  • Congratulations, it is a good feeling isn't it? I'm in a similar boat, started Feb 1st, and down close to 60 now. If enough of us lose like this, we can hopefully inspire others that are on the fence to get healthy too. I'm still wearing my size 44 pants, and i had to make a new hole on my belt. It's a great motivational…
  • Cheating here and there will not end your world, cheating every day will. Allow room for cheat meals, not days. Also a trick I picked up, if you are absolutely craving something bad, take 1 or 2 small bites for the flavor. Then wait 5 minutes. You will notice the desire has become smaller.

As far as endurance with running, there is an improvement but it's still quite hard. To be fair, back when i skated for 8 hours a day I was never a distance runner.…
  • I'm not very wise, just as dumb as the rest of them. I fully understand that everyone knows nothing until at least 30. I just heard the warning calls and went to action. As much as it's for my health, it's also so I can continue to eat chicken fingers into old age. I figured if I go nuts on food now, sure I'll have a great…
  • Thank you kindly, that is why I came here, to make some friends that will understand what I'm going through or how hard I'm working. At the end of the day it is for me, but all my friends and family just don't seem honest to me. Not because they are liars in any way, but they all love me prior to losing the weight, so I…
