I eat what I want when I want it. Although I find that what I want isn't the same as it was 61 pounds ago and I'm not near as much of a glutton as I was or a sweets fiend. Lean meats and fruits and veggies usually with the occasion Big Mac(no sauce) or grilled chicken breast sandwich(no fries EVAR). Tonight I am going to a…

The general came into the room and stood at the foot of the table where James lay. "I bet you're wondering who I am and why you're here?," he said leaning on the foot of the aluminum table, "I'm Joseph, but of course you can call me Joe. You're name is not important because you're really not important, to me or anyone else…

For a split second he was relieved to be falling because he knew this nightmare would soon be over. Death had a knack for ending these things for people but then his instincts kicked in. His military background served him well as he pulled his feet in to get ready for a tuck and roll move. Fortunately he wouldn't need this…

"What is this scent of humor you speak of? Sound like new air freshener. Me go crawl under my rock and gaze at Geico road sign while on break." The above were the last words of a former MFP moderator shortly before his head exploded from reading a joke book. Moral of this story. Never crack a joke... Crack Kills.

If all else proves unsatisfactory get a heart monitor. Make sure it factors in age and weight on the initial settings.

My gym has towels that they provide to take care of sweat on the machines and on you as well. You might want to grab an extra if they provide them and offer one to him while you're wiping your own machine down. He might get the hint that way. Or maybe accidentally leave your towel on a machine that you know he's waiting…

Whether through exhaustion or his brain's natural defenses against stress, James found himself sleeping where he sat. This time he didn't have the dream that's been repeating for months. This time he was tied to an alter surrounded by several people wearing hooded robes. Chanting began as he felt his heart race in his…

jules you rock!

He picked up the gun again. Whatever was out there had some kind of control over him and placed this weapon here for a reason. Maybe they were using it as a test. Whatever he did with it, he needed to make it count. He thought of his wife and daughter and how they sat, dead, on the porch. Were they really there or some…

Feel free to post any additions. Have fun and lets take James somewhere he's never been!

Lovely Good going! WOO HOO! That's the way to stay on track! FOCUSED! Burn CITY!

just curious: How many calories are in these powders? The one that I have after workouts is about 190 calories.

Mine is of me and my twins after running a charity run. It was only a mile long but it was the first time I had run anything in public. Plan on doing it with a smaller body and better performance next year for a full 5k run too!

Unless you live in salt water or have a residence at Sea World you're not a Whale. There are fashion models out there who weighed more than you do and they're freakin' HOT! Tell them to get the sand out of their eyes and their heads out of their you know whats and get a life. You're beautiful just the way you are and the…

I'll tell you what I tell myself every other day when I don't feel like getting on the treadmill to work out. I say: "Doug, get off your butt and get down there and do it. The weight's not gonna come off just sitting there." Point is this thing called weight loss is HARD. It's been said that it's harder than quitting…

I really don't care about losing pounds(technically), I actually care about not being able to play with my kids. After losing the weight I have so far i can now be more active with my kids and run and do a lot more things that I couldn't do before. I'm more into getting myself back into being healthy and if that means…

I went to Ozzfest about 4 times in the past I don't know how many years and the Black Sabbath reunion topped all of the bands. Pantera came a close second.

I'll get funky readings occasionally too. Try watching the readings when you're at rest to see if they change with the distance that you have your watch(if you have one with a watch which it sounds like you do) to see if the readings change. This happened to me and like the others said I changed the batteries and it read…

I think running is one of those things that, if you're new at it, you learn SO much right away. I've been running for about the same amount of time and I find myself doing the same thing as you. Keep up the great work!

When I first started I could eat all day everyday. What I HAD to do was map out my day. I have breakfast between 8 and 9 in the morning then a snack around 1030 or 11 then lunch between 12 or 1 then maybe a snack around 2 or 3 if I'm hungry then supper. The snacks are ALWAYS small and contain a decent amount of fiber to…

I've lost 60 pounds so far and was 340 when I started. When I got down to 305 I told myself that I need to get below 300. I wanted it BADLY. I finally got to 295 and was so happy. Not even a week later I started eating wrong and stopped working out. I stopped logging on here and stopped tracking my food. After a month I…

Now THAT'S SCARY! Time to get the Anti-ghpst spray out of my Batman utility belt.

I completely believe in the spirit world and ghosts. After several times that my relatives have died I could hear and feel them come to me and whisper things in my ear to tell me goodbye and to take care of my children. Also when my son was little we lived in my wife's grandparents house after both grandparents had past.…

I just looked on my Ohio license and it says 320(I lied and said I was lighter than I was at the time). I'm now at 280 so that's a 40 pound diff. My license expires this year so I'm hoping to make that difference 60 at least.

acdc, motley crue, god smack and ozzy to name a few. Like the old saying goes METAL RULEZ!

I totally misinterpreted the concept of this site but I'll tell the story anyway. I was at a marathon that my friend was running in and there was a sign there pointing to the water tables with an arrow. When I saw the arrow I looked where it was pointing and swore that it was directing to the portolets that were next to…

The best advice I can give you is ask you doctor. Now there are a lot of chair exercises that you can do until your foot get better and they burn real calories so you might want to try them.

I'm not sure I would. Is the park a big park like Disney or a small one. The last time I went to an amusement park I did log the exercise but I made sure I kept within my calorie limit without the exercise. I guess the thing here is, you're not technically doing a workout so you wouldn't be burning as many calories as you…

I would say being able to see my manh.... Just Kidding:laugh: Seriously, 1) being able to go out and play with my kids and not get tired after 2 minutes and needing to sit and towel myself off. 2)being able to run more than 30 seconds without feeling like I'm going to die 3)seeing the length of belt that I pull through my…
