Weight loss support

I'm starting a weight loss support union to try to help myself, and others, lose weight.

I am starting this union because I'm trying to lose weight and I realized I need some support to help keep me motivated. I figure there are a lot of others on this forum that could also use a little help to lose some flab.

Post here or send me a pm if you would like to join.

I'd definitely join that! :D I've got a goal to lose 60 lbs., and it's always nice to have support.

I want to gain weight in bone and muscle mass. If I lost anymore weight I'd probably be a skeleton.

I need to lose a few pounds. I exercise, and I eat healthy, but then I sabotage it by eating a lot of junk in little spurts between the healthy stuff. It's all about self-control. If I can put down the bleeping chips, or not have seconds on the pasta, I will be alright.

No offense but I won't be joining. If I can't lose weight on my own, what good'll some strangers do on a board I will never visit?

PS: Do eat fish (or fish pills), do cardio AND weight training, and do not eat soy if you're a guy. I made that mistake.

I lost 30 lbs. this summer! Was getting up there in the 2-hundy club and needed to cut some weight big time. The hardest part is keeping it off now.

I'm all for the cause. Losing 160lbs myself, I think I qualify. Sign me up. :DHCMBusiness_89

ditto, I want to get down to my football playing weight. Need to go from380 to about 300...that'd make me much happier, then eventually down to 270. That is my goal.

shoot me an invite, TC!

Im loosing weight right now, it's not hard, but my body type is weird. I'm like a buff fat guy.-Big_Red-

yea. I like to think of myself as a really muscular dude in a fatman suit.

I'd join. I started p90x about 2 weeks ago and so far so good. My problem is eating right. I have motivation to do the workouts, just not eat as healthy as I should. Anyone have any good diet programs or books (or something like that to easily follow)?Victors_Valiant

A good rule of thumb is to shop around the edges of the supermarket... you know, not down the isles. Try to stay away from all of the pre-packaged stuff. The edges of the supermarket is where the fruits are, the veggies, meat, milk, yogurt, etc is. Another thing to do is substitute your whites for wheat. If you're going to make a chicken wrap or something, then use whole wheat tortillas. If you are going to eat maybe a bagel and a banana for a snack, then eat a whole wheat bagel. Whole wheat pasta, etc. Knowing what to eat really isn't that hard.

C'mon, you know you are supposed to eat fruits, veggies, and lean meats. The hardest part is sticking to it, because I will be the first to tell you that it is not easy. It is much easier to stick a frozen pizza in the oven than to prepare a healthy meal. But, it gets easier the more that you do it and becomes second nature.

If you succeed, will you have to change your username?

I actually lost around 50 pounds a year and a half ago. Feels great to get it all off once you put the work into it

That sounds like a fantastic idea. I don't need to lose much really, but I do need to get in shape and would gladly join.

I'll join. Completed P90X a couple of months ago, looking forward to P90X MC2.

I am pretty much in the exact same boat

The world supports weight loss. I'm tired of everything being "fat free" or "diet" or sugarfree" (which is worse for you, because the artificial sweeteners are basically chemicals). Then there's the numerous "Weight watcher" things around. So it should be pretty easy.

Went from 175 starting college to 195 by last semester and now I'm back at 170 again it's not hard I just ran a 2 miles every day and worked out. I still have flab though no abs or anything :( btw I wasn't really on a diet or anything

Okay I've sent out the invites. If anyone who wanted one, didn't get one, PM me. I don't want to miss anyone.BigSexy63

I weighed about 232 pounds back in April, and down to about 188-189 right now. Hoping to get down to about 170-175 in a month and a half - two months which should make me pretty lean. From there I want to start going to the gym to bulk up and add 7 or 8 pounds of muscle to my frame.

I've been a little bit chubby all my life, and even when I started trying to lose weight I thought it was hopeless. But surprisingly, once you get into the groove it couldn't be any easier. Just exercise and eat right, no shortcuts.

Edit - Oh yeah, and you can send me an invite.

I want in. I'm 110lbs and want to lose at least 30lbs or more.
