Real fan of Dave's Private Reserve... If you haven't had it you don't know heat... I can gargle with pepper spray after getting use to the pinnacle of Dave's Insanity.

Sounds like you are making the right first choices. I've been at this seven months now and have gone from prediabetic to normal, blood pressure 145/95 to 122/82, pulse rate from 92 to 64 and weight from 425 to 297. Anyone is welcome to add me my food diary is open to friends. I eat very little preprocessed food and fast…

Eat at TDEE for two or three weeks to determine that is TDEE sounds as if you are there... then kick the workouts up to more workout to get to where you want to be.

You say that you have a total of about ten pounds left to go... These are the toughest pounds to lose. Don't focus so much on a scale number but on altering body composition and your overall health. Look to diminish your body fat percentage and getting blood pressure, pulse rate, respiratory rate down making your body more…

Way to find something you can do... Another idea for those who can't get out would be to get or make a step to put in front of the tv. Just simply step up and down while watching. Simple and cheaper than a gym membership. Anyone is welcome to add me.

I don't log anything as water that isn't strictly water but to each there own. Vitawater, homemade smoothies and low sodium V8 are the only other things I drink and I log those under food items... I don't see anything wrong with logging it as water intake, but I choose not to. As it is I get at least 16 cups of plain water…

People work... MFP is a tool to help you toward success. If you simply expect anything to work for you its not going to happen. On the other hand if you apply yourself and use MFP to track the changes you make you will find yourself making measurable changes that will give you measurable results. I've dropped 128 pounds in…

Three options: 1 - Move out... Not the best choice in your circumstance but you would be able to control what you eat. 2 - Fix your own meals... Plan and do your own then when the delivery shows up go for a run. 3 - Have a salad of just greens under 100 calories including all toppings drink water and when it shows up eat a…

I burn well over 500 additional exercise calories everyday and I don't consume back extra calories. I've dropped 128 in seven months. I actually have had a week where I purposely had negative calories for the week. Burned more through workout than I consumed and I did not eat back my calories. It takes time to burn those…

The Burger King Wraps on Tuesday actually had 1060 mg of sodium each that some misguided person neglected to post on MFP nutritional facts. That is over 2000mg that you had not tracked... Watch out for prepackaged foods like Lean Cuisine and restaurant/fast food they are always higher in sodium than what you need. 2500mg…

Anyone is welcome to add me... I'm here almost everyday and I've been pretty successful. 127 pounds in seven months... I don't have all the answers, but I have found some things that have made a difference and finding more all the time.

I watch my macro ratio, calorie total, exercise, fiber, sodium and most other micronutrients.... I am really interested in total health and have watched my blood pressure go from 145/95 to 122/82 and pulse rate go from 92 to 64. These numbers are every bit as important to me as that one on the scale.

Did weight watchers and lost a lot of weight years ago and gained it all back twice! Plus additional pounds as well... I have lost more here and the best part of it is that I don't pay and there is no plan... I just simply track and lose! Lots of people to chat with about good ideas and no meetings!

If this is all the weight that you have to lose then 20 pounds in six weeks is going to be very difficult. First, put down that you want to lose 2 pounds per week on here and stick to that as your total number of calories. Second, burn the fat off through countless hours of workouts. Insanity three times per day and a run…

At your current weight I would suggest that you focus on one pound per week and through exercise perhaps drop a bit more than that amount of weight. If you want to lose significantly more in that amount of time it will require far greater levels of physical exertion and lowering the caloric intake to a level where your…

There is a natural, equitable distribution of work in any healthy relationship and there is a natural inequality when an unhealthy relationship exists. In my home, I cook. I am very good at it and I am also home first from work. I also leave first in the morning and cook breakfast as well. My wife does the dishes. If they…

Not too bad... Not to good... If you really crave some chocolate I guess its ok especially with a nice little boost of fiber. Better sources out there for both though.
