  • I use Orgain Vanilla w/ unsweetened almond milk and two scoops of PBfit and it's almost unfair how delicious it is. Like a peanut butter shake (if you, of course, enjoy peanut butter). I also use Orgain Chocolate w/ PBfit and that's excellent as well. I don't work for Orgain or anything... I simply enjoy their shakes the…
  • Standing for 60 seconds in a Walmart bathroom. Also, water and nuts. I've been drinking a gallon of water per day and eating small amounts of macadamia nuts when I feel like I'm getting (or going to get) hungry and it satiates until the next meal. A banana for snack, or an apple, helps as well - seems generic but really…

  • Congratulations on Day 76! I quit just almost 2 years ago after 6 years of smoking. Cold turkey, never looked back. Packed on some pounds since so looking to get down to 190 or so. Good job on the gym and eats... I've eaten (relatively) clean for the past week and it's been incredible. Plus a gallon of water per day...…
  • Back at it and the more the better!
  • Then let's get at it! :). Welcome!
  • Great to see you're back at it! I'm on my way to drop 30 then maintain and am pretty active daily on here! Always great to get new Friends on here and get a ton of support/motivation! Cheers!
  • The more the merrier! (I just made that up) Add away!
  • Hey there... I'm 42 and have red hair as well... that gets me clout huh? :) Anyhow, before I tell you what I think you should do, or try, can you tell us what you currently are doing? Both with food and exercise? I plateaued a few times and had to mix it up, but no doubt you can fire the losing back up quick-like with just…

  • I read this and was about to respond accordingly but read your reply Tiffany and laughed a bit - I fell into the same trap, so to speak... but I guess a year-later reply is better than none at all, right? :smiley:
  • I've a desk job too... I drink a lot of water and liquid through the day which forces me to get up and head to the can... and I take the long way to get more steps in... and usually go a couple floors up to add some burn to the legs. I don't do the gym thing due to life stuff, but dedicate 30 minutes per day for me and my…
  • Yes, welcome back! Impressive that you've made it half way... oh, and drop the "Maybe" from your statement :smiley: This time it WILL stick! I've 30 left to drop and I will not be denied... and neither shall you!
  • Hey there - I just started Focus T25 and well on my way to shedding the 30 pounds that I'm tired of carrying around... I dig hiking, PC gaming and contemplating life and how awesome it is :) I'm on my 280+ day MFP streak so pretty active on here... Cheers!
  • I'm a native San Diegan (and still not sure if that's how you spell 'Diegan'), been on MFP for ~3.5 year and have gone from 180 to 210 to 224 to 190 to 224 again... and now down to 220. Doing T25 and hope to start hiking regularly again (San Diego has some great hiking spots... well, for San Diego anyway) :)
  • No other takers? Sheesh... too bad... folks don't know what they're missing.
  • Wow - congratulations! That's impressive... Losing that much via diet alone is cool... imagine how you'll do once you start exercising! Brisk walks are a great start... I started Focus T25 today (after months of sporadic yoga and trying to pick a program that I wanted to tackle first) I plan to go 60 days of T25, and add…
  • I'm starting it on Aug 15th as well!
  • I've seen it three times thus far and love it more and more each showing. Rey's character was phenomenal (agree with avoiding her having a love interest - I'd be happy if she stayed single the entire series, personally). I figured Han was going to die in this movie... even so my mouth was still agape when it happened.…
  • Same. Here. Lost 35 pounds 2 years ago, gained it all back in, ironically, two years :wink: I'm looking to shed 40lbs this time and concentrate/plan on the end-game maintenance more intensely... not just the journey to get there.
  • I'm in the same boat as you... "Lose weight to feel healthier" does very little to motivate me... I wouldn't be worried, though, because it's simply a matter of 'different strokes for different folks'. My motivation is to be able to fit in my clothes and not have a gut (it isn't huge, but it sure isn't a 6-pack either).…
  • I'm in the middle of Dragon Age: Last Flight. Next up is more Drizzt books. Lots to look forward to :smile:
  • Feel free to add me... I'm a geek... at least that's what folks callme as I dust my Boba Fett collection. Geeks and fitness go hand in pale hand.
  • I've done that same thing about 1, 2, maybe 10 times :) Like you I'm back at it now... driving towards 190!
  • I'm currently ~220 and am gunning for 185... 190 but only if it's muscle weight :)
  • World War Z and Dragon Age: The Masked Empire - need to dig into some more Drizzt books next...
  • Welcome! And I couldn't agree more with Martin. It's the right place to be to get support and info to meet, and maintain, your goals! You absolutely, without a doubt, can do it :)
  • I'm going to be hiking more and more starting, oh, yesterday in prep for my annual Mt. Whitney hike. I try to mix up the trails but end up doing a ton of Mission Trails (closest to me). Hoping to get down to 190 again (or around there). San Diego seems to have missed the winter season... 80 in February? Nuts!
  • I'm currently playing Deadfall Adventures, Skyrim (as always) and Far Cry 4. I'm starting to prep now for Witcher 3 and Pillars of Eternity :smiley: Contemplating Planescape: Torment... Fallout 4 - be still my heart!
  • Geek since birth. Star Wars, Boba Fett, Dragon Age, Myst, Mass Effect, Drizzt, Gordon Freeman, Cosmos, RPGs, SDCC, The Walking Dead, Robocop, low-budget 80s/90s movies, Batman... Always on and post sporadically, but encourage as much as possible. Hiking is my activity of choice as I like to balance the real, natural world…
  • Without a doubt: Dragon Age: Inquisition Taking a few days of PTO for it :)
  • I'm going and was hoping to dress up but don't have the time. My kids are though - my boy is Robin and my daughter is Raven :) Not sure if the panels have been posted yet...?? Looking forward to it as it's been a few years since my last CC. I was fortunate enough to get the entire week incl. preview night - so stoked!
