Yep I think I'll pass. I would like to get rid of the adds but I can live with it.

This looks like a great thread. Looks like a lot of you put up some really serious miles. My goal is to get an hour in each day during the week which for a fat guy like me is about 12 to 15 miles a day and around 240 for the month. I do ride to work but it's a short commute of only a mile from my house to the office. We…

Happy Monday all! I didn't lose anything last week but I have been pretty much on track except for the weekends which killed me last week. I'm hoping this week will be better. I ate well on Friday, had a treat day Saturday, and ate well on Sunday. So I did much better than last weekend. I have not been able to walk to work…

Thanks all for the welcome back. Doing great this week and feel great. The force is strong within me again. LOL

Hi all, sorry I have been awol. I know I was going over to the other community but that petered out too. It has been a rough six months and I'm up 48 lbs since then. I am back on track but struggling some. I hope to have that 48 off by the 1st of Jan. Carol I listened and enjoyed your last pod cast. It sounds like everyone…

Hello all, it's good to see you so active on here. Things are going well for me and I am back on plan. Had a good loss last week and should see a good one this week. Keep up the good work everyone.

Happy New Years everyone. Christmas and thanksgiving were bad on the weight but back to walking and tracking and eating healthy! Have a good night and be safe!

Well I am down from last week. At one point I was weighing in at 307 last week but I was not really tracking and that could have been night weight vs morning, not sure. I took a couple week dive with Thanksgiving as you all know. I am now 299 which is up 10 lbs from pre-thanksgiving but down from last week. At least I am…

Is that happening where you are Heronh? TJ I think it was from an interview he was doing but still a lousy way to be and say something like that.

Thanks for the kind words all, and I will still be in and out maybe just not as regular as I was. I just wanted to let you know what I was doing is all. TJ I also really like Alton however I have been discouraged by his being a hater of fat people who have made him the success he is, it's a little two faced. I agree with…

Hi all, I didn't want you to think I was dead. lol A couple things have kept me away. First for a couple weeks my eating was horrible. I have probably put on maybe 10 lbs over the thanksgiving two week celebration. lol Second I hate the forums here they need to add the simple features that all other forums have, such as…

Well I have not updated my weight the past 3 weeks and had gained 8 lbs but I'm now back to what my tracker says so that is good. I really need to watch it with the holidays coming up. If it were not for support for my wife I would probably count in my head a lot more. I have all the calories down from years of practice.…

I hear you, everyone body is different. I will have to keep that in mind if I have friends that are calorie counting and don't lose. Of course you do have to believe them when they say there are writing every bite down. LOL I'm not saying that is you I'm just saying so many are in denial of what they really eat. I won't…

I know some people can do paleo or other types diets and do lose but it seems like it always comes down to calories at least I know it does for me. Even though people don't like to say they our counting they are somewhat just by the type of food they are eating. For example if your eating more healthy we lean toward more…

Yes had a good time. Got to know John a little better all though I'm not so sure I added much we needed more people to pick up the slack in my conversation. lol

Here is the link. https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/gvphvnae6b2qw2gbwgw5qmbkbea

Ok sorry you can't make it. John you still on or do you want to try for another night?

Shoot I have to be off by 9pm I promised the wife a movie night.

I'm in I will start at 8pm EST send me your gmail address if you want to join and I don't already have it. See you all to night. Send to howie@thehman.com

Congrats John on the CDSS! And yes Heronh, John is correct that the hangout was set for Nov 2 first Sunday of the month. 8pm EST.

Down one pound this week after a 4 lb gain the two weeks before.

I'm not opposed to to it but have not thought about it.

Good to see you back TJ! Heronh, I am glad to hear your pets are doing well. Are fall gardening consist of leave cleanup and getting ready for snow. :-) John I am glad your test came back good. I am surprised Carol has not been on here. She emailed me about finding the group after they changed things around. She was also…

Beautiful fall weekend here! We have been going on long drives in the country and taking pictures. Diet has been horrible this past week and I put on 4lbs. I have to get back in gear.

Well shoot, lol. I wanted to get us all in there. I screwed things up by not being able to last Sunday. Maybe we just stick to having our chats here for this month and skip October and go for the first Sunday of November as set before and I will do all I can to be there for the next one. So Nov 2nd at 8pm EST. I'm sorry…

Sorry I checked back a couple times but had not seen anything then did not check later in the day. How about Thursday at 10 EST? John are you available. I know you said you were last night but I was hoping to get as many of us as possible together. We can just keep it to an hour so no one is up to late.

I forgot about the time difference for you guys. I can do it later. I can go as late a 10pm EST and on any evening this week.

I just realized Kimberley had plans made for us tonight. I apologize but this is not going to work for me. Would tomorrow night work? I thought Sundays would be a good night for me but maybe a week night would be better being that the last two Sunday's I was not able to participate. If that does not work and others jump on…

Thanks for the links Heronh and John!

Stacy, I personally think you can throw those charts out the window. You do have to think about what you can live with and how you feel. If that is 11 lbs over what the charts say then so be it. Don't beat yourself up. Find a spot where you are healthy and happy and maintain that. I finally after all summer have made it to…
