I know exactly how you feel. A few years ago I had achilles tendon surgery and blew up to 271 lbs. through hard work and dedication and the help and motivation of friends on this site, I dropped to 197 lbs. Sadly, and through I my own faults, I am here today at 258.9 lbs. I am a retired Marine and can't believe I let my…

10 % of people are genetic a**holes. They can't help it, they wetre born that way. Keep running and don't let them get to you. Prove them wrong and stay strong. Best wishes to you and great job!!!!!!!!!

I should have disappeared by now, haha. I don't put any stock in that.

I went through same feelings, but I kept telling myself it's for me, not them. I stuck with it and went from 253 lbs to 190 in 10 months. You will find that most people in gym are supportive and encouraging. There will always be the few who aren't, but forget them. Stick with it and in time you will see results. Best of…

I just finished last Sunday, tough but well worth it.

Disco duck from 1976.

when I was a kid, it was Chief Jay Strongbow.

are you talking home defense? my suggestion for a home is a shotgun. If you have ever tried firing a pistol at night, you know it's tough to hit the target. Throw in darkness, fear and noise, and you have increased the odds of missing. Shot gun covers more area and less penetration of adjoining walls, ie bedrooms where…

don't expect to lose big numbers each wek. Slow and steady is better for you. Don't get down, it will come off if you stay dedicated. Hell, some weeks you will gain, be patient.

great job, I just did that a couple of weeks ago, what a great feeling.

Stay true to yourself first. If you do meet a guy, let him get to know you for who you really are. This will help prevent some problems later down the road.

Hi Suzie, welcome to the site. It is a great site with lots of motivated, knowledgable people. It is a little tough at first getting into the routine of logging everything down, but definitely gets easier as you enter more things. Be honest. log all you eat down, and you will be fine. Feel free to add as a friend if you…

It's good for your heart, just because you want to lose weight doesn't mean you should stop cardio workouts. In my opinion, a good combination of both is good for you. What that combo is, well, that's up to you to decide. But pointless, never!!

Have you mixed up your work outs? Don't get stagnant doing same routine. Do not give up, you can do this, feel free to add me as a friend if you want. My name is Norm.

you know about the sugar, what are you drinking? I didn't see any water acoountability. are you getting enough? Other than that, You seem fine.

Be honest with what you log in don't get discouraged when you go over- we all go over at one time or another It's a life time change, not a fad M ake a lot of friends on here, they are great for support and knowledge, and motivation. Be patient, we didn't put it on overnight, it isn't going to come off overnight. Set short…

I am in this. My name is Norman and I just ran a 5k this past Monday in 28:50 ! I want to run 2 more of them before Christmas and break 25 minutes, reaching I know, but strong mind, strong body. I am currently at 191 lbs, want to be at 186 by Christmas. Just finishing Insanity in 2 weeks, getting ready to join a Tough…

I want to travel with my wife and live to someday see and play with my grandchildren !!!

Mandy has a pretty smile and attractive eyes.

she gets up with me at 3AM and makes my breakfast while I shower.I tell her I can do it but she insists and then we have coffee, talk, and I leave for work at 4:15 am. Great wife!!!

Don't run your long training runs at race pace. Wish I would have known. Also, get into habit of knowing what foods to eat before ouy run. Don't eat something different on race day that you haven't done before. I became the port a john king.Best of luck and have fun!!!

I am currently on month2 , day 3. It is tough, but so worth the feeling when you finish each workout. You folks can do this, you just need to keep your mind in the game and you are fortunate to have a coach with you. Best wishes to you all. You won't regret doing it!!
