Hey can you tell me what you mean by "SAD"?

Myself if I'm not counting it's just chaos. I know this is a symptom of a greater problem but right now if I count, I'm ok. To get off counting I guess I'd have to move to a clean eating style diet because it's easier to get less calories by accident with a diet like that.

Good work!

ALL soda erodes the enamel of your teeth, not just diet soda.

The artificial sweeteners are fine. I drink a lot of Pepsi Max and that's bad because of the caffeine. A little caffeine is fine but I take in waaaay too much of it.

You and me both! The good news is that when I get obsessed there's no stopping me from losing weight. Right now I don't have that obsession. Probably not the best way to live I guess.

At least parallel, deeper if your hips are made for it. How deep someone can go depends on their bone structure. If you're just breaking parallel then you're fine.

Go with what you enjoy. If you enjoy it you'll be more likely to do it. As long as the exercise you choose doesn't injure you I think you it should be fine.

My friend and work boss had it done and he's doing well. He had a scare that required surgery a few months after but it was fine as the doctors spotted it early. I don't like to condone surgery usually but if you're morbidly obese and fixing your psychological problems won't happen before you die of obesity related…

That's nearly 100kg! Phenomenal!

Hun once I went to uni in my white jeans. At the end of the day I came home and took my jeans off. I had poo'd my pants! I was having stomach problems and instead of staying home and getting better I went to uni. HOW MANY PEOPLE must have seen POO ON MY BACK SIDE ALL DAY!?!? Anyway, chin up. You'll lose the weight.

If you know how many calories was in your blow out then you're doing better than me! I find that if I can log it, even if it was the thing that pushed my day over the limit, then I feel a lot better about it. It still slows your progress but at least you have 100% accountability to it. Unlike me who gorges and has no hope…

You are not logging accurately enough or you are eating things that you are not logging.

Mopey guy is mopey.

With all the anti cardio talk going around your post is refreshing and encouraging!

I'm considering just telling people that I have worms

Just keep at it. Just keep the exercise and diet planning as a part of your routine and get on with life. If you don't see progress in 4 weeks then change something. Assess your plan and see what you can do to make it work better.

I drink lots of black coffee and Pepsi Max, more than I should. It's not the fake sugar that's the problem, it's the caffeine. I love caffeine but even I acknowledge that I take way too much of it.

Dude you're handsome! Nice work!

I am declaring that I have no problems with genetically modified foods.

+1 for thinking it's ok. As long as you feel good and you're not starving then I think it'd be fine.

Kangaroo meat is a lean source of protein. So much for protein for so few calories!

As much as I eat everything there are some things that I have to 'plan ahead' before eating them. Doughnuts are one of those things. So when free doughnuts are on offer I too have to fight the 'but it is free' rationalisation. Whenever I am in that frame of mind I try to imagine that the food wasn't offered. What state of…

I'm not a clean eater by philosophy but I find that I end up being a clean eater through choices based on 'calorie density'. If I were to stop counting calories I'd probably do clean eating for 95% of my diet just to control calorie intake. I think the reason people bash clean eating (yes, I have in the past, yesterday…

Big boobs are great but I believe when a woman loses weight the boobs do get smaller but they suit the smaller frame. He shouldn't worry so much.

This thread drove me to eating a whole jar of sugar with a spoon. See you in HELLLL!

Very good advice! Online dating can and does work but you have to be patient and be willing to go on a lot of first dates. There will be a lot of people that aren't looking for what you're looking for let alone the freaks (You will meet a few!) Don't give it up too soon (unless you want to, but don't expect that to turn…

I'm not saying that some foods are not bad for you separate from how much you consume. I know I feel like crap after eating salty popcorn while watching a movie. I'm just saying that there's a trend of worrying about things that don't need to be worried about.
