My dog crosses the line |
 11 pounds lost since last Monday. I already feel so much better. The change in diet and daily work outs are giving me energy I haven't had in a while. I'm just starting on this new path but if I can do it, anyone can. | ||

A good salad is always worth fighting for. In a while, after the "easy" weight is lost, you may feel the difference even a couple pounds makes when climbing steps. Good luck! | |||

Excellent! Just remember this: nothing tastes as good as being thin feels. Keep it up! | |||

Congrats Jeff! Are you following a set meal plan or just keeping your diet very clean by cutting out the processed carbs and other junk? --------------------------------------- Life Member NRA “If you realize that all things change, there is nothing you will try to hold on to.

1200-1500 calories a day, very few carbs, lots of low starch vegetables and at least 30 minutes of daily walking, swimming and working out. | |||

How have you felt dealing with hunger as the body adjusts? That was always hard for me. I am about to get going on a program to drop 25 and get ready to do some serious backpack trips in Aug/Sept, and it is not easy, I know. I got in serious shape years ago before doing a lot of climbing, but it is much harder to get in shape in middle age. | |||

No problems with hunger. I am super motivated and that helps. | |||

Good on you, Jeff. Motivation is super important. I have docs in the family, and they all say that a sedentary/overweight lifestyle is almost as bad as chain-smoking. I am also on a plan to lose a few and get back to some serious mountain exploits this summer. Keep it up. BTW do you sell fish supplies? I need a source for frozen Hikari bloodworms for my Discus tank. TIA | |||

Good for you! When bryan11 decided to go low-carb, I thought cooking would be more of an ordeal, but it's pretty easy to make substitutions like spiralized zucchini or konjac noodles instead of pasta, cauliflower instead of rice, and almond flour instead of wheat flour for bread and pizza crust. You won't be fooled into thinking it's the same thing, but it makes meals more interesting if you accept variations. SIGforum's triple minority "It can't rain all the time." - Eric Draven | |||

Embrace the suck  I lost 52 lbs then after bottoming out about a year ago put 45 back on. Reinstated the program, much like Jeff's. There's a pool at work worth $200 at the end of the month between 10 of us and a couple of guys are putting up some serious competition. So Jeff, are you like me and after the first 10 it might not be a big visual difference but you feel looser in your skin I am not BIPOLAR. I don't even like bears. | |||

Jeff, I'd like to ask what's in the bowl on the right. Tomatoes, zucchini, celery, peppers? Am I close? _______________________________________ Flammable, Inflammable, or Nonflammable....... Hell, either it Flams or it doesn't!! (George Carlin) | |||

Great job Jeff. Keep it going for the long haul. "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

Good for your, Jeff. Keep it up. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

Wait, did you disguise the bacon to look like chicken, brocolli and tomatoes? | |||

I think you would be closer But at 1 o'clock it looks like a piece of cheese or tofu so I don't know whats going on there. Looks good enough to me though, enough to maybe throw an elbow to get in on it. | |||
