Dave O traineo Fanatic Posts: 159 Dave O Hey, I'm a lot like you...I need to lose weight. Started at 332 last year and my goal is 190-200. Since we're in this together, I'm asking for an agreement. If you agree to motivate me, then I will absolutely commit to not wasting your time nor energy, to take your tips and motivation seriously and of course reciprocate to ANYBODY out there that is looking for an honest, candid and sincere motivator while changing their lifestyle. Do we have a deal? (Handshake and a pat on the back!) My podcast/blog is really just a way for me to remain accountable for my weekly progress and for once and for all change my life FOREVER. I hope that I didn't bore you, but a profile (to me) is something that you can read, understand where I'm coming from and hopefully have a good, clear mental snapshot as to who is behind the typing. I hope to help as much as possible as well as get valuable tips and support from this site. Thanks for reading and I hope that you'll come to me when you need motivation or a little kick to get you going. Man, my fingers hurt. My goal weight is per month, NOT the overall goal. I find that monthly goals are a lot more motivating and recognizable rather than saying "I need to lose 90 pounds or so". Each month, my goal will change. BTW, my monthly goal is at least 8 pounds loss. Peace and lets get going!	# Posted: 19 Dec 2006 04:07 For those of you who may be dreading the upcoming Sunday and Monday "holiday", what's the plan? I'm having about 30 or so relatives over and I really don't want to advertise my program or diet. I always hated doing that. I like to keep it quiet. How are you going to deal with the temptations and what are some healthy alternatives? I plan on getting a lot of fresh veggies from Whole Foods and cutting them up by myself, offering nuts, diet soda... Besides that what else could I offer and have around besides the obligatory carb riden pretzels, chips and cheese? Of course for dessert, we won't even go there.
Leo - traineo Fanatic Posts: 113 Leo - Or, a little less about me.	# Posted: 19 Dec 2006 12:37 Y'know Dave, this got me thinking that there have been years when I had no idea that it was Christmas morning, or New Years. "Why are the streets empty and why is the supermarket closed?" Being a complete knucklehead is not a diet plan though. Veggies, hummus, babaganoosh. I dunno, maybe look into a cookbook for ideas. Oh, and how about just keeping busy playing host, a game of touch football or heading out for a walk. Here's some cookbook type links Mollie Katzen Online Laurel's Kitchen Greens Restaurant Books and Stuff Anyway, good luck!
Nathan P. Fitness Guru Posts: 498 Nathan P. I'm a 23 year old FFB (former fat boy). I'm a grad student at the Univ. of Phoenix. I was married on June 1st, 2007 by a wonderful supportive woman. I have always been the fat kid so now I've changed that. I started at 305. I lost 80 pounds and was at 225 after I was sick. From Jan 07 to Apr 07, I put on 25 pounds. I then started to lose weight again, but started doing it the right way. I am now 235 and leaner than I was at 225. I'm going to see how close I can get to a 6 pack, but eventually I'll start trying to put on some muscle. Then lean out again. Six-Pack would be awesome, I've never had one of those. So we'll see. (my photo is me at 305lbs. when i get a good pic of me now at my current weight, i'll post it)	# Posted: 19 Dec 2006 15:38 When I have to bring something I bring a veggie tray, and I throw out the dip...replace it with something better... When there are lots of people (i have around 50 on one side of the family that we see)...i just try to get caught up in catching up...keeps me talkin' and away from the food. Eat one plate and throw out the plate. I have to be in two different places on Chistmas day though, so we'll see how that goes.
NYCinephile . Fitness Guru Posts: 328 NYCinephile . My fitness regimen includes stationary cycling, light weight training and lots of walking around NYC. I'm a graduate of WeightWatchers and an enthusiastic advocate of its balanced approach to weight loss. I'm sure that I drink too much coffee and get too little sleep. :) My goals are to maintain my weight in a healthy BMI/BF % range and forestall the toll of advancing age. :) I think Traineo's established a great community and appreciate the support and information we share. You'll find me elsewhere on the Web at http://claimid.com/nycinephile	# Posted: 20 Dec 2006 11:26 Some WeightWatchers links regarding surviving the holidays.
