Running will only get you so far. I hate to say it, but it's true. And this is coming from a self-admitted cardio queen. (king?) So keep up the running, cause it's also a stress relief, but ensure that you focus on the nutrition and CICO as well.

GMO's are the Devil! so is Gluten! and Artificial sweeteners! and Sunshine! and Unicorns TOO if you're honest! Everything is bad according to at least one study. Even Unicorns. So honestly in todays society I just stick with the macros and don't worry too much about the rest. BTW: Beer is the forgotten 4th macro

My picture says it all.

DADDY SAID WE COULD!

I'll join you on your journey, if only so that we can laugh at what each other had for breakfast (PS, coffee has no calories if you drink it black).

Your best weight loss supplement is exercise. After that, a food scale. Finally a measuring tape. Just learn to know what your body needs and find foods that match your requirements. Then eat within your body's limits, and slowly but surely the inches will come off. 90% of people don't really want to lose weight. They want…

I chose to just keep getting swole! it's less work than the getting ripped. Thus the 12oz curls!

Sexy Dress, and laxatives. Dress so they overlook the inches the laxative didn't remove. But not both at the same time, that's a bad combo. Laxative will squeeze out (no pun intended... at first!) an inch from the waist.

To ensure I have enough calories left over at the end of the day to drink my precious beer and still keep the weight I want.

Feel free to add me, but be warned that I am abrasive, sarcastic, random, and definitely not going to take a serious approach to this. But I put on about 10 lbs so I am also back on the wagon. I just refuse to let it stress me out, so we can have fun as we motivate each other.

You can always request adds, not everybody will add though. But about 1/2 the people on here are willing to add and help. The other half just tell you you're a great candidate for a recomp and need to pick up heavy things.

Nice tie.

Wait! I don't have to eat steamed broccoli?!?!?!?

"Calorie: noun 1. Also called kilogram calorie, kilocalorie, large calorie. a unit of heat, equal to one thousand calories, often used to express the heat output of an organism or the energy value of food Cal 2. The amount of a specific food capable of producing one thousand calories of energy." Thus, birch may contain…

I have read this thread and realized that I am a shallow horrible person. But I like losing weight because of the fact that I can now turn a few heads when I take my shirt off. And I find thinner women attractive. But since I know that I am shallow and not a real person because I have my own personal preferences, I am OK…

Not going to say it's the end-all, but recently started experimenting with freeletics, and with a few adjustments you can do most of their workouts in your home, and the only thing you need is a pull-up bar.

Give him a trash bag and an empty bottle to spit into. That's how you lose weight for a match. Then as soon as you weigh you pound water. Or has this old trick gone by the wayside in today's society? Cause that's just as healthy as a teenager starving down to a weight just to make a class.

1/2 Marathon (Done), Duathlon (Bike/Run), and overall keep training my body to climb higher, run farther, swim longer, and do whatever I want to do, not do what I am able to do.

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccccccchhhhhhhhhhhh Tttttttttrrrrrrrrrrrrrooooooooooolllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Part of having a healthy relationship with food and your body it knowing that it's OK once in a while to pig out or over indulge. Just know that it's a rarity and enjoy it for what it is.

Welcome back. Time to get serious hun! And it's a fun journey as long as you set the goals the right way.

I have flowers in my tummy. Is that where the butterflies land when they quit fluttering?

That's the kind of weekend I enjoy! You can sit at home every night. Get out of the house on the weekends!

Not here! Satuday morning is meant for the 10 mile run I can't get in during the work week. Followed by either rock climbing or sailing. Both solid workouts, and then usually walking around an amusement park pushing a stroller. I'd say I get twice the workout in on weekends than I do any given weekday.

As far as for the OP. I have been tobacco free for almost a year now. I tried multiple times to quit, and finally did it with an Ecig. It's a good way to try. However, to this day I will find myself reaching toward where I used to keep the smokes in my car. My grandmother quit smoking over 40 years ago and says that to…

Funny, This whole argument and I keep thinking, "Who is smoking to keep cravings away?" She still smokes because she craves the nicotine, not food. It's a misassociation based on her lack of experience with smoking. She is automatically redirected to her own inner cravings.

Washing your hands before you eat your cookies!

<<<Have been known to chug 1/2 gallon of water immediately following a run. And routinely chug 2-3 bottles of water within 15 minutes of exercise. Also not afraid to let my body tell me when I need to be careful, not a thread of anonymous people who love to crack on silly questions.

Tell them because it's better than workplace violence as a stress reliever. They look at you funny and leave you alone.

Simple answer for you. Keep doing what you're doing, and one day you will be there. I found a simple recipie of eating properly and working out is the easiest method. The only math involved was macro counting and TDEE. Don't worry about losing XXX lbs or achieving XX%. it will happen. Just focus on the scale and body…
