Like some one else here said and I like it. You don't have to lose 100 pounds. You only have to loose 1 pound 100 times. Easy, one step at a time.

Yep, pretty similar situation. I am doing the he same thing. Finding what is going to work for me for the rest of my life. I'm actually finding it to be a lot of fun. Congrats on your progress!

Awesome! Way to go and sweet Tele. I have a few electric twangers hanging on the wall too.

Thanks. I know what you are saying. I truly do. But this works for me. This, to me, is simply the unabashed truth of my situation. Frankly it is fueling me. Make no mistake I do love myself. It is why I am finally going to be successful on this journey. I figure I have at the least a year and more realistically two years…

That is fine. I really don't care what you believe or don't believe. I know what I did. 400 isn't that much I lifted with guys that were way stronger than me back in the day. I only mentioned it to show how far I've allowed myself to fall. Simple as that. Have a good day.

Yep, this IS a journey. I'm NOT on a diet as many have asked me how my "diet" is going. Ther is NO DIET. Period. The path I'm on will be for the rest of my life, which I hope will be a long damn time. I was killing myself to be sure. Yeah, not as fast as a bullet to the head but killing myself nonetheless. I finally like…

I'm in. If you ever need a kick in the *kitten* let me know. I will lose another 145 pounds. I'll be around awhile. Accountability Consistency No excuses. Let's do this!

You've taken the hardest step. The first one. You can do it. I've only recently started mytself. 2 months ago I was at my all time high and now I am down 30 pounds... with many, many more to go. Record your food and never stop. I'll be doing this for the rest of my life. I HAVE to. more importantly I want to. Exercise a…

Feel free to add me. I'll be here for a loooooooooooooong time.

I get it. I really do. But, for me, achieving my goal will be its own reward. Not hat I deserve a reward. I am disgusted with myself for letting it get this out of hand. Why should I reward myself for doing what I should have been doing years ago? Why should I reward myself for getting out of a situation I never should…

You can do it. I am way, way fat and I have about 145lbs yet to lose (down 30 atm). I don't focus on the 145 number much. I'm just looking at the next 5 or 10. A very attainable goal. 145 seems so far away. 5-10 not so much. one pound at a time and you'll be amazed how much you've lost 3 months down the road. The "high"…

Simply awesome. I will be following in your footsteps.

I gained because I LOVE food and I was lazy as can be. I was on the road a lot in my last job and it was so easy to simply grab a pizza before checking into the hotel or better yet have one delivered once I was settled in for the night. Complete lack of discipline. I could have made plenty of better choices and pretty much…

Yep, you can do this. One day at a time. One good choice at a time. No excuses, no failure. The journey of 1,000 miles begins with one step. I have at least 145 lbs. to go. it will be a long journey. But hey, it is only 1lb. 145 times. EASY.

You CAN do it. We all can.

That is awesome. Way to go! I will join you at the maintenance weight one day!

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. There is not a shadow of a doubt that I or anyone else who puts their mind to it can achieve their goals. Just don't lie to yourself about what is going? I WAS lying to myself for a long time. No longer! I'm fat, I OWN it... and I am doing something about it. Finally. I am convinced I…
