You're too skinny.

They are playing euro dance trash music at the gym now...DAFUQ?! That crap is worse than A$AP rocky and Kendrick Lamar, but at least that stuff had decent beats. I hate this crap worse than country music.

Good topic...ima go fix my 4th big *kitten* cup of coffee of the day. nothing like a little coffee before bed...decaff this time!

I haven't logged in every day since I joined, but I have logged in regularly. For a lot of people the realization that you can't eat McDondalds whenever you feel like it is a deal breaker.

Farts are cool.:smile:

PREACH IT MY BROTHA... Tracking what I eat is one of the best thing I've ever done. How can you expect the changes to last a lifetime, if you are eating in a way you can keep up for the rest of your life?

Log every single thing you eat, record all of it, even if it's difficult to do so. If this won't change your habits, nothing will. I used to eat when i was hungry, or thought I was hungry, but after 18/19 months in the struggle, I don't eat out of boredom anymore...I feel I have control now, at least more so, than i used…

The only downside was that at first I was cold all the time...I probably had the heater in the car on 3 or 4 times a year two years ago, now it's on every morning. I still think the air is Nippy, and I live in LA. It's funny you mention women at work...several women asked me the "secret"...what's the secret??? What are you…

Women value a fat wallet more so than appearance.

Go buck naked with some good tennis shoes.

I am slowly replacing my stuff. I get plenty of wisecracks about looking like a bum...I still have my old belt, but i had to punch more holes in it, ha ha.

I have been using the elliptical for over a year, with good results. i do a program where it goes low for 2 minutes, than hard for two minutes. i usually have the hard setting on "10" which is a little difficult for me, and the light setting on "7" or " "8", and I repeat and repeat and repeat for 30-60 minutes until I burn…

Put some sugah- free sizurp on that. By the way....I put plain old white refined sugar in my coffee..Anything in moderation is fine...my ticker don't lie.

GD french fries....RGGGHHWHAHHAHAHHARERRRRRRRRR

DAMN DUDe...post a warning or something.

This ain't right.

SEE A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY.

At my biggest, i couldn't find 44 inch waist pants, with a short enough leg to fit me. As of today, I fit size 34 pants very comfortably, and i can find the length I need on the shelf. I'm 5' 11". I feel weird buying such small pants...I was used to buying big baggy pants to hide my big *kitten*...

DON'T DO IT!!!! Be patient, change your eating and exercise habits, and be patient, and you can change for life. The lap band is a crutch.

LOLZ:laugh:

No

I stopped eating garbage, tracking the good stuff I ate, and exercising like a mad man....

Take an assessment after a month, see what sort of progress you've made, and then you can determine if it works for you or not.

I think you could do it, but whether you could maintain the weight loss, might be a different story. i have strived for one lb a week, and it seems to be very doable, without seeming like punishment.

Stop beating yourself up...you've been through a lot. Take tiny, itty, bitty steps towards your goals. Make small changes you can live with, and don't do silly things like starve yourself. try to walk a tiny little bit further each day, clean up your diet tiny bit by bit. Making long lasting changes will probably take…

Hey...Lot's of us have been in the same boat. In August of 2011 when i was desperate to start changing my life...All I knew is that the scale was still moving up at 250lbs, when I jumped off (I'm 5' 11"). I didnt get back on the scale for six months when I was 238.5lbs...I wish I had accurately weighed myself, to know…

It was rigged. My baby Alex should have won.

Take baby steps. Rome wasn't built in a day.

Yes man...it's absolutely the best thing I've ever done.

I believe in today's language they are called "haters". People ask if you have cancer, or if you are sick, blah blah blah...Open up any picture of any get together in 1978, and you won't see any fat people. Go anywhere in public (Walmart is good)...and just keep a mental note of the overweight people...the paradigm has…
