I've been back more times than I can count. This time feels different fort me though and I have a determination I haven't had before

I didnt log today because it was my son's birthday and there was nibbles out all day. By the end of the day I figured today's a write off so had an iced coffee and a kit kat

ive got a food scale already. also, not logging sucks. i figured today was a lost cause and slipped badly. back to it tomorrow also c25k w1d1 tomorrow

No logging today. For got my son's birthday was all just nibbles and it is just too hard to work out how much of each I have had. I don't think I over did it tho. I really need to get some scales so I can see if I'm making any progress

Hrm, ate a massive dinner tonight but still managed to stay in deficit today thanks to my gardening. however the last few days i have felt smalled, but tonight i dont. probably still bloated from my food. tomorrow is my sons birthday so heres hoping i can pull off a miracle to stay under. may have to skip breakfast and…

Back out on the garden today. This time it is the back yard. My biggest issue is that I don't own a set of scales. I used to use my Wii fit but my wiimote is broken so I can't at the moment. Also if anyone wants to add me to their friends list i will accept any and all

so i logged it as 45 minutes gardening. gave me 299 calories. seems quite high for the amount of time but figured i was out there for a lot longer so its good enough for now.

just spent the late morning and afternoon digging, pulling weeds mowing grass etc and sweated a crap ton. no idea how to log it tho because it was stop start stuff and really sure on time spent actually doing it. i wont worry about logging it but also wont worry too much if i go a little over calories today. having said…

Another day done and another day eating in deficit. A little hungry as I head to bed but I will see if I can ignore it despite the fact I have calories left for today. Will down a big glass of water and are how we go

probably about 3 months every year for the last 6 years. this time im determined that it will be "The time"

thinking about excercise and what to do and i think i might start the c25k again. It is a 3 day a week program and i work from home 3 days a week so that fits pretty well. Will start it next monday as the next couple of days will be spent in the garden getting it ready for my kids birthday on sunday (weeding, sweeping,…

If I had 15 minutes I would have eaten my home made muesli. 3 kids under 9 all have to be ready for school by 8.30 and I never get to bed before 12 with work. Mornings in my house are crazy. When I say I didn't get time I seriously didn't get any time :) Sounds nice tho. I'll give it a go one day.

This morning i had my first iced coffee for the week. however, after watching biggest loser last night they said it was important to sometimes say yes to these cravings, but to do it sensibly. i was running late for work and didnt have time for breakfast but i had to stop to get fuel. but, rather than getting the 600ml…

as a serial starter ive always been one to say im going to start and then i never do. for some reason this time feels different. im back logging on here and have been eating in deficit for the last 3 days. i havent started exercising yet but im just trying to nail the food part first. also, i have my profile set to a…

i have started a new thread that i will be keeping updated as i go. kind of a mini blog but as a forum thread. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10532128/thoughts-observations-and-questions-and-keeping-myself-accountable/p1?new=1

i have mixed feelings about yesterday. I stayed within my calories for the day but i still feel i snacked too much last night..... will see how we go today

i never said bulking was easy, in fact, i actually said it would be hard. what i did say is that it is the opposite to losing. which you would know because you also lose fat when cutting. however, losing fat for you is like going back to your old self. id imagine that if i got enough weight down that i needed to "bulk" i…

sorry mate, but looking at your profile it shows that you have never known what it is like to be overweight and crave crappy food all the time. in fact, you started lifting to gain weight not lose it. im not saying what you do is easy, far from it. putting on that much lean muscle mass would be a hard thing to do, but it…

certainly if you binge all your calories in crappy food you wont be eating much and you will be hungry. but using your spare calories for a slice of pizza or a chocolate bar every now and then is crucial to not falling off the wagon and binging all over again.

Swapped out my morning cappuccino for a macchiato today (shot of coffee and 20ml of milk) so I'd call that a win. Still needed a teaspoon of sugar tho but still better than a massive mug of milk with chocolate powder on top

Yesterday was a better day Mostly good but a couple of little slips. Today I'm logging and have determination. My big vice is iced coffee. But I will get through this week without one and reward myself with a small one on the weekend. I normally get the big ones.

its hard to describe. my mind is definitely the problem, not the body. but there are 2 parts of it. there is the knowing all the theory and the how to's and the what to do's. i know them, ive done it before. ive lost up to 7 kgs on previous attempts. then there is the other part of the mind which is the part that controls…

my wife just bought the maintenance bod excercise and nutrition 12 week program. the food so far has been pretty good (we all eat it as it is easier than prepping different meals for everyone). i was hoping the meals would be in here as i cant be bothered entering the recipes myself :D

the ability to wear short skirts to work when its hot (i dont mean mini skirts, just above the knee). have you ever seen a guy where business shorts to work? it doesnt happen. we have to wear long pants every working day of the year.

I love my 1911 in 9mm. Full size, steel framed stainless finish. Just looks good. I like the single stack mag too. Double stacks are just too thick in the hand. Being in Australia we can't have more than 10 rounds anyway so double stack is pointless.

I just have my Taurus 1911 stainless 9mm. Lightened trigger, fit and finish tightened up by my clubs smith.

You never mentioned what the reasons were tho. you said not health reasons or environmental reasons, tho both are a benefit. im guessing it is for financial reasons.

ive just started doing lite n easy for lunch. today was beef nachos. it was awesome

Adelaideian here. have added all
