    For a confidence boost you are 1/2 way compared how long it'd take me to get to 200.

      Yeah, but we started at different places. I've started at around 240-245. You've worked a lot longer and harder (teehee) than I have and you should be commended for it.

        Yeah but it's also exponential. I'd be crazy to think it's going to take the same amount of work and time to get to 200.

        Actually, I think I'd be crazy even thinking i could get to 200. I was 210 when I was playing little league..

            Beat me too it.

            Life's too short to give up everything we love and unless you are shooting for some crazy low bodyfat % it's really not needed either.

            Besides it's be proven in numerous studies that people who drink actually live longer than those that don't.

              Weighed in just shy of 276. I have weighed the same now for 5 out of the past 7 weeks at my weekly weigh in. So I guess you could call that hitting the wall! Need to find some motivation to get moving again.

                I'm not on any kind of weight loss kick, but I've went from 228 down to 217-218 (depending on the time of day) in a little over a month. The only thing I've done is cut out out most of my soda and I'm back in the gym 4-5 days a week. I still eat what I want, for the most part (I just cut out most snacks). It's not bad considering I'm 6'3" and I'm not really watching weight because I'm working out... just thought it was crazy how fast I dropped without changing much besides what I like to do (which is going to the gym).

                  Yeah same here. My weight has been stagnant for a few months now. I think I am getting fitter thanks to insanity but i want the scale to drop. I've been around 200lbs for too long now (I'm 5'11) and my goal is a pretty lean 180 or around there.

                  That's a huge thing right there. I think if you cut out all full sugar versions of soda (we call it soft drink here in Australia) the world would be a much healthier (and less fat) place.

                  Nice work man, lifestyle changes are the way to go.

                    I weighed in this morning at 273. I'd love to see 269 soon, that'd be awesome.

                      What's your secret man? I know there are no secrets in weight loss but I am really just wondering what your gameplan is right now. I've been stagnant for too long and really just need something new to try. So lay it out there and I will give it a go. What are you eating and what are you doing? Thanks

                        Basically, I don't eat breakfast and during the week I eat a super light lunch so that I can eat what I want (to a degree) for a dinner and not have to worry. Just have to make sure that you get enough protein at dinner.

                        I also run on the treadmill during my lunch breaks as my local gym is a 2 minute walk from where I work. I haven't been able to for 2 weeks, because I have been working on the house then and after work until about 9 PM but I should be able to get back there next week.

                        I weighed in at 270 this morning, must be dehydrated.

                          I'm doing same thing basically, never been a breakfast person. Then some ramen or sandwich for lunch an whatever I feel like for dinner. That's more of the college life for me then an actual diet, but hey it's been working just gotta start taking my protein more as I haven't been to the gym due to NCAA and schoolwork

                              Well I gained to much wight real fast over the last year. I went on a strict diet as of a month ago, I mean strict. I got up to 260, now a month and little week after chaining my diet and drinking nothing but water all day long. I'm 238lbs now, I lost 22lbs in a little over a month. People say that's too much weight in that time, but I don't care, My goal is 200lbs.
