Job interview and suit issue.
Okay so the the great news is today I just found out I have a job interview Friday. I normally wear a suit and tie but my problem is my old suit and tie is way, way too big. I was not out looking for the job it just came out, that's the only reason why I don't have one ready to go. I went to the store and I really hate…

Personal Trainer Experience
Has anyone used a personal trainer before? I signed up for 3 sessions at my gym to just try it out. I think it would be great to have some extra guidance other than the internet and what I think I should be going. I know I can go this on my own as I have already proved but thought it would be good to get some in person…

1yr on MFP
Wow it's been a year on here already! it's amazing how different things are from last year. I was 100+ more pounds. Shopping in big and tall stores/sections. Could hardly walk up the stairs without being out of breath. I was lazy and would sit around and watch TV when not working and now while I still watch TV I watch much…

To the losers who yelled "fat a**" when running
So I was doing my 5k run last night. I run around my neighborhood for 3.5 to 4 miles (3.10 miles and then a cool down). I am running and some car comes driving by and some guys sticks his head out the window and yells something about me being a "fat a**". Okay so a few points 1. I already know I am fat but thanks for…

NSV Shirt Size
I fit into an XL shirt today without stretching it out and it fits awesome. I got this shirt 4 months ago on purpose knowing at some point I would fit into it. Well I threw it on today and boom! it fit! I felt so great. Now I can't wait till I no longer need to have an X at all in the size of my clothes.

So I signed up for my first 5k!
Signed up for my first 5k. I am kind of nervous but can't wait for July 4th to roll around to knock it out of the way. I don't plan to have a fast time. I currently run around 42 to 45 minutes but I wanted to do it to say I can. Anyone have anything to share from their first 5k?

NSV - Theme Park
We went to Six Flags over Texas a few times the past couple of weeks and I have really enjoyed it. There was only one ride I was semi uncomfortable in which was the Wylie Coyte coaster that I rode with my son. But it was not really made for adults but I did fit in it! I was able to ride every ride with my son and then my…

Running NSV
I have been working on C25k for awhile and I have been repeating days so I finally decided to give the Week 5 Day 3 a go. I was thinking 20 minute run, I won't be able to do but I can at least see how long and far I can run. Well the only break I did was about 20 seconds to drop off my redbox movie but I did the full 20…

My NSV this weekend
Back on Nov. 29th 2011 I did a video game study for gearbox games and part of the perks was a bunch of swag. One of the items of Swag was an awesome shirt that said gearbox on it. The biggest size they had was 2x. So I checked that on my paper and got home to see how it fit. I could barely squeeze into it, it was sooo…

Spouse support
So does anyone actually get support from their spouse? My wife is not a small women but she is not really overweight either. She is always bringing in some type of desert and sweets. I have nicely asked her to not stop brining sweets in the house just don't bring so many at one time. She always says to me I am not going to…

lose skin
So I have only lost a little over 40 pounds so far but i was just wondering for those that have lost 100+ pounds if they have lot's of loose skin and if so what they did with it or planning on doing. I know it can take a while for the skin to go back to normal after losing a lot of weight but I am wondering if I should…

Newbie
New Here on the boards. I have lost 15 pounds before logging weight on MFP so a total of 45 in a little over 3 months. I just realized one day that I wanted to lose weight and have been doing it since. I had lost tons of weight when I was around 17 but did not really know what I did other than being really active. So I…
