ItBegins Posted July 30, 2015 Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 265lbs. Thats the weight I needed to reach before my depression, due to a hard break up with my ex gf, turned into a fiery rebirth. I am more motivated then I ever have been in my whole life. I would like to meet some people on here and get a good support group going to be there for me for my change. so I'm asking everybody and anybody to be here with me, as I will be with you. I WILL get back to 180lbs. There is no but, so who here is with me?!?!?!?! RAWR!!!!!!! 3 Quote Link to comment

Tanktimus the Encourager Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Just two. Go over to Steve's blog and check out the articles on eating. The best workout is the one you'll actually do. Don't worry if you like some stuff other than others and only stick with the fun ones. 2 Quote Current Challenge "By the Most-Righteous-and-Blessed Beard of Sir Tanktimus the Encourager!" - Jarl Rurik Harrgath Link to comment

Kyalia Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 RAWR!! Keep it up! I made my decision to lose weight and get fit just this last Sunday, and this morning I found out I've already lost 7 lbs. Do you have a goal for when you want to lose the weight by? When it comes to eating right, I'd suggest grabbing one of the calorie-counting Apps(of which there are a billion) if you have a smartphone. I'm currently using Lose It!, and so far so good. You enter in your weight and other info, then tell it how fast you want to lose the weight, and it gives you the number of calories you should eat each day. I'm not too heavily dependent on it, I try to make sure my calories are in the general ballpark, but I found that even just keeping a record of everything you eat in a day will help you cut back. 1 Quote KyaliaRace: Fire Elemental | Class: Assassin{ Level: 3 | STR: 7 | DEX: 1 | STA: 4.5 | CON: 3.5 | WIS: 2.5 | CHA: 5 }Chapter 1: Into the Fire ; Chapter 2: Fanning the Flames ; Chapter 3: Stormy Cs Main Quest: Reach 150 lbs by July 31st, 2016. 32.31%32.31% {Start: 215 | Current: 194 | Goal: 150 | Updated: 02/02/2016 }"The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire."~Ferdinand Foch Link to comment
ItBegins Posted July 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 I have started to journal everything. I havent made an actual calorie count yet because im going to be moving around a lot and I want to make sure I eat enough. Im eating tons of veggies, fish and meat. Thats all im allowing myself to eat. Took all the other food from my place and took it to the local food bank. Even the delicious bagels. I will look into a calorie counter to see what it has me at. I dont have a time frame per say, im just super motivated and dont think it will take long before I syart seeing the change. I really like the feedback. So thank you for taking the time. It means a lot to me. Self worth and friends is what I lack and why I joined this site. 1 Quote Link to comment
Kyalia Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Oh, journaling is cool. I actually started a normal Diary/Journal just to help organize my thoughts and wow has it been helpful. Yay for super motivation. If I was having any doubts about this, the change in numbers on the scale this morning blew them all to pieces. That's the best motivation I could hope for. I love giving and getting feedback, its fun to see peoples different views and get advice from everyone. 1 Quote KyaliaRace: Fire Elemental | Class: Assassin{ Level: 3 | STR: 7 | DEX: 1 | STA: 4.5 | CON: 3.5 | WIS: 2.5 | CHA: 5 }Chapter 1: Into the Fire ; Chapter 2: Fanning the Flames ; Chapter 3: Stormy Cs Main Quest: Reach 150 lbs by July 31st, 2016. 32.31%32.31% {Start: 215 | Current: 194 | Goal: 150 | Updated: 02/02/2016 }"The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire."~Ferdinand Foch Link to comment

Wyld Bill Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 I'm always glad to see someone with big goals. 265 to 180 will be tough but so very doable. I went from 250 to 190 using a lot of the resources for NF and help from my local support group at the gym. Focus on the journey and don't give up. The blood, sweat, and tears are going to be worth it in the end. 1 Quote Be excellent to each other. Link to comment
ItBegins Posted August 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Thanks Wyld Bill! Glad to see someone did something similar. Makes me feel less like a mad man. I'll keep you up to date.Jadynrayne thankfully a positive attitude is one of my consistent qualities. Im trying to do mostly paleo but I can't lie. I love jalapeno cheddar bagels. But now its just a sunday treat with my coffee. We got this friends. We all have our goals we arw about to smash!!!! RAWR!!! Quote Link to comment

melsuarez Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Definately keep up the journal... especially if it's a real life paper one... then you've got a resource to go to if/when things get a little slack.
