If anyone can honestly say they'll never eat pizza or have a soda the rest of their life, that's nice me saying that is a lie and I know that. If you really like things it's best to try to figure out a way to work them into your diet.

Pizza is high in fat, and therefore, an excellent thing to eat

Isn't it also a high carb food seeing as it has a crust?

I usually allow myself a cheat food on sunday and it's almost always pizza since it's far and away my favorite thing.

It depends on the pizza. The pizza I eat is 70% fat calories (from the cheese).

Laz was saying sugar is the devil and I was just pointing out that unless you're eating protein or fat what you're eating is breaking down as sugar.

Sure, but doing it slowly = less insulin, which = less stored as fat.

For the last 6 days the only carbs I've ate are the salad I had for lunch today...I went from 211.8 to 206.4....that's nearly a pound a day.

**** dude. It's about time for some new pics, don't you think? We've all seen round-faced Mecca...

I have a big beard right now so you probably couldn't tell the difference...

The sad thing is I didn't gain hardly any weight in my face so you don't see much difference there but I can wear smaller clothes now.

Laz doesn't like me because I know more about the draft than him.

Anyone else still battling the bulge? Here, hopefully, you can find more encouragement and tips on diet and exercise. Feel free to talk about discouragements, setbacks, frustrations, etc as well. We're here to help...at least I am.

Good thread Luv.... however, If you would stay away a tad from your Dads you might loose a tad more.

You have done good, but listen to your heart and you will make it!

I want to get down another 8 pounds. As part of that, I did a 15.5 mile jog today up a smallish mountain. (I'm in Breckenridge with the wife on a business trip.)

I don't usually go on trails by myself, so I brought my cell phone. Along the way, I took some pictures. It's not bad to do a long jog with scenery like this:

(The little rock on the big rock that's a different color was the rock I carried with me in case I got attacked by a mountain lion or something.)

Starting shedding some pounds after the Summer ended. Went to a oatmeal/protein smoothie for breakfast, piece of fruit for a snack mid morning, take my lunch to work everyday which is a salad, fruit, jello, and eat a modest dinner of grilled chicken/fish/beef with veg. Not only have I dropped from 183 to 165, but my meals hover around $2-$3 apiece, a real money saver. The only thing I miss is cracking beers at 10:30 am on Sunday's and Chikn Bizkits patna. FWIW.
