Always had the app
Hello I have been a long time member. Honestly I often I don’t track my food, very rare. I think it is good to weigh yourself every day at least for me. I never have been able to go all in with tracking food. I think that might be a make or break point pertaining to weight loss. I didn’t like the number at my biometric…

Tell me why I can succeed
I have never been consistent with a food diary. I feel I used to be able to pull myself up by the bootstraps but getting older and a couple of brain surgeries I don’t seem to have that obsessive motivation. For me I have to believe dropping weight is a reality.

Starting Strength
I am curious as to anyone that has done the Starting Strength program. It is a 3x5 routine, 3 days a week based on the squat, overhead press, bench press and deadlift. It uses linear progression where weight goes up gradually.

I am a stay at home dad with 2 kids, ages 10 and 14. I am a big guy at 6'4". In 2003 I was diagnosed with a brain tumor in the frontal lobe which controls emotion and motivation.

Coffee has carbs?
I never thought anything of it but black coffee has carbs. I may have to switch to green tea. Nothing jacks you up like some Joe.

I asked to change to another like Wellbutrin and he said that can lower your seizure threshold. I should say that U have had brain tumor surgeries, chemo and radiation.…

Influence by spouse?
my wife and I are both obese (I can't believe I said that about myself.). We have always loved to eat, eat out, and find comfort in food. I grew up eating well, but we are at home. I have gotten older but I wonder if I have gravitated towards being heavier because I could? She was heavier and I Was athletic. It is my fault…

Gorging at night
I do very very well during the day. Every night for the last month I have went to bed and woke him up. I go in the kitchen and have a free-for-all eating binge. I guess I am consuming maybe 2 to 3000 calories. Every day I promised myself this will happen and every night I fail

I have a chance to get off Zoloft
I ran out of the medication and I think I may be off the drugs. I May have been depressed initially being off of them. However I am feeling better now. Also when I started taking Zoloft I believe my weight did go up. It is not listed on the prescription as a side effect but I have heard anecdotal stories to agree with me.

Can you do this alone?
hi used to be in shape my wife is not on track with me or has bought into losing weight. In a way I think I may be pulled down or lulled into complacency. As a family I find it much harder to stay in shape then when I was single.

What do you think of this quote?
I hate laziness. I hate excuse-making. I hate rationalization and self-bullshitting. I hate willful ignorance. I hate watching people piss away their potential. I hate it when people blame everyone but themselves. I hate mental weakness. This was taken from TNation

Logging over eating
okay so I am running down everything I am eating. I am having a bad day a bit depressed and I have resorted to eating garbage. What is the point of writing everything down if your behavior will not change??

Fat, depressed, accountabilibuddy?
I am a 41 ear old man. Playing basketball with my son I was slapped in theface that I am a fatty. I am 41 and have let myself go. I hate this fat suit. I want so bad to be fit and am consumed with my body appearance. However, my effort or lack of focus has stalled any dreams I have had. I know that being this I would be so…

I find walking painfully boring.
I lift weights hard 4 days a week where I am doing a 8x8 routine from Vince Gironda. It is a killer. I really need to walk everyday, up to an hour. How can I make this more interesting? My knees do not always feel great since I have bone on bone in my knees.

In a big rut
I have a major problem with night eating. I have had a medical issue the last month and I have been depressed and sedentary. Last night I ate a whole thing of cookie dough. What am I doing? I never thought I would weigh 300 in my wildest dreams. Ugh

Night binges
I am doing really well except that I binge eat for maybe 5 minutes I go to bed sometimes. If I can take out that it would be awesome. I just keep shooting myself in the foot. Does anyone have this? I hate to go to bed hungry.
