I was here a few years ago and got a little too comfortable after reaching my goal. Lost 150+ and put back on 50 of them. Anyone who needs some support and motivation feel free to add me! New friends are always great to have.

Before I came to MFP was already almost 90 pounds down from my original. One thing Ive learned is there is no magic plan. It all comes down to calories in vs calories out for weight loss. From what ive learned it has to be about changing your lifestyle, or else as soon as you get off your "diet" it all comes back. The…

"Can I ask you something"

Ive been playing Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate for the 3ds for 100+ hours this last month, and that's with a full time job and school full time, kinda scary to think if I didn't have so much going on!

Final Fantasy 1 for NES, sat there watching my dad play, he said I couldn't unless I knew how to read...so I learned to read, then I played the game...and here we are =D

I play league of legends when I have time. Feel free to add me, IGN: BloodyFiesta

My biggest surprise will always be my gall bladder not functioning correctly due to all the weight ive lost and having to have it removed before it ruptured lol...Other then that im still adjusting to having a "tail bone"

Don't see a fat person in the mirror anymore, at least not all the time. Mentally is still a different story though and while I can seem cocky or goofy around friends, with people I do not know or haven't know a long time I still seem to slip back into how I thought everyone new viewed me back when I started, so might…

I am only 6'5 but my goal is only 220-225 and my current weight is 230 for what its worth. I guess it depends on body type and muscle structure of the individual. To be honest long as its not creating a medical issue, go to what makes you happy. I constantly hear I don't need to lose anymore, but im going to finish these…

To be honest, every single game community out there is going to have a lot of horribly rude people. Competitive team based games like league of legends or DOTA even more so. You have to learn to brush it off or ignore it entirely. People generally don't seem to care about manners when there are no consequences.

While im still about 10 pounds away from my initial goal after a little holiday splurging, im still 150 below my starting point and I know how you feel. Compared to my strength when I started this Journey I actually feel a little self conscious in the gym just for different reasons then before. Now feeling a bit weak. Just…

Ive bought quite a bit on the steam sale, was looking at Endless Legend last night, ive heard great things about it.

I haven't played for a little while now but I am on siren as well. Its enjoyable but life got busy for a while there.

Im within 10 pounds of my ultimate goal, closer to 5 for original. I took a 2 week break at maintenance for the first time this year and now im locking things down. We got this =)

I planned on getting it for the PC, cant decide between this and Alien:Isolation because I loved the old school Alien, Aliens movies with ripley and people are saying it is finally doing the movie justice. But then the other 138 out of 171 games on steam I own but never played will be ignored...life is rough

I tend to switch up and go evil 99% of the time after I play a good guy. 1st Playthrough = Saint, 2nd Playthrough = Epitomy of evil but will do one good deed to tell myself there is someone worse then me in this game universe haha.

Right now I have actually been going old school with a game called mount and blade warband, and just now discovered the mod community and just how far a lot of them have expanded the gameplay. I bought GTA 5 for ps3 on a sale but my system died while installing updates, probably going to get it for PS4 in a week or two.

My mom said that, then I started singing to her with my stomach how my milkshake doesn't bring any girls to the yard, and she hasn't said anything since. Was about 20 pounds ago...

You can always make time. Typical workday wake up at 4:30, am at work by 5, work til 2:30 in the afternoon, get my hour and a half of gym time in, shower at the gym, go directly to class, study for an hour once I get home and and im bed by 11. On days I consult at my second job I get up earlier and do my workout before…

I think this is what people do not realize. When you count calories, there is something in people that lead them to believe its an extra hour of work a day doing it. I tell people especially if you don't have new meals every single day it ends up taking a few minutes at most to log everything.

Last time it happened to me was at work from a male coworker who said counting calories is stupid and obsessive, so I said "Compared to what? Looking down and not seeing anything past your stomach?" He got defensive cause he has a huge gut but never brought it up again.

Excuse the wall of data but just going to outline my current 12 week regiment I am on just to try to identify if the deficiency is there. I feel pretty confident on the lifting side, but the nutrition is another story. Monday: Chest/Biceps 4x 8-12 Flat Bench, Incline DB Press, DB Flys, Pec Dec 4x 8-12 Straight Bar Curls,…

You guys are subtle when it comes to other people lol. The females I work with seem genuinely concerned I might be losing too much but are supportive so it does not bother me. Last time I got a negative comment from a guy I work with was him telling me it was pathetic I waste my time logging because we were at lunch and I…

I like kashi go lean crunch personally

Its something you unfortunately get used to. Ive lost 152 pounds so far and I get it from all angles with the comments and people seem to think I am going to become anorexic even though I say I only am 3 pounds from my original goal then ill figure out where I want to go. You know whats best for you.

Haha people get onto me all the time at work for refusing donuts and pastries and cake ect, feels awkward at first, but eventually its almost second nature. I think a lot of it is because its new. Like the first few times, the ladies who enjoy bringing in baked goods got offended but now they ask and doesn't bother them at…

Im 29 currently and down 151 pounds currently, with 4 left to go. I am almost at goal but if anyone needs some advice or even a little motivation feel free to add me.

Im waiting for the new Civ game to erase all free time I have that isnt used for studying.

Guy at the convenient store was trying to get work with construction crews as he had been unemployed for a while and was only asking for a cup of coffee. Every morning for two weeks bought him a cup of coffee and a bagel a few months back. Last week he saw me at publix and paid my grocery bill even though I told him not to…
