Way to go!! I to want to lose 100lbs I started in Jan and I have lost a total of 31. I lost half here on MFP. You inspire me to keep going thanks.

For right now it's a biggest loser contest at work. Five weeks to go. Reward $500 and a free Golds gym membership. But for me it's the bragging rights. Now I'm pushing for another competition to see who can keep it off by next year. I love incentive were programed to respond when a carrot is dangled. And yes I said carrot…

First and for most you did nothing wrong. If you have guilt about giving into temptation stop it! This does nothing for you. You should eat the things that you love. Try this take that slice of pizza and cut it in half and eat the same amount of a veggie first. Do the same with the pasta. You cut that 700 in half and fill…

Yes and Santa himself will deliver it to your door. Eat right, drink a lot of water and exercise. But boy do I wish Leprechauns did exist.

My trainer always said 5 minutes of cardio followed by weights and then 30 more minutes of cardio.

I stopped soda years ago. I was drinking 2-3 44 ounce cups a day. Ween your self off cold turkey is horrible. Make sure you add a grip of water to your plan. I drink half my body weight in ounce of water about 145. Yes I use the potty often but my liver loves me for it. By no means have I been a picture of health over the…

Thanks a lot everyone glad to be here.

It's good to be back although it its bitter sweet. Yes I have gained back much of what I lost. NO EXCUSES for me I don't believe in them. My failures are lessons and I refuse to make the same mistake twice. I have even more incentive this time then before. I am looking forward and not looking back. I know this community…

Apocalypse Now Here's an old one, " I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue."

I gotta tell you I have become that personality a few times in my life. It has always come about because some outside factor is inhibiting me from being myself. Stress is the easy answer but once it was a girl. She had me so twisted that I was a complete D#ck to all my loved ones. Thank god I have a strong enough family to…

That Billy is one insightful guy. Harry: You realize, of course, that we could never be friends. Sally: Why not? Harry: What I'm saying is that men and women can't be friends, because the sex part always gets in the way. Sally: That's not true. Harry: No man can be friends with a woman he finds attractive. He always wants…

Bubble Gum

I teach special education and just started a supported living business for adults with developmental disabilities with severe behavior problems.

Here is something for you to try. Every time you feel the urge to eat because your alone or having family issues or stresses just do 10 jumping jacks, push ups or crunches. I started doing this and found that it changes your mind set away from your craving. It releases endorphins in your brain giving you a euphoric…

Just wanted to say hello. Sorry I have not been around I hope to return to the board soon. I have managed to keep my weight off and I am looking forward to losing a lot this summer. Keep up the good work MFP's you all rock.

My wife won't let shave mine off. I guess that means she likes it. Something about it tickles. But seriously dude go wild it's only hair and most women will like you regardless of what's on your face if you have great personality to go along with it.

Thanks everyone for your support.:happy: :heart:

One hard boiled egg and 16 ounce water

I have gained back 9 pounds!!!! Time to stop my destructive behavior. Thank goodness for this site and my family to help me get back on the road to reaching my goal. I am trying to look at this as a positive experience instead of a bad one. It was bound to happen sooner or later I'm just happy I caught it before I gained…

If I go big one day I don't really try to make up for it. I start everyday as a fresh start. Dwelling on what bad things you did yesterday won't help you today. Sure you can exercise a litte more but I would keep your food the same. Good luck

Piece of low cal cake. Still 20/20 here

I'm finally addicted to something positive and you want to ween me off. I DON'T THINK SO PAL. BACK OFF I NEED MY CRACK! LOL

I stopped soda in September07. I love soda but I know if I drink that soda it's one less water bottle I will drink. If you can try to wein your self off the stuff. I stopped buying cans and went to bottles so that I could give myself smaller and smaller amounts each day until I didn't need it anymore. It wasn't easy I had…

I walked and chewed bubblegum while losing weight. lol Sugar free of coarse.

My wife and I just got back from my birthday weekend in San Fransisco. We left behind our 3 year old and our 11 month old with family of coarse. No matter what my wife and I need our time and short trips are not going to effect your children in a negative way. In fact some studies show that it teaches them to become…

H2 O is the best. Did they mention how many ounces each glass needs to be?

I got tired just reading your post. That's a lot of exercise. Make sure your taking in enough calories for your body to burn. Good luck and welcome.

You will find many friends here. Good luck were here 4 U.:smile:

Feb 28 th just passed. Wow did I have fun. Now back 2 work. I have to lose that fun I just had.

I like the same old questions I need to hear the answers over and over again. And let us not forget that as veterans we have results to prove the answer.
