45 day transformation challenge!
Ok, I think its just bads1 and I left, but even still: 45 days until August 1st. For me, that's the start of my family vacation to the beach. I am undergoing a serious diet tracking/exercise regimen that I am hoping culminates in the loss of at least 1 waist size and tshirt size, and at least 30 lbs. I know 30 lbs is a lot…

Anyone still here?
This board has been dead for almost 6 months. Anybody still out there? Any success stories? Relapses? I put weight back on, and left the site for a bit, feeling pretty dejected. But I'm back now. I know that failure is okay, but what isn't okay is quitting. Holler if you're still lurking!

How's everyone doing?
I know it's been months since anyone's posted, and I fell off the wagon a bit myself. Instead of completely self destructing, I made a note of my behavior and triggers, and started today with a good workout and healthy breakfast. On my way to work, I bought healthy food to keep in my work fridge so I can make lunch every…

Halloween?
So, Big & Tall friends, I LOVE Halloween. But it can be difficult to find good costumes. Usually, I can make it work. I have won 4 out of the last 6 years worth of costume contests in my area with some good couples/pairs costumes. I have a friend who is tall and thin, and there are quite a few costumes that work: We were…

Tales of Bigness
Tell me your tales of bigness. Funny, poignant, whatever. Share a 'big' story if you've got one, and I know you all do. I'll start. Sandbridge, Virginia Beach, 2009. Family vacation. Hanging at the crappy dive bar at the one end of the island with my brothers. Younger brother is 29, 6'4 and 170lbs. I'm 6'2, 325, and my…

Serious question for my Big & Tall peoples
First question is: Where did our ladyposters go? Second, more serious question: Do you ever read the other side of these boards? You all know the ones. "I'm 135lbs and I can't gain weight no matter what I do, I just stay skinny". Now, I'm not dismissing these peoples claims. I go to the gym 5 days a week, and I see little…

Hi.
Hi, I am a 35 yo M, 6'2", 350lb, (159kg). I have always been big, mostly athletic, but have just let myself go since being married 7 years ago. I want to be healthier. I know I'll never have a six pack, but it would be nice to only have one chin again. I have been lifting weights for a year now, and have yo-yoed in weight…
