So awesome!! You've done a great job!

Eat cake. Log cake. If under goal: Celebrate! If over goal: Do jumping jacks until under goal. Repeat if necessary.

Is it really? I thought it was just a book for women to read in between their soaps.

Okay, Let's do this!

Hey everyone! I'm also living in Utah and I'd love some local-ish friends here. Feel free to add me.

Hershel? What happens to Hershel?! Lol Also sending that fr yo.

29? This is hard! Lol

I've heard selling your eggs makes good money. Also there's plasma you can sell. Or maybe try slinging crack.

My advice is to just do something. Right now the little things don't really matter too much. You just need to get the snowball rolling in the right direction and it will pick up momentum. I'd recommend setting your goal at about 1lb a week and i like to use part diet and exercise to get my calorie deficit.

Um.... bump!

I'm in for unfriendly friends. Lol.

Delicious!

If I eat only these things will I be set? I think I'm over thinking things. I think.

...lot of taco bell. I've been craving it for days and guess what my wife got for dinner... lol. No willpower here!

I need a garage!

Just for perspective, I've lost 35lbs since July and I eat waaaaay more than 500 net calories a day. Just guessing here, but if you're 240 I would bet you should eat around 2000 a day and burn 500 or so. But yes, please eat way more.

Lol. Guess not? I'm curious about them too. They're expensive so it would be nice to hear some unpaid testimonials and opinions if there are any out there.

The amount of protein in each scoop differs greatly from brand to brand. You shouldn't worry about scoops as much as you should worry about grams of protein. My current powder is 30g per scoop. The brand I used before was 16g. Also,depending on my day I may only go with a partial scoop. So figure out how much protein you…

If you do a google search of "intermittent fasting" I think you'll get some helpful information. It's kind of the cool kid thing to do right now to limit your good intake to a 6hr period or so. It sounds like that's what you'd like to do so intermittent fasting (IF) might be perfect for you.

Been using mfp for a few years off and on and had no idea what most of these things meant.

This is incredibly stressful!! You are trying to change your life for the better and a person you thought was your "better half" seems to be weighing you down. The only thin I will say is don't throw the baby out with the bath water. Maybe from now on you cook your own food. If he gets butt hurt about that then oh well. He…

This. Being a Christian gives a person certain beliefs and views. A Christian wanting to have Christian friends makes as much sense as one of those weird Doctor Who fans wanting to be friends with other weird Doctor Who Fans. Don't give someone crap because they are religious and you aren't.

Oh this is good advice.

A well diversified investment portfolio, a reliable vehicle, and a nice sturdy pair of shoes.

You need that positivity snowball to keep rolling and getting bigger. Make sure you recognize your successes. Even if it's just not eating that 5th slice of pizza. You can do this!

Make that a double! I totally agree. I only wish someone would've explained nutrition to me earlier. I kind of blame my parents for that. I think educating children on nutrition (and most everything else) should be a parent's job.

Isn't a headstand a strength exercise? Yes your heartrate does increase with strength exercises but I wouldn't think it would be enough to even worry about. I log "strength training" but that's only when I lift for 30+ min. Just my thoughts on it.

Bmi is BS. Right now mine is 40.5 (5'9" 274lbs). At 165lbs I would be just barely "normal". That's just too skinny for me IMHO

Ha! awesome.
