If I'm down on all fours scrubbing a tile floor and cleaning grout with a brush, I log it. So, heavy cleaning, yes. Otherwise no. Lifting boxes full of stuff and moving them, log that. Filling the box up, no.

I don't date. Nothing good ever comes of it anyway.

Space bags? Shrink those suckers down and box them up.

This. I had to make up my mind that I was going to lose weight. No more rationalizing, no more self delusion. It's part of being "selfish" and putting me first. NO more punishing my body by withholding food by skipping meals, if I'm too tired to exercise, I don't. I take a nap or I go to bed early. I don't tell anyone else…

I have chronic Achilles tendinitis due to my gait. When it flares up, I just have to work around it. Recumbent cycling doesn't tend to aggravate it too much, but the only time it doesn't hurt is in the pool. Agreed with allshebe.

You will pry it from my cold dead fingers! AKA more for me! :)

I don't think I could run even if something with sharp teeth were chasing me. I'm still losing. Eat wisely, watch the sodium intake, and move. I walk everywhere.

I'll just follow you around and agree in a non-creepylike fashion.

What you said.

Macaroni cheese. Just disgusting!

Oh, I went over, but that's OK. Right back at it again today. Will drink lots of water. It's a marathon, not a sprint.

Lemon juice and black pepper. My mother turned me onto that years ago.

When I want a hot dog, I go for the real thing. The beef angus ones are good. I'll give those Applegate ones a try if I can find them.

Amen, sir!

Seconded.

He's already married. Sorry.

This. IT band pain is a nagging one for those of us who pronate when we walk. I wear New Balance shoes with the Rollbar to help with pronation. (those suckers oughta pay me!)

I've cut back, but I consume diet soda as a caffeine delivery vehicle for the public good. I'm not fun to be around uncaffeinated and my stomach doesn't tolerate coffee often.

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!

Once a week or 10 days. There is a scale in the gym and I use that as I don't own one and don't want to.
-
What you said. That still makes me mad.
-
Not give up on this process. Today I put on a pair of jeans that I was going to donate exactly one month ago.

If you hit him right in the Magic Beans, he'll be withholding better than a tax accountant for a LONG time.

Bless you. This made me laugh so hard. Can I count that in my exercise points? Jimmy John's today, and the bread was so salty I almost couldn't eat it. Almost. :)

Honey allergy here too! I HATE IT. That poison is in everything it seems. Want to go whole grain? Good luck finding anything that doesn't have the Evil Bee Puke in it. Also allergic to fish, which is easier to work around. I'm sensitive to cantaloupe, but only certain types, but I stay away from it completely just to be…

Talk about a hanging fastball right down the middle of the plate, I'd be taking a Jason Heyward type swing at that opening. I admire your tact and restraint, OP. I can identify. My Dad does this all the time. I just ignore the mean old coot!

PBS. America's Test Kitchen is a great show, even if Chris Kimball is a bit of a twerp. Julia Child taught me to cook on Saturday afternoons. Jeff Smith knew how to cook. You don't want to spend time with the guy (creep) but he knew how to cook. Food Network is a waste now, sadly. All "personalities", no real chefs.

My real life started the day I left that pit. I've gotten smarter, stronger, happier, and will never look back. I do not miss the person I was or those people. 25 years in 53 weeks and every day farther away is a brighter day.

I'm just starting, but I'm in just the same boat. High stress job, sitting all the time, and I eat when tired or bored. Also love the taste of wine! I'm tired of looking and feeling bad. The kick in the pants for me was seeing that number on the scale starting with a 2. I don't care if it's vain, motivation is motivation…

Agreed. Here in Salt Lake, I have a Red Iguana location less than a block from where I live that is very hard to stay out of. The chile colorado is one of my "trigger foods". There is NOTHING on that menu that fits into your macros, though.
