God. I am speechless at the support. Just wow. "Thank you" doesnt cut it. I will not give up. Though i am unhappy with my naked body, this tshirt has never looked better on me. Theres no way i could have even word this back in july. THANK YOU all. Feel free to add me. I adore you ladies and offer a heart high-five to the…

Oh. and Sandpoint is about my favourite place on earth. BEAUTIFUL there. My boss is from Cour D' Alene. I lived in Spokane for awhile :)

On my hour ride, I burned about 300 if I recall. really hurts to do that. Will have to keep rowing. But what causes pessimism is this: I am still eating a what 'should' be a good calorie deficit. Will keep at it. Who knows? The way my weight goes I might lose 8lbs in the next week and a half. Thank you for your help -…

My sister is in Noyabrsk. Surgut. After 30 minutes on a bike, doing up to 15km at times, I burn about 200 calories, tops, according to my gym's machines. If I crank up the resistance my knees essentially stop working.

Right - but in the end it's all and only about burning calories. Say I burn an extra 100 calories from an hour on the bike. I would have burned those calories anyway eventually, right? Small world :)

well - i've read lots of OTHER research showing lots of cardio, say, does not appreciably "burn fat". I'm trapped to really rowing - that works for me; and stationary bike. Because there's the problem with my knees. I can't 'squat' or climb stairs, or jump. Anything that puts pressure along my knee caps feels like i'm…

Thank you 50. I'll dig into it. what's killing me is this - Why things gotta be so f'ing complicated? Right? (sigh). Always a plan or technique or 'science' - I'd give anything if it were as simple as 'stop eating so damn much'. :( Rant = over.

refeed?

made the diary public. I never eat-back my calories.

it's accurate within probably 5%. I over-estimate intake by rounding-up portion sizes and under-estimate burn during work outs. my diary should be open. I'll check it. I don't log veggies, as most of my chicken is eaten atop about a cup of mixed greens. I don't log 1-3x servings of coffee creamer almost daily. I am doing…

hey, thank you very much for that. I know, I know. I'm - today anyway - so f'ing TIRED of having to logically convince myself good things are happening. Instead of trying to see the bright side or trying to talk-myself-into feeling good about the progress, I want to be sexy like...now. I want to be smacked in the face with…

Terrific job!!!

geesh. Unreal transformation. Inspirational as all heck. Thank you!

I am stunned. WOW. First 'How YOU doin'??' - then "Beyond excited for you - and proud of you for getting control of your body. Just fantastic!!"

Dude you are doing SO WELL! Congrats to you! You got this!!

This pic - taken this morning - is my most-recent NSV Yes, the angles are favorable...but it's still me. Seeing my upper body begin to take shape is encouraging as all heck. I have 25-30lbs of fat left...then things get real :) Heaviest: 262lbs SW: 248lbs CW 223.x lbs. GW: 185 Am 6' 1/2" for reference.

First off: "How YOU doin???" Then....SO PROUD of you - you look great! Nice work!

@rn_sue - hey - do you make them for $$? :) please? Name the price? Please?? would mean the world to somebody I dearly love.

well thank you! :)

Your progress IS perfection. GREAT work!!

Holy sht. I mean. really. HOLY sht. Stunning. So proud of you.

We are responsible for our happiness. Weight loss is not 'making me happy' - because the root of my happiness is how I adapt my thoughts. Now, not-being such a fatty mcfatster doesn't make me happy but it removes from me one possible area to cause angst. I am to the point where I could probably go home with a chick,…

GREAT job!! Wow! Be proud and keep at it!!

inspirational as all get-out. GREAT work!!!

GREAT WORK!!

keep embarrassing yourself for the sake of your health. The process is the victory.

Amy you're a doll! Love this post! You're doing GREAT!

Holy hell dude - you are KILLIN it. GREAT GREAT JOB!!!

I love that, but that never really works. I don't want to be the only one who thinks I'm sexy - make sense? I'm tired of telling myself how good I am. I got it. I believe it. Now I'm ready to move on - hence the work. :) <3 you.

you're doing great!
