^^^This.

It's a long thread, but if you take a few minutes and read the whole thing, you will find a bunch of useful info, not to mention a lot of ups and downs from different CA members.

Good morning all!

Bob - congrats on the progress! Thats awesome!

Dom - welcome to the show, this is a great group and has been a big help to me. Lots of encouragement and help. Andrew is spot on about the water - I drink too much Diet Coke / Pepper and it really affects the body. Drinking more and more water helps in so many ways.

I like the PM idea ALOT!

Best of luck to all.

Thanks for the welcome Travis

Andy I like the Idea of reading about the ups and downs.
I only read back a few pages, but will read the whole thread when I start to get demoralized.
Actually got in some exercise yesterday.
I was moving furniture, so I'm calling it exercise in my book

Congrats on the progress Bob

Thanks guys. Looking back at the app I use to track all my stuff, i'm down 3lbs for the week. Great feeling to go down another belt notch on the new belt I just bought last month because the old one was too big. Got 2 more holes to go before I have to break out the drill or buy another new one.

Drinking water can really affect your appetite. I hadn't kept up on it the last couple of days and would get hunger pangs throughout the day, even as soon as a hour after eating a meal. Now that I'm back up to over 10 glasses a day, the hunger pangs are diminished.

You weigh in everyday or how often? Although I peek most every day, the only one that concerns me is the weekly weigh-in. Turn that anger into positive focus, Myles.

goalie204 · 05-12-2011, 11:01 PM

every morning, but im going to stop now and just go to sundays.

mfarre03 · 05-12-2011, 11:38 PM

I have to weigh everyday and keep a record, not use to that, usually once a week does it.
Down to 413, crazy!

Chainsaw13 · 05-13-2011, 06:56 AM

Keep it up Mike and Myles.

Starscream · 05-13-2011, 07:28 AM

You'll be down below 400 before you know it, Mike. Keep it up!

Starscream · 05-13-2011, 07:30 AM

I feel better today, so I'll be sure to workout this evening. My thighs have been sore over the last two days from all those squats from Tuesday evening. Spaghetti legs suck.

Chainsaw13 · 05-13-2011, 01:34 PM

Shlould've waited until today for my weigh-in, 241.2. And with the way my system's been cleaning itself out, I may be below 240.

jonumberone · 05-13-2011, 05:37 PM

I ran home for dinner on my break and managed to get in a brisk 20 min walk with the dog and baby in tow.

I'm finding that tracking calories may be a little too tedious for me.
Gonna stick with it and see if I can push through.
Getting excited about my first weigh in on Sunday.

Keep up the good work. Every little bit helps.

Starscream · 05-13-2011, 11:44 PM

Didn't get in my workout today, but worked up a sweat preparing for the yard sale in the garage today. Walked 1/4 mile after dropping the lawnmower off at my parents house, then rode the bike for about 3/4 of a mile putting up yard sale signs. Food was minimal but I drank about 1/2 a fifth of bourbon. Calorie high.

Texan in Mexico · 05-14-2011, 09:38 AM

Morning all, had something odd happen yesterday. I have laying off the sweets - Thursday was the gf b-day and I didn't have any cake. She took 90% of it to work to share and yesterday I had a small piece and it gave me a raging headache, I am good today but it ended my day. Maybe sugar shock?

dom, spark people is pretty easy for calorie counting, and it is a free mobile app.
