Pretty much the idea of someone wanting to get to know me before they judge me, or even maybe assuming good things about me before they know me when they first meet me. as opposed to people automatically assuming i'm lazy, stupid, unconfident, not worth their time before they even speak to me.

When i was in 7th grade someone I had a crush on told me i should wear a bra because I had breasts. Definitely as a guy, having breasts has always been the most humiliating and embarrassing part of being fat.

mine's open.

anyone can add me https://www.fitbit.com/user/2CGRNJ

I aim for 1500, but i usually end up with 1600 - 1800. Anything under 2000 feels like a success to me though.

Sounds like a good plan. You should bookmark this post so you can read it back when you are struggling. Good luck with your journey!

I have a Force and love it. My only caution is for guys, make sure you take it off during your "alone time", or it will give you way too many steps and totally screw up your data for the day.

Good luck pink team, if you don't want my opinion then i'll just shut up and weigh in. Shame on me for wanting a bit of team spirit around here, and noticing the OBVIOUS difference between the teams.

I;ve been stepping forward and saying my peace,m and then i get called names for pointing out the obvious. Not very encouraging. anyways, i check in and weigh in and i'm losing weight, so i'm doing my part. Shame on me for wanting more for our team i guess. I guess i'm a good scape goat though. i don't see you calling out…

LW: 293.4 CW: 288.8 what's with everyone doing that weird copying other people's posts thing? The purple team is being obnoxious, and making this competition less fun. honestly, i don't even know why i bothered to weigh in, you might as well just rename this group the purple team circle jerk.

I think we should elect a team leader for the Pink team. someone to be in charge of motivating us.

Just an observation. I' just saying, they seem to have more team spirit and stuff. personally i prefer just doing mown thing and checking in each week. I'm losing weight, so i'm doing my part for the team.

I'm waiting for monday, that's the official weigh in right? I';m just expecting things to become much more official with official teams, and official weigh in and stuff... I want this to be a real challenge, I want this to be a real compitition, and i want everyone to take it seriously. I don't want this to turn into a…

I ordered a fitbit force a few days ago, it says there's a 1-2 week back order, but i'm really looking forward to getting it. I love gadgets. Does anyone else here use any type of fitness gadgets? if so, which ones, and what is your experience with the, do you recommend them etc?

Are we actually supposed to pick our groups? or will they be assigned?

I'm Alex in California. I've got over 100 pounds to lose, so i really need to lose weight for my health. I think this competition will be good motivation for me, and keep me accountable. I've been over weight since age 8, was morbidly obese by the time i got to high school. When I was 19 I lost all the weight through…

Just a good old fashioned gay man. I would never date someone that needed an entire paragraph to explain their "label".

I agree eggs are fantastic, especially when you are losing weight because they also help to tighten your skin so it will help you avoid the loose/sagging skin problem. I usually eat 2 whole eggs with 1 egg white for breakfast. Eggs are really satisfying for me and really make me feel like i'm not on a diet.

She's not really lying. She IS on a low carb diet. Weight loss surgery is not a magic pill, people who get surgery can still gain weight if they eat small amount constantly all day. They still have to do all the same work that everyone else has to do to lose weight. It sounds like you are jealous of her success.
