Sounds like my boyfriend's story except the M word is not in his vocabulary. He's Paleo. He texted me yesterday to let me know he's down to 176.

You might want to not Google Merkin at work.

Best thread ever.

I'm currently stuck in the 180's. 140 or 127.

30 days seems like a really long time for a juice fast.

Possibly, but now that I'm 30 and single, I've got a pool of single 30-something's to chose from %99.9 of whom refuse to ever re-marry because either A) Their previous marriage was just like this or worse or B) All their buddies marriages (or previous marriages) are just like this or worse None of them believe me that not…

Ok... to all the guys out there that are using this as fuel for their "never settle down" fire... I swear not all women are like this! This woman is a horrible wife, and soon hopefully be a horrible divorcee...

There are definitely plenty of single ladies out who can appreciate a man who can make a spread sheet, and know how to be a good partner!

And FWIW, we schedule it too. Life is busy. We have very full, packed, crammed days. So we make it a priority and schedule it. Rarely, usually in the event of a medical condition or extreme pain and exhaustion for the day and workouts, does it get skipped. We would never skip it to watch FRIENDS re-runs. In fact, that…

Best response.

Totally agree!

That is wonderful! I have GOT to get me one of these! I found one at Goodwill a long time ago for $10 and regret not getting it soooo much!

Thoughts follow actions.

Maybe you should ask her about it. It honestly sounds like drinking was involved.

Ok best thread ever :drinker:

I know many people with super high IQ's like this and it is not abnormal for them to be very disfunctional in certain aspects of their lives.

That's right. The only person worth comparing yourself too is who you were yesterday. And ditch media. I've been quite content with no television in my home for over two years now. You'd think all those sexy bodies would be inspirational, but I'm not feeling it. My TV watching friends gain and gain, and they're all like,…

Katie so far....

That's what I'm trying to do, is add five pounds per workout until I can't. That's what the Strong Lifts site recommended. Fortunately for me my lovely boyfriend forgot to pack the weights this morning, so I get an out of jail free card today. I'll try to turn up the heat Saturday night. I gotta work my 2nd job all damn…

Ok... This is what I have done. June 12, 2014 Thruster 4x6 at 32lb Barbell Row 3x20 at 32lb Bench Press 3x20 at 32lb June 14, 2014 Thruster 3x6 at 32lb Barbell Row 3x20 at 32lb Bench Press 3x13 at 32lb June 17, 2014 Bench 3x10 at 32lb Squat 3x10 at 32lb Military Press 3x10 at 32lb Barbell Curl 3x10 at 32lb Deadlift 3x10 at…

Ok... I had to go to a meeting, but I'm back now. Hang with me, I know for the first several workouts I didn't know the weight of the bar so the info in my journal is slightly off. It's all in there so you could pull the exercise journal for June and July. Basically I had stuff logged in at 25lb that I found out later was…

I guess I've been doing it less time than I'd assumed. We'd fiddled with the weight lifting in the past, but these are the dates I've done it since we got back to it: June 12, 2014 June 14, 2014 June 17, 2014 June 20, 2014 June 26, 2014 July 3, 2014 July 8, 2014 July 15, 2014

Hey folks! Yes, my numbers are low. I'm working on that. Here is what I/we use. http://www.academy.com/shop/pdp/cap-barbell-160-lb-boxed-weight-set/pid-127305?N=117009183 It's a 12lb barbell, and I add the other weights to the end to get my total number. ETA: It's not an Olympic bar. I/we do these workouts in my living…

Bump

:wink:

Also: Do hang in there. We don't need to talk about how many times I completely lost my *kitten* when the scale wasn't showing progress after long periods of time. I was exercising, I was hungry, I was hangry, I was doing it all right, but there was no budging from the scale. Oh, it fluctuated up and down, but nothing…

I've been stuck at the same weight since January, but in that time, I went down from a 16, to a 14, to a 12. Sometimes the scale is just a lying sack of *kitten*.

I was adopted out as a baby. In June of 2012, I got to meet my biological Aunts for the very first time. Everyone was floored, amazed, shocked at how me and a certain aunty looked the same, acted the same, gestured the same, same face, same laugh, EVERYTHING. The only difference was, even with me being at 245lb at the…
