non scale victory = NSV

Taco Bell ground beef / chicken soft tacos Fresco style..that loses the cheese and adds the pico salsa Wendy's Spicy chicken and I lose the top bun to reduce the cals Subway turkey or meatball on wheat

If I may...I would like to buy the movie rights to this harrowing situation. Have your lawyers speak to my lawyers to negotiate a price. :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

27yrs married. This past Valentines Day was 31yrs together. Last night was a date night together!!

the exception: A popular misconception in fitness and nutrition circles is that it is impossible to build muscle and lose weight -- via a caloric deficit -- simultaneously. While this is not impossible to do, it can be quite difficult and requires several specific circumstances to be in place. First, you must be…

you can strengthen the muscle you already have at a calorie deficit but you will not gain muscle. You can lose fat and strengthen what muscle you currently have. Now that I said this...there is always an exception.

This made me want waffles and ham for breakfast...nom nom nom!! ok waffle, ham, oj, coffee done AND for 483 calories!!! GAWD if only I had skipped breakfast this whole time I could have lost another pound....dammit!!! LOL

I still eat everything I did before but in moderation and with some of the tweaking I wrote about. Taco Bell...order them "fresco" style, this means no cheese and they add the pico salsa instead. I eat three beef soft tacos fresco style for 540cals. Pizza Hut...have the thin crust and the salad bar. Wendy's...lose the top…

I had this over the past weekend...it lasted 4 days. I keep a journal of all my accomplishments and went back and read them ALL but all my brain wanted to tell me was "I sucked at this". As of yesterday(Wednesday) it had passed. These quotes seemed to sum up those four days for me...."Challenge is life's way of making sure…

good job and still rocking hot at 33!!!

i personally scoop them up and stand over the trash can and drop them....but my wife and daughters like to sprinkle Splenda brown sugar on them after they come out of the oven. And they like the sweet potato-tots the best!!

I know exactly what you are saying...Last week I did 3 X 10hr days of construction. By Friday I was hurting so much, but the whole time I had a huge smile on my face. Cause 6months ago I dont think I could have made it thru a single day...let alone 3 days. So "cheers" buddy to our pain and soreness...isnt it grand!!!…

awesome job man!!!

somebody said sexy fireman and MFP automatically inboxed me...huh?!?!?! It's got to be then!! LOL

Hello, your goal seems to be very doable and good luck on your journey to a better you. Feel free to add me. My diary is open and feel free to have a look.

We had ice rescue training this morning and a friend posted pics on his facebook. My wife is looking at them and has one with my back to the camera, she says she didnt recognize me...only the jackets I had on...cause I was one of the skinny guys in the pic. Gonna have to get that girl something nice for Valentines.

I have a loving wife that is continually going out of her way to keep me on track in the journey....thank you Honey...I love you!!

MFP helped me realize how much I was over eating. When I first started tracking, the numbers were shocking to me. In years past I had tried SlimFast shakes and other things but this time I committed to eating my normal food that had been tweaked to a healthier version. MFP caused me to become a label reader and really pay…

awesome job man!!!! That is totally something to be proud about!!!

I would be more inclined to think you were just hungry on that day than the amount of aspartame you had in that single yogurt. Some days our bodies are just hungry...it's telling you something. Weakness, nausea, grumpiness, stomach growling...all signs your body wants a bit more fuel. I am not saying have a blowout and eat…

I would check your height too...I bet you will be shorter. Wait..wait...if you are shorter, wouldnt you weigh less??? I am starting to confuse myself. :ohwell:

tetrahydrocannabinol

I conferred with Smokey and that gorilla is going down!
