One year later
I have started and stopped in my quest to be a more fit person several times. However, I decided to really buckle down last year.

A small step towards the larger goal
I've been on and off of MFP for a while, but I got back on it. I got up to around 275 and cracked down thanks to my wife and my friend who's going for her personal trainer license. I'm under 250 for the first time since high school. I do have a larger frame and I'm 6'3", so I'll carry a little weight. I'm doing this not…

NSV this week
I was taking off my shirt on Sunday and my wife commented that I looked smaller in the middle. (Where all my fat seems to be.) It made me smile because I've been working hard to help myself and support her.

Moment that made me smile (NSV)
Last week, I was lying in bed with my wife and we are cuddling. She looked down at my stomach and commented that my stomach looks smaller. I cooly say I hope that's not the only thing that's shrunk in size. It made me feel good that she's noticing my weight loss.

Kind of annoyed

How not to seem rude at a family gathering?
My father often likes to have a family gatherings and last night my aunt from California came over. I had a burger and a hot dog, but they were wondering why I wasn't eating more. I did tell them that I am trying to support my wife and her diet, and they were understanding. However, I felt like I was rude because I didn't…

Fightining Late Night Cravings
I work a job at a newspaper that requires me to work til 100-200 in the morning. I have a little snack around 800 p.m., but I am very hungry at the end of the night. I don't want to give in to something that's not healthy. Any ideas on a good snack or tips to make me skip that snack. Thanks.
