  • Prior to weight loss journey I often skipped breakfast and only had coffee. I had energy so I didn’t think anything of it. But now that I switched to a rather regimented plan (Atkins 20) I have breakfast, lunch, and dinner and two planned snacks. I don’t think evening or morning calories are magical but I do notice that…

  • Just piping in that I had never read the book or seen the show and LOVED this challenge. It was a nice break from scale watching but really boosted my activity, strength, and flexibility. If you’re on the fence, try it!

  • Overall, a good hike is about hiking. What I mean is that it makes much more sense to get some hikes, backpacking trips, and campouts in between now and your big Colorado hike than to spend that time, effort, and money optimizing your gear setup. There's lots of places to go in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas for weekend…

  • We are a family of backpackers who also go to Colorado for trips. We do a two outfit method. One set of clothes (shirt, bottoms, socks, undies) for day and a second set to keep dry and put on at night to avoid hypothermia. Depending on how high you go, you may well encounter snow and ice In the mountains. Add in some…

  • I think that most people look much younger overall when they lose weight. If you have a few extra wrinkles, I think it is more than cancelled out by the overall appearance of youth that a healthier weight brings.

  • Sounds like you've made your decision, but I thought I'd add one thing from my experience with whole 30. I've found that food restrictive diets (Whole 30, Primal/Paleo, etc.) really do a number on me psychologically. I start out like gangbusters and think that just because I don't accept all the woo, it won't harm me. But…

  • I get this too. In my case, I wonder if some of it isn't that at some stages of weight loss I do look a bit worse. I go from plump to melted candle. Then things seem to tighten up a bit. Then melted candle again. I'd still rather be fit and healthy though.
