This question is a success story?

Very nice job. Out of curiosity, how much weight are you lifting in that pic? How long have you been lifting? (I ask because I'm a 35 year-old (male) desk jockey, and I just started lifting because I'm way weaker than I think I should be. I started low and I just got to 90lbs for the overhead press, and it looks like…

I just started yesterday, and did all of level 1 without pausing. I had no problem with most of the exercises, but I couldn't complete the bicep curl/side lunge with 15 pounds. I'll have to pick up something lighter for that exercise. /35 year old guy, about 157 pounds.

Nice job. I started MFP three days after you, and have lost only half as much.

*looks at profile pic; sees "107 posts"... Anyways, nice job. :)

His abs melted right off!

Non-scale victory, right? /Serious question, because I've seen a lot of people write none-scale victory.

Exactly. The other day my wife made chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, so I wasted half of my calories and 80% of my fat on breakfast. She made a decent dinner, but I ate nothing but a full bag of steamed veggies so I could come in at goal. Freaking sacrifice.

My wife would be more supportive, but she's a few months pregnant. When I tell her I lost a pound or something, I get the "I don't want to hear it" look. She is happy that I'm getting my muscles back that disappeared when I got a desk job. Another bad side effect is that she often wants Dairy Queen or something, and I'm…

I've only been counting calories and really trying to lose weight for a few weeks. I weigh myself almost daily. I find it motivates me to eat better and to workout, and it keeps me on track when I underestimate meals but think I'm doing OK.

They don't "push" the cheese and sauces. I'm in Subway every week or two, and I just say no to sauce, and sometimes to cheese. They never ask twice or tell me I should really have some. In fact, they're probably happy that they just saved a few cents.

My moobs have turned into pecs, but my gut is still hanging around. I guess I'm the opposite.

I don't know if it was on purpose, but due to the editing this image looks like the white female running turns into a black dude.

I've lost about 3 pounds in the past week (3.4 pounds in 8 days) since joining mfp and tracking this stuff. At 168 pounds, it will take 56 weeks. 9/19/2013 or so.

Stop doing the first, change what you do for the second, and the third won't be a problem. I used to go to the bar every week with my brother and some friends. I'd spend $15-$25 just for a few hundred calories and a bunch of sugar (I usually drink coke+rum or whiskey). Often I'd grab an appetizer or something too. Just…
