i never got the "you looked better before", but i definately got the "damn, you're too skinny" when i went from 220 to 170.

but then i turned to lifting, and im up to 185 now, which is comfortable weight i thinkd

for those who are curious about nutritional information/weight watcher points

http://www.dietfacts.com is an awesome site and has tons of restaurants...i started mine again today even though i've played in 4 softball games since thursday...i have to get it in my head that there are healthier options than a "healthy" combo from wendy's (i.e. grilled chicken sandwich and salad). i lost 30 pounds the last time i dieted, but didn't keep it all off...

gg on this thread btw...i like going through and seeing the progress and signed up on the site blasphemour listed (weighttracker.info). with 3 to 4 more softball games tomorrow...that should help me get a good start and see some progress initially.

5/5/2007 9:04:29 PM

23lbs. lost so far.

5/6/2007 4:29:04 PM

^Kiwi

5/6/2007 4:29:30 PM

Congrats Kiwi, Thumper, Brandi, and Ryan. Congrats congrats all around.

5/6/2007 5:58:57 PM

^in the finals for the AE trip.

find out thursday if i get selected, its down to a small small group


thanks!!!!

It's amazing what some stress reduction can do. In the past month, I took the following steps to reduce stress:

1) Quit stressful job that paid peanuts and kept me occupied 70+ hours per week
2) Got new job that pays 50% more and gives me a little more free time
3) Moved to a house on the same block where I save $150 per month in total expenditures

The result? I finally lost the last ten pounds. Stress really can impact your weight. Unfortunately, controlling stress is easier said than done.

Jan 1st - 215.2
Today - 165.6
-49.6 lbs

Im starting to not trust my scale. last 3 days...
Mon - 168.2
Tue - 171.6
Today - 165.8

went up 3.4lbs one day, then down 6 lbs the next?

5/9/2007 8:36:02 AM

^ yeah, scales are pretty unreliable... I have two different ones that weigh me about 6 pounds apart. A physician told me that home scales can even be influenced by the temperature outside

5/9/2007 8:58:13 AM

i believe that. i weighed myself one morning, and then after i returned home from work, and i weighed 10lbs more than i did that morning.

that's a big lunch

5/9/2007 9:00:56 AM

Im sure it has to do more with digestion and water weight. I drank a shitload last night, so Im sure the dehydration is playing a large factor.

5/9/2007 9:04:08 AM

This shit is hard. I've been doing wonderful, but without seeing any noticeable progress (about 2-3 weeks), it is difficult. I really think it will be easy once I See that it is works. (ofcourse I know it works, but there is something inspiring about a pair of jeans fitting better)

5/9/2007 8:20:14 PM

Fuck yeah bitches. Hit the half way point today. 25lbs. lost, 25lbs. to go.

Even AFTER a 5 day vacation I managed to lose weight.

I fucking rock.

5/11/2007 9:52:55 PM

5/11/2007 10:01:38 PM

Well, I care.

5/11/2007 10:49:48 PM

keep up the good work

5/11/2007 10:51:05 PM

Big fucking deal for me. I was kind of skeptical at first when it came to getting below last years small weight, I blew through that no problem. Imagine a few months from now. Gah damn.

I'm fucking excited.

5/11/2007 10:52:50 PM

So the scale is saying that I've lost three pounds this week. Now I was on vacation and didn't do any weight lifting. I did workout however. I'm thinking some of that weight is muscle. Agree? Disagree?

5/13/2007 1:22:16 PM

probably not three pounds of muscle.

5/13/2007 1:41:33 PM

my guess is change in water weight.

5/13/2007 2:23:16 PM

Well I'm back from the cruise...

And I'm really happy I lost weight before I went!!!

I've added some of the pics to my gallery and I am pretty thrilled w/ how it turned out...

And now I have another reason to keep losing weight...

I got engaged on the cruise!!!

So the thread lives.

BTW, CONGRATS KIWI!!!

5/14/2007 10:26:05 AM

Dang girl, congrats!! That ring is gorgeous!

You look smokin' too.

Congrats!

5/14/2007 11:16:30 AM

haha thanks Kiwi and ambrosia!!!

I wanna get down in the low 120s before I get 'hitched'...

But that shouldn't be too difficult considering that won't happen till aug or sept of 2008.

Yeah the ring is..... damn.

5/14/2007 11:25:43 AM

How long did you two date before getting engaged?

5/14/2007 11:26:43 AM

15 months (and lived together 80% of it! ack!).

I guess it's not that long... but we've both had long relationships before each other and he is 27 and I am 23 so we know what the deal is and what we love in a relationship.

We'll be together over 2.5 years when we get married though.

5/14/2007 11:28:53 AM

living in sin!

5/14/2007 11:30:22 AM

Dustin Diamond does not approve

5/14/2007 11:30:27 AM

haha I saw Dustin Diamond in a porno.

5/14/2007 11:31:36 AM

Cute. Good luck to both of yous! Getting married on a cruise mayhaps? ha Maybe honeymoon?

I wonder how shocked I'll be when the dude proposes lol. I don't know how I'll react.

I know some boys that need to get on the ball here.

5/14/2007 11:32:17 AM

haha How long have you been w/ your man?

5/14/2007 11:33:16 AM
