50 diets.

that's a lame fiddy spot.

:2 cents:

I need help in the worst way... The first thing anyone will notice at the next show is how much weight I put on.. I can't believe it myself, it happened so fast I thought.... then I looked back at pics over the last two years and it was a slow decline.

I dont get fat like traditional people... I have typical webmaster body.. curved shoulders.. weak core and a ethopian belly. I look bloated...

It's overwhelming and embarrassing at the same time..

Does eating raw, fresh no breads and having one cheat day a week seem like an acceptable route?

Eating healthy is never cheap it seems.. its 9$ for a salad and 3 bucks for a 1/4 burger with the works. Is their such thing as cheap healthy eats?

Now that I live in Florida, I can't hide it behind clothes.. I never thought this day would come but its here and it came fast... It's all I think about..

This is going to be more of a mental challenge than just a physical one..

get a treadmill or hit the gym or walk 30 min a day and do some exercise to strengthen your core...I feel much better when I do that stuff or sure

On buying bread here is a tip. The keyword you are trying to find is 100%. Don't fall for only the words "whole wheat" or "all grain". They're allowed to say whole wheat even if only less than 1% of the ingredients is whole wheat, it's a simple marketing fact. 100% is what you need to find, and then check the ingredients and you'll see.

You just explained half of your problem. You eat out too much. Those nine dollar salads are a good way to trick all of the ladies at lunch into spending too much money trying to get "healthy" while they drizzle on their nasty salad dressing.

if any of y'all have not tried ezekiel bread, give it a whirl, it's fucking delicious! i make pb&j with it, simple peanut butter (no sugar added) and sugar-free jelly.

nspired by the Holy Scripture verse Ezekiel 4:9., "Take also unto thee Wheat, and Barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and Spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make bread of it..."

Ezekiel 4:9® Organic Sprouted Whole Grain Products are:

Flourless,
Organic,
Complete Protein,
and Sprouted Whole Grain

We discovered when these six grains and legumes are sprouted and combined, an amazing thing happens. A complete protein is created that closely parallels the protein found in milk and eggs. In fact, the protein quality is so high, that it is 84.3% as efficient as the highest recognized source of protein, containing all 9 essential amino acids. There are 18 amino acids present in this unique bread ? from all vegetable sources ? naturally balanced in nature.

Ezekiel 4:9® Bread, made from freshly sprouted organically grown grains, is naturally flavorful and bursting with nutrients. Rich in protein, vitamins, minerals and natural fiber with no added fat. Try it served warm to release its exceptionally rich nutty flavor.

This Biblical Bread is Truly the Staff of Life

Well, who knew GFY was full of diet connoisseurs hahaha. Joking aside, thanks a lot for the pieces of advice. I knew most of it but sometimes it helps to get opinions.

What I think I will do is to continue my workout routine but concentrate even more on cardio doing interval training. I will stop alcohol for 2 weeks as well as simple carbs or anything white (rice, bread, pasta). Will try and keep fats down to good fats, such as ones from avocado, nuts, fish, etc. Finally, increase water intake to keep hydrated and ward off being hungry. Check the scale and inches in two weeks and adjust the diet if I'm not getting the results I want.

for interval training, you can strap your rug rat to your back and do wind sprints! helluva workout right there!!!

I just pictured that and it's sadly so true :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Read up at some of the advice on this thread. Nothing comes easy in life especially being in shape. The key is to do some sort of physical activity. Take advantage of being in a tropical weather and sweat it out by taking 20-30 minute walks at least 3 times a week. I've seen some of your pics, you're not so much overweight but rather out of shape. Once you get used to some physical activity, you can introduce more.

As for cheap food, if you eat out a lot, just be mindful of what you order. If you have to have fast food, get a grilled chicken sandwich and if you must have the bread, take out the top or bottom piece (it's my little cheat trick on myself). Start easy and work from there, I guarantee you that once you see a bit of results you will be more motivated to do more.

Hahaha I'm sure he would not mind that one bit either :1orglaugh

That looks super yummy.

here is some more infos on HIIT that eric wrote about, it might help you.

Most McDonald's salads have more fat in them than the quarter pounders.

Cutting back on portions, eating out and fast food is the easiest way to drop ten pounds.

It's still early in the day for me.

I've never had the ezekiel bread, but I do make my own bread and use the grains I've steeped from making beer. I like getting mileage out of things like that where most people throw the grains away, compost them, or feed them to their dogs.

The only thing with making your own breads is you have to eat it, lol. There's no preservatives, so you can't wait too long.

Cardio is important, especially if you are older than 30.

Low carbs and mainly veggies. Eat low calorie WHEAT bread if you have a sandwich but no gain carbs after lunch. Keep on the protein and low fats and you will lose it quickly

i figured youto be a morning gal! :pimp

I started cutting back on animal products about a year ago and weight dropped off immediately. I lost 20 lbs and have kept it off very easily. Instead of eating meat 3 times a day, I eat it *maybe* 3 times a week. Replaced milk with almond milk and stopped eating cheese. Animal products are full of fat & cholesterol, both of which are bad for you in abundance. 80% of my diet now is plant based. Veggies, fruits, nuts and whole grains. I still spring for a burger or pizza once in a while but for the most part, I stay away from the junk :thumbsup

Very simply, ONLY keep good foods in the house and ONLY eat out once per week. I admit I have NO will-power and hate working out. This is the only regimen that works for the long haul. Been doing it for 15 years and works like a charm!

I buy 'fourless' bread only

Relatively new supplement called GABA. NOW makes a 500mg with b6 version.

Take two-three times a day, every few hours or so...
It has same triggers as chocolate...

You will eat half as much and be twice as full...I am on High BP meds. First my doc said huh? Then saw I had lost 50 lbs in 6 months, doc took a second look. BP is also coming way down...wife is helping to retrain me for eating habits...

You can probably lose the 10 in a week or two with no stress...You will just eat less.

HCG is a pain in the ass but it can help through plateau breaks and weight loss jumps that stay off.

I'm not against pills and short cuts but as of today (note date and time) I am not desperate enough to try them. I'll do diet, exercise and a shit ton of will power first and if that doesn't work then there will be another thread hahaha

no carb , no sugar for 3 weeks (or very little), then keep them low, works 100%

I've got the dolce diet that MMA fighters use to cut down and get to weight in 2 months.

I'll send you the link on FB. :)

It also kicks up testosterone, and makes testicles start working again after a cycle. :)

coke habit

Best diet ever:

It's easy. It's one simple step.











Stop eating so fucking much.



Or try Hemp Hearts and cut out all wheat products. I lost almost 40 lbs in a month

this is a winner for sure. i call it "no white foods" so no sugar, added salt, bread, pasta, rice, milk, cheese (no orange either). i had to follow this to drop the 7 i wanted to and also do this:

*no booze (yes i cheated and always paid for it cuz booze makes me forget not to eat french fries)
*no more than 1300 calories/day (was told no more than 1100 but couldnt do it)
*workout 5 days/week and take long walks/bike rides the days you skip

on lowering the calories to not exceed a certain amount, the only...only...only way it worked for me was very boring but i had to eat the same exact things every day unless i wanted to count them up like a freak. i am not good at keeping track of what i eat or counting them up so i just came up with the foods i could have all day that totalled 1300 calories and ate that every day. small meals/snacks spaced 2-3 hours apart.

included in my tiresome diet were eggs, tuna, apple, salad, 1c raw veggies, fish or chicken

drink nothing but water or green tea....NOTHING ELSE!

also, don't eat past 6pm

good luck girl, you can do it :thumbsup

Butterfingers candy bars 24/7. Trust me on this.

if i were to grub down a candy bar, a butterfingers would make the top 2-3 list.

babe ruth bar is in it to win it for sure though.

top 2

Stick your baby in a pushchair and go for a walk a couple of times a day.

Look at the difference in CurrentlySober's before and after the treadmill pics if you can find them.

Fatty........

The Scarsdale diet :)

HCG is one of the biggest diet scams ever and HCG does absolutely nothing for you when it comes to fat loss. HCG diet is nothing more than a severely restricted ketogenic diet (low carb). The HCG itself does nothing for you other than bump up a guys testosterone a little bit which has indirect and very limited fat burning benefits at those levels.

:2 cents:

Here's a very important dieting tip and the one big problem I have no matter how healthy I'm eating ..... Eating out of boredom. Make sure you don't eat while watching tv, surfing the net, etc.

Don't you just miss Hunter S. Thompson? I'm so pissed that he killed himself, taking the coward's way out. HUNTER!!!!!!!!!! Grrrrr. Love him.

I am currently on a diet to lose 10 pounds. Its really easy, you just have to eat less.. people act like losing weight is sooo difficult when all you have to do is eat like 1000 calories / day instead of 1500 - 2000.

If you think its hard you're just weak. You're telling me its difficult to stop your arm from shoving shit into your mouth for a couple of months? It's not, just don't do it.

Has anybody said it yet? The diet of not eatting like a pig works best. ;)

did lowcarb back then. it was super effective, was only hard to bear for like a week. then carbohydrates felt like ballast, i could avoid them just easily.

eating 6 small meals a day and exercising; rinse and repeat - cheat on the weekend.

I think that is what led to those few extra pounds.

wahahaha yeah I missed that post but that's exactly what happened. It's all fun and games till one of them little fuckers get through :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

of course on not like that.. But you get the jist of what Im sayin...

Full of do as say not as I do tips from webmasters :)

great shout, but surely "you're the one for me fatty" would be more suitable here:1orglaugh

but shey i've been drinking green tea for the last 6 months or so and have shed about half a stone. gym/football about 3 times a week and pretty much eat what I want for main meals and dont know if its the tea but never fell the need to snack;)
