How about alternating days? One day you go in the morning and he goes in the evening. The next day he gets to go in the morning. That way, if he doesn't follow through, you are still getting to workout and don't have to give up all your mornings.

At my age, the chance of finding a single guy who isn't divorced is pretty slim. That being said, a divorce can be a positive thing if one is smart enough to learn from it. It might just make for a much better person to date!

I am trying to be totally not a creeper here, but if you will be working in a busy area, you should probably wear a shirt! You might cause traffic congestion if you are shirtless. If you are in a more remote location, definitely go shirtless ( am sure your wife would greatly enjoy it!!)!

If it goes in my mouth, it goes on my food diary. That is the only way that I can accurately monitor how my body is responding to food. Eating food you like isn't cheating, though. It is just an aspect of your chosen lifestyle. :) No need to feel guilt!

In 2007, at the age of 40, I saw 205 lbs on my scale. Thankfully, today it read 140 lbs!

I just updated my photo with a thinner version....and I definitely think I look MUCH MUCH older :(

Not to state the obvious, but..... I love the person I have become since losing 60+ lbs.

This week as a reward to myself for winning my gym's Biggest Loser competition, I started wearing this!

Love it! But they forgot the "Creepy staring guy"

I have only unfriended one person. Honestly, I got tired of her posting EVERY day that "Today is a cheat day" or "I did *some normal activity* so I am going to splurge". Maybe I am not a nice, supportive person, but my other friends are out there working their tails off and truly changing their life habits to achieve their…

44 for another few weeks. I don't mind getting older, as long as I am still getting smaller!

Just a side note..... The most amusing concert I ever saw was Ted Nugent and Jackyl. Ted was out on stage shooting arrows at this giant fake elk and Jackyl had real chain saws for the Lumberjack song. I couldn't tell you if the music was good (...probably not), but it was definitely entertaining and memorable!

It is a toss up between Motley Crue (back in the day) and Avenged Sevenfold. Both were incredible!

I plan on posting next week! Can't wait!

Always happy to have more friends from this great state! Add me if you wish!

Bump for later!

OMG! Must bump for later!

I have a denim skirt that I wore when I was 19 (looooooong time ago!!) It hangs with my other skirts and pants. This weekend I tried it on AND IT FIT!!! I am going to go get a pair of size 8 jeans for my next motivator.

Congratulations!! I am starting C25K in 8 days! Can't wait!

Congratulations!!!

I hate fish, but love seafood (crab, lobster, shrimp, calamari, etc)

Water. I have already proven to myself that I can give up everything else!

I have a stack of clothes on my dresser that are too large. It seems that I am adding something to that pile at least once a week. On a sad note, though, some of the clothes are my favorites :(

I am 44 and not embarrassed to admit it!

Don't give up!! It will happen if you are really dedicated to it!!! Thanks for replying, btw. :)

....and that is why I quit sliding down bannisters.

Yep...another Minnesotan!! I live up near Duluth! I hope your experience here on MFP is a great as mine has been! Add as friend if you wish!

I would not choose a trainer based on those facts alone. Really, education and physical fitness are like apples and oranges...aren't they?
