hard the past three days, and now I am sore. I hope to lose enough weight to go…

So ready to be back on a schedule! Staying in the house most of the break has been driving me crazy. I am looking forward to my classes as well. I start back on Monday. Having a gym up at the campus is awesome. I am stuck there all day since I have no car, so I can workout in the mornings and afternoons. We also have a…

I love the gym on campus during the semester while its open. I go to the YMCA when dad goes during the breaks. Honestly, I feel more uncomfortable at the Y than I do at the campus gym. Too many fit people at the Y. Don't be embarrassed to workout in front of your classmates. A lot of times I go in the late afternoon/early…

Spaghetti Squash is really good, but I can't really stand the taste of squash by itself, so I add spaghetti sauce on it.

I'm gonna…

My family went on a two week +3 days vacation back in June, road tripping all the way to DC(main attraction) and back to Tejas. We tried to eat as healthy and cheaply as we could (Subway was our best friend). We didn't always eat great because of the options we had around us, but we were constantly walking around…

I'm a player. Almost 6.5 miles a day. I could do that easily on a recumbent, but I do not have one at my house. So, the stationary will have to do. My behind is gonna be so sore by the end of the month. I went a little over 5 miles yesterday in 30 minutes so I will definitely give it my best shot. :)
