I am a tad over 6'3".

My wife said I have been doing well and said skip the Dr. this week (and don't pay him). I have an 11:00 AM apt. Friday and will update with the OFFICIAL WEIGHT. Hope I have maintained my last weigh in, and will get off the last 10 pound within a few weeks.

I have gotten all kinds of comments from co-workers about the weight loss and that makes me feel good.

THANKS FOR asking on progress it keeps me going and not slacking, will hit the gym tommorrow.

5TP, WTF are you eating?!? Are you controlling your calories at 10-12x your bodyweight? What's your typical diet like?

HOLY INSULIN SPIKE BATMAN!!!

Don't get on Herbalife. Just the fact that you are required to eat a 'large' meal at night gives me cringes.

If you can tell me more about your self, diet and exercise, I will gladly help but if you do, start a new thread, not in 5TP's

Have stopped going to the dr. I may go in for a pop in sometime in the future. I will use my own basic scale and occasionally updat.

TODAY 242.5

9 pounds to go, but I'm doing it all on my own.

What up 5team, nice job on the weight loss. What would you say is the key to your success; diet, exercise, supplements...ect? I ask b/c i recently had surgery and gained about 20 lbs since i couldn't do and physical activity. Now that i am trying to get back in shape it is not coming off as quickly as i expected.

#1 is diet- no beer, more meats and salads, less fried stuff and sweets.
I NEVER NEVER COUNTED calories etc. Used to be a McDonalds dollar menu junkie (those days are gone). At worst I'll get a Chilli from Wendy's or a side salad.
#2 is moderate exercise, walking, swim in my pool with my 2 year old.
#3 lots of water, like a gallon a day always have a bottle of it.
#4 supplements. Not too many, I go days without them. When working I'll pop an OTC upper from 7-11.
#5 support from others, wife making better meals others not pushing crap food to me, making better choices.


HAVE SOME MOTIVATION. I want to be a great role model for my 2 year old son. Eating shit, I'd never feed him isn't being a good one. He's never had a Coke, a twinkie and hasn't had fries in about a year. Am being asked daily: have you lost weight? I'll humbly respond (my fault I had too much to begin with). Getting new clothes etc is very satisfying as well.
