LET'S GO RED WINGS!!!

I started on March 8 2011 at 344. As of April 8 2012 I'm sitting at 255.8. My goal is shopping in "Mens" instead of "Big Mens" departments. I've slowed a bit due to some personal life issues, but once I can refocus my will power I should be back on track.

Thanks everyone for the awesome suggestions!!!

BUMP!!!

My wife and I really like this: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ellie-krieger/balsamic-chicken-with-baby-spinach-recipe/index.html

VOLTRON FTW!!!

Bumping for later to add pic of my little buddy Phil. He's a man's cat; watches football and hockey... lays on the couch all the time.

Bump for later :-)

I'd like to try this specifically. What amounts of each do you use? Thanks!!

Vodka, diet tonic, lime. The calories are only coming from the vodka and the wedge of lime in each drink. This is a staple of mine for "bar night". Congrats and enjoy!!!

It helps by saving time looking at all the products. For example... I picked out what I thought was a "good" jelly, scanned it with the app, and found out a product two items over was actually better. I find it's a time saver... and I like the products it grades as better. :-D

BUMP!!

I feel off during the holidays as well. I weighed myself and it wasn't pretty. So I'm just putting it behind me; it's life and that is going to happen around the holidays. This is a new year (and day) so I'm starting right back where I started. To be honest I thought it was going to be hard but my brain just dropped back…

Lot of great advice here. Bumping so someone else can benefit as well :-)

I've been collecting a lot of stuff from the recipes forum; I'll post some up later tonight when I'm not at work.

Here's my weigh in... Starting Weight: 265.0 Dec. 02: 266.6 Dec. 09: 263.2 Dec. 16: 267.2 Work potluck and "unofficial" Christmas party on Thursday really messed me up. I'd like to say it was all the sodium, but that's yet to be proved. I'll be hitting the gym extra hard this week.

I use it. Really great app!!

Bump; I need some of these ideas myself :-D

@Dave: Congrats to you and your wife. Glad to hear mother and son are doing well. Here's my weigh in... Starting Weight: 265.0 Dec. 02: 266.6 Dec. 09: 263.2 Going up last week made me angry; so I took out that anger in the gym. Started doing laps on the track (1/8 mile each lap) with 15 squats in between. I've only been…

I got a digital one from Target for about $25. It's about an inch tall; very slim and I keep it on it's side against the side of my cupboard. It can weight up to 11lbs, and will weigh in grams or ounces. It has a glass surface so I put on a bowl, zero it out, and weigh... or put on a piece of wax paper, zero it out, and…

Thanks!! I'm trying not to get busted up by what the scale says; if I wasn't so scientific I'd swear it lies 80% of the time. I was trying the lb a week goal, but I think I'll just set mini food/exercise goals and let that "effect the bottom line" so to speak. You are right; we all will do this!!!! :-D

bump for after work; when I can get my slide rule out and crunch the numbers.

Sorry this is so late, but here we go... My name is Joe. I work as a software engineer which keeps me at a keyboard ALOT. My two biggest motivations for losing weight are my dad and my wife. My dad had a serious heart attack just before Christmas in 09 I realized I didn't want my wife to sit next to my bed worrying like my…

bump!!

These look AMAZING!!! Thanks!!

The mint chocolate chip ice cream gum is AWESOME!!!

High protein after a workout is a good idea. Burns long (feel full) and is needed for muscle repair. I sure you knew both things, but I'm a science guy so I like to point out the science whenever possible! I had a thing typed out here for after workout consumption, but the BodyBuilding.com site had a much better scientific…
