Dark to Light Beer Ticker Image for Download!
Hey folks, I made this image for my weight-loss ticker (as you can see below.) I kinda modified it from a few online images I found, and wanted to make it available for others to use if they'd like! I went with a "heavy to light" premise on the colors. You could use MS Paint to flip it if you'd like! Just right-click and…

99 Bottles of Beer (on the table...)
Greetings all! I just saw this "club" mentioned in the "women who drink beer" thread and didn't even hesitate to join! My name is Jeff, but I go by the "ViperMan" and am an avid homebrewer! My Untappd username is "ViperMan" as well. This weekend I'm having a party at my house called the "ViperDen Brewery 99 Bottles of Beer…

Yes - it DOES get harder...
Time for more fun with Excel (and Photoshop, too!) I posted this graph first in mid-October, showing how my weight loss had been pretty consistent even when I thought I was frequently "plateauing"... Well I've kept the spreadsheet up to date with each new weight-loss entry on MFP, and the information is pretty interesting.…

Losing Weight ISN'T HARD - Here's My Proof!
WOW what a whirlwind it's been lately! On Christmas Eve, after taking me to the MedExpress where I was diagnosed with the flu, then running me over to the drug store to get my prescription filled, my wife's water broke while standing in line at a Walgreens. Two and a half hours later, baby Melanie Lynn was born. For the…

When in doubt... EAT AT SUBWAY!!!
So earlier this week I made THIS rant: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/812366-the-most-frustrating-plateau-yet The one thing I took from responses was that I could benefit from some more "lean muscle." So I googled "How to build lean muscle" and basically learned that I should.... ...diet and exercise. "Yeah no…

The most frustrating plateau yet!!
I'm mostly here to simply rant... When I joined MFP I was stuck around 219 pounds. I was 30 below my starting point, and the lack of progress was annoying the hell out of me. Within the first week of joining MFP I lost 5 pounds. That was amazing. My weight loss slowed after that (which frankly I expected) and today I'm…

Big dinner or little dinner?
I'm a little hesistant to ask this as I know I'm going to get a wild variety of answers, and might end up more confused than I am now... So let me share some specific details related to MY diet, and hopefully you folks can hone in on what will work for me. I eat 3 meals a day - breakfast, lunch and dinner. IF I snack…

Bored today... So I "analyzed" my diet so far...
Have been kinda curious about the "state of my union" with this weight-loss strategy. I've felt like the weight-loss has been extremely slow in the recent months, and I wanted a way to compare it to my initial progress when I started, which seemed faster. Thus, a GRAPH... (I'm a bit of an excel junky, I'll admit...) I…

Really getting irritated... No weight change in weeks...
I told myself I wouldn't do this, but.... well I am... I've been stuck in the "two-teens" of my weight now for nearly 2 months. I was 219 for a LONG time, joined MFP and within a week lost 5 pounds. I've fluctuated between that weight - 214 - and 216 ever since. It's been another 4 weeks. I'm doing a combination low-carb,…

This made me happy...

I'm Halfway Gone
"Cause I'm halfway gone and I'm on my way and I'm feeling, feeling, feeling this way..." -Lifehouse, "Halfway Gone" The little slider below should tell the point here, but today I reached the halfway point for my weight loss. As I sit here at my desk chair in the office (with my less-than-stellar posture) I notice... my…
