OK so I am only updating so soon after my official weigh in because I am so quick to post negative stuff. The bubble has burst and I am down 3 pounds since yesterday morning. Feels good man. Had a can of tuna and a small salad for dinner and feel like I am busting at the seams.

So I have been a bit harsh on myself. I just went to input my official weight and realized I am down 10.4 since last Monday and 35.2 since 11/9. I was short sighted because I had stumbled some and feel like I should have been down further. LOL back on the mental diet upswing.

Welcome Liz, I have been down then up and am heading back down. Once you get started it become easier.

Added bro. Similar-ish story, I have gone through this once already going from 295-220 and have started again recently. I can say from experience that I didn't need more cash to diet. In fact I save a bunch of money because I am eating stuff like eggs and cans of tuna. Although I have a gym membership I rarely do cardio…

Still stagnant. Gonna take a break from the scale this week and just keep my diet on point.

Official weigh in is tomorrow. I got a bit drunk last night and ended up at the pizza place and ate all the things. Still feeling pretty good about what I will end up at after the holiday gains.

WOW! Very motivating post

Drinking while dieting is one of the hidden benefits. Fasted drinking will get you buzzed with a quickness. I had an 8 month period where I was going on an average of 3-4 dates a week which meant a ton of drinking. I just deducted the calories from the next day and it worked out fine.

h-h-hi mbyron.

Good job homie. I have a similar story. Went from 292-210, ditched a woman and I'm from Chicago. LOL I bounced back up but am working my way back down.

Just assume everyone you see online is socially awkward to some degree. Trying to become social from the ground up is a difficult task so I recommend signing up for social events or a team sport. If you are just talking about adding MFP friends then just know that people toss out some BS motivational crap on their feed.…

Was talking to a friend of mine and he was mentioning that he is the heaviest he has ever been so we decided to have a weight loss challenge. As helpful as MFP is there is nothing like having someone near by to hold you accountable. Just got over my chest cold so I will be restarting tomorrow.

Totally went off the rails during the holidays and then came down with a bit of a chest cold. Skipping my official weigh in and will get back to the diet once I get better.

Fuark guys. Yesterday I was down 2 before I went to the gym and went nuts on the treadmill. I ate well after the gym but somehow woke up with no loss for the week. I am guessing the loss will show up this week however I am going out of town for the holiday and no good will come of that. I feel like I am in flux here and am…

Thanks for the kind words! As far as losing too fast goes, I really feel like I know how my body reacts to different things and if I get carried away with under eating I stop losing weight. Since my big loss last week I have been taking it easy and was up 3 from Monday this morning. No biggie but I still did some fasted…

This is one of the best post I have seen on these forums.

Decided to add a Goals column to my spreadsheet so I can track successes and failure. I have looked back at my old log and some other places I have posted and the more info the better.

Had to work on it a little but got down to my goal of 7 for the week. That puts me down 32.6 since I restarted 11/9. Next weeks goal is -4. BRB celebrating with chips and salsa.

Last push before my official weigh in tomorrow. Down exactly 6 and shooting for 7.

Fitting update for my 100th post. Today is one month since I restarted my diet. I told myself that I needed a killer week and I am definitely on track so far. Down 3.4 since Monday and exactly 29 pounds since I started one month ago. The first time I dieted I lost 60 in 6 months. I am definitely on track to kill that and…

Holy hell did life deal you some bad cards! I too unfortunately know some of your feels. I think you already know your answer about the dietitian. Try different things and do what works best for you. I think the most important part is staying positive. My boy is most likely on the spectrum and while there are many day to…

Had an off week that I will attribute to my body catching up to the extreme lack of calories. Still down 3 for the week and 25.6 since 11/9. Shooting for a huge loss this week. May have to do some cardio LOL.

I started my diet after the beginning of the month. I weigh in on Mondays. 11/9- 272 11/16-263 11/23-255.2 11/30-249.4

Thanks! ^^ The main thing that got me motivated to start dieting again was how my clothes fit. So here are my goal jeans. I was able to button them at 215 but they were in no way fitting correctly. I am thinking if I can get down around 190 they should fit so thats my current long term goal with a goal date of my birthday…

Today was my official weigh in and dipped into the 240's. Its a sad state of affair that I am happy to be in the 240's but its better than the 270s I was in at the beginning of the month. Definitely making far more progress than I did the first go round.

I made it through Thanksgiving no worse for the wear. I ended up fasting all day and only ate during the actual meal instead of grazing a few hour before. The main benefit of having my old log is being able to compare weights on a week to week basis. I was a month into my original diet before I got to my most recent…

added bro. I am always full of unsolicited advice and nonsensical ramblings.
