  • I have a big head. I wear a big hat size. I thought my head was just getting bigger and my hats were getting very tight. I wore hat for the first time in months (partly due to the really tight hats I owned) and my head has lost weight, a lot. From so tight it left a dark red line on my forehead to fitting a little loose…
  • Feeling like you are letting yourself down because you are not as healthy as you can be. Which includes feeling sluggish, hating to take pictures, and avoiding doing stuff where you will really "show off" how out of shape you are.
  • I fit into a size pants that I havent worn since before college. Funny enough the Old Navy I went to only had my old size, and one pair in the smaller size that fits now. Always felt like they never had my old size, and they always have the size I am wearing now. Oh the irony, but such sweet irony.
  • Losing 20 lbs is a lot. Going from being inactive to very active will also account for this as well.

  • Measured yesterday, 3 inches off the waist, 2 inches off my chest, an inch off my hips. My arms are now the same size. I can workout harder, and longer than could in a long long time. Its super great.
  • Yeah, thats weird. My protein goal is only 81, granted I am living on a deficit right now to loose weight. So a chicken breast (not the whole breast just one side) has 30 grams of protein, that goal means you would have to eat 6 good size chicken breasts a day. That is pretty crazy. That would also put you past your…
  • Humans for sure didnt hunt birds that were similar to chickens.
  • Oh riddles, oh man, gotta love it. http://dietdatabase.com/1-pound-body-fat-facts-pictures/ Muscle that takes up the same volume as fat, will weigh more than that fat.
  • I like to weigh myself once a week. While I am losing weight I know I will use a 1 lb loss from day to day as an excuse to be able to eat more the next day. I weigh myself at the gym before and after the workout the one time a week. I sweat a lot so the before and after are usually somewhere between 2 and 10 lb difference…
