  • Yes, we had a discussion about my weight right before he got deployed again and he found out that I out weigh him by about 15lbs. I am almost 5'9 and he is about 5'11. While he is gone we are both working on getting back on track and getting in shape again. Can't wait to weigh less than him.

  • Fat taste good and it is not bad for you in moderation. Fat free foods have so much additional stuff added to make them still taste good it is better to just use the regular stuff. Sugar has about 16 calories a tea spoon, and doesn't come with all the risks associated with artificial sweetners

  • Some people are quicker to gain muscle and slower to lose fat. If this is the case the muscle you are gaining will weigh more than the fat that you are losing, and if you are losing the fat slowly that would actually make your clothing tighter and not show much of a decrease in your weight. Don't give up yet, hang in…
