Totally motivating! Well done!

Double your water intake for few days. I jumped up 3 pounds a day after eating takeout pizza 1 time. I upped my water intake and within a couple days had flushed it all out.

Thanks for a lot of great suggestions! I know my playlist is about to get a lot bigger :)

Here are some good ones: Ratatat The Tron Reconfigured Soundtrack Remix Disc Bassnectar Deadmau5 Flux Pavillion Rob Dougan

up at 4:45, at the Gym by 5:00. Legs, Abs and a 2 mile run done by 6:00.

It wasn't the first comment, but at about 39-40 pounds lost I had someone ask if I was sick.

It might be worth the trip :)

And where do I find this Mt Olympus of food?

I agree with many people here. Weighing each morning keeps me focused, I have a long way still to go and I want to harness all the drive and focus I can to keep me committed.

Take my kids to the pool this summer and not feel like the dad who 'just gave up' when I take off my shirt.

Because they don't understand what is going on inside you and what your true motivations are. They superimpose their values on your life. Be Awesome and be who YOU want to be.

It's been working pretty well for me for about 2 months. I'm just waiting for the plateau and am ready to make adjustments if I have any adverse side effects. I'm not saying it is the best way to go, but right now, with the exercise routine I'm in and the food I am eating, I seem to be in a sweet spot. It's taken me from…

I'm not saying I'll never eat at DQ or McD again, but at least it makes me think about what I'm eating. Both of them have great web based nutritional fact calculators on their sites to build a meal and find out what you are getting. They even let you take things off 'stock' items. Like you can see what a McChicken is…

Here is a meal I ate more than once at Dairy Queen, 1/2lb Flame Thrower, Large Fry, Large Mt Dew and a Small Brownie Batter Blizzard for dessert. Using their on-site calculator, I get this... So yeah, I hear you all the way.

The whey isolate is $21 a tub, the Whey protein is like $15 a tub.

Looking at some photos of myself last summer I realized I didn't look I thought I looked like. It was time to take matters seriously, so I'm kicking my own tail.

It's not exactly super healthy food, but here is some stuff I cook up for my family of 9. This is my food blog. http://the-awesome-sauce.blogspot.com/
