I'm sorry man, being a failure sucks. There is no hope man, even if you get back on the wagon you will probably fall off again. Especially since a single bite of pancake gets you so emotionally wrecked... imagine what would have happened if you had 2 bites? I can't even fathom the terror.

It's the worst when a guy is typing "hon" to a female.

All my clothes are getting too big, so I bought a new pair of jeans. 34 inch waist! I haven't been a 34 since high school! (Was 40 inch waist at my heaviest)!

I'm sorry you had to hear it, but hopefully you can make a healthy change in your life and grow from this experience. I'm glad he was honest with you, but it just sucks that he had to wait 2 1/2 years to realize this. Granted better he tells you now than after 10 years of marriage and a few kids. If he really loved you he…

Stretch after your workouts. Drink plenty of water. People say glutamine helps speed up recovery, but I don't use it. Personally, I'd tell you that you are simply going to have to endure the pain. It will be worst at the very beginning but it will get better each week. Within 3 weeks of working out regularly your body…

Doing great! Keep it up!

I bake brownies, take a portion of them, roll them into tight little balls, and fill the center with homemade peanut butter and honey, then I coat them in melted milk chocolate and let them cool in the fridge. Later on, they are about the size of bon bons and they are absolutely amazingly good! And every single time I make…

Wow you look great!

I shave my face twice a week. I trim my armpit hair, (My wife requests it, she thinks it's too long) I used to shave my chest but my wife didn't like it so now I don't anymore. I trim the crotchial region as needed. I'd consider getting my *kitten* waxed, I bet that'd feel strange.

I'm not even joking I just always thought that if you toats bread it changes the bread and it might have a different caloric content

It's probably water retention. I tend to gain alot of weight (3-4 pounds) on days where I take in saltier foods and retain more of my water. (Granted I drink about a gallon a day).

Just go cold turkey and drink plain water, and ONLY plain water. It will be hard the first day, but after a week you'll start getting used to it, and after a month you'll be MUCH healthier and you will look back at your old self and laugh. Don't drink gatorade, iced tea, vitamin water, coke zero, or any crap like that.…

I"ve had the meat-free bowls before and it's pretty amazing. Granted if you like meat then it's a good choice for meat, but if you are looking to restrict your meat intake this is one amazing meal.

Congrats!

Very nice! You are looking great!

Amazing! What a great transformation! You are awesome!

To the OP - Does logging your food on MFP really take that much time? Really? The beauty of MFP isn't just counting calories, but it's also about the ACCOUNTABILITY to yourself. Personally, I just passed 105 days of continued logins, and I'll try to keep doing it every day, because it's become a part of my life now, and…

They really are very tasty! Today I had a Vegan meal for lunch. It was Mayan Harvest Bake by Kashi and had plantains and stuff in it, honestly one of the best lunches I've ever had! And that is Vegan so limiting what you eat even more. If you are only looking at vegetarian stuff you have so many more options. Many of my…

Thanks for all the tips and websites guys! And Also thanks for the term "Flexitarian". I may not use that label all the time, but it helps to know what it means and might more easily convey to someone else what I'm talking about. And to whoever says that "Meat is Murder is Bull****" - would you care to actually discuss…

Well as for right now I'm not going vegetarian, just eating many vegetarian meals. I think that morally I'm ok with consuming animal flesh, so long as it's rare. If everyone who eats meat, limited it to only once a week for example, then we wouldn't have such a problem with this massive industry treating animals so poorly.…

And for anyone who is full blown Vegetarian or Vegan - Does it get ackward if you are invited to some kind of social gathering that involves food? IE Someone invites you over for dinner, or company Christmas Party or something?

Even fish? I love me some sushi! And most places don't have very many veggy-options with sushi. I'm considering getting one of those kist to make my own sushi though, because there's so many options on stuff to use!

I also recently started running - and it was after many years of not running. One bit of advice that i'd give you is to not push yourself too hard or too fast. I was trying to run faster than I was ready for, and ended up hurting my knees, which kept me from running for nearly 3 weeks. Now I"m building up, but I run a…

Awesome job man! You look great and doing it for your kids is the best reason ever!

I weigh myself every day also, but I don't do it until around 11 AM, right before I workout. My weight used to fluctuate like crazy, like 4 pounds change sometimes from day to day. Turns out I think it was because of water weight. I drink a ton of water and it can have a huge impact on weight. So what I've done is I…

Thanks all! You guys are so helpful!
