Hi Beth, my name is Norm. I am from the US of A and live in Rhode Island. However I am a die hard Montreal Canadiens fan. Feel free to add me as a friend. My profile will tell you more about me. Welcome to MPF and best of luck to you.

I wouldn't up the calories just yet. I say this because I looked at your food diary and you haven't eaten nearly enough with a 1200 limit. Also, I think you need more substance in your food. It appears to me that you are eating small picks, get more substance and you may feel stronger, which will allow you to workout…

As a retired Marine, I say Navy. It was a Navy Corpsman who gave me sound advice when I was in Okinawa and my daughter was born with a paralyzed arm. All the doctors said she would never use it. Doc (HM2) Madrid said do these range of motion exercises and she will be fine. He was right. She was all state tennis and out…

the smallest state- Rhode Island, and no we are not a part of New York!

you need to figure out why you can't control the eating. My wife and daughter both had gastric bypass surgery and it is not a cure all. If you eat too much after surgery you will find yourself dumping from the sugars and it is very possible to put that weight back on. By now you should have already seen a nutritionist and…

Hi, my name is Norm and been on here since Jan 2012, to date I have lost 56 lbs, 46 of it while using MPF. Feel free to add as a friend if you would like to. Either way, best of luck!!

Fave- Queen and Springsteen , least - Journey, just tired of hearing them played on my channel all the time

That is un friggan believable!!!What a great job and definitely a motivating story. Hollywood couldn't have found a more uplifting ending. Thanks for keeping me determined to go on with this. Best of luck as a Fireman and stay safe!!!!!!!!

steamed cauliflower with fire roasted peppers, hummus, and Canadian bacon are my new best friends.

I think you look stunning in both.I think the reason people are saying you look too thin on the after pics may be because your skin is lightet. Get a tan and I thin you would have some different opinions. That's my opinion, but great job and in my view, you are Hot either pics.Keep up the great work and dedication!!!

I am trying to get to 14% but still have ways to go. Currently 5'8" and 197. Don't know what percentage is right now but sure it's not where I want to be.

just went from 253 to 199, wife bought me a certificate for full body massage.It was great!!!!!!!!!!!!

Proud lefty, my dad was, I am, and my son is. I pretty much do everything with my left, except one. But that has to be cencsored!!

At my heaviest I was 271, now at 199 and feeling great. Since joining here, I lost 44 lbs.

mine is simple, dill pickles- not many cals but damn that sodium!!!!

with a nice set of calves, Definitely sexy!!!!!!!!!!!

I marinate mine because I had same problem.

Just had 2 glasses of wine with my wife. If I need to be that good, I would rather have more weight. I wanna live life, not wish it away!!!

A British accent does it for me, on a woman, of course, as long as her name isn't Lola!! I was stationed in England for a year and a half and hearing a British woman speak was almost as good as sex!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALMOST!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Lisa, my name is Norman. I have been here since Jan 2012 and have dropped 42 lbs. Great site and good motivating people. I was stationed in England in Newquay at RAF St. Mawgans in 1979-1981. Feel free to add as afriend if you want to do so. I wish you best of luck and just know that you can do this if you set mind to…

I have because I was stuck at same weight for a month. She made a few minor adjustments to my food intake and it worked magic. I would recommend it!!

you look great and you have a knock out smile and gorgeous eyes!!!

I used to drink 3-4 cans of soda a day til I went to a hypnotist. Since then, a year and a half ago, I have had at most 3 or 4 sodas. Now I mix bigelow green tea with my crystal lite and i drink that all the time. Also, when I go out to eat, I order water with lemon wedges. Good luck!!!

I think he is selfish and you are crazy to accept his answers. My wife is heavy and I would never give her those bull**** answers like you get. We still are highly sexually into each other after 27 yrs of marriage. If you compromise here, where will it end. In my opinion, you could do better!! Sorry if I hurt your feelings…

in 1977 I saw Queen for 1st concert and last was Wynonna in 1997. Need to get out more, I know!!

I am a custodian at a college and although I don't log in cleaning as exercise everyday, somedays I do. There are days where I have to work my *kitten* off to get the building ready for classes and I am litteraly covered in sweat from hustling and moving chairs and furniture, etc. So, yes, I can understand why some people…

so shoot the rabbit and get some protein!!!

real name is Norm and this user name was given to me by my wife. Let's me feel in charge every now and then.

hi. I used to be stationed in the Marines in Kaneohe. Loved Hawaii,and used to go to Ewa beach to qualify on their rifle range. Anyhow, if you need friends, feel free to add me as I am on here every day giving support where needed. If not, that's okay and best of luck to you. Aloha and mahalo!!!
