It only hurt once, from beginning to end.

Peace means having a bigger stick then the other guy.

Loosing may do little to your credibility, but quitting will destroy it.

Keep us up to date! I could use the motivation :)

The wife and I are also dieting - she down by 11 pounds, I am down by 8

Good luck Chris. I lost 50 lbs years ago and have been able to keep it off for 25 years. I lost it with the pickle diet. I used to come home from high school, sit down and eat a bag of potato chips or a box of cookies without batting an eye. I was working at a drug store that had a food counter. I started buying 3 lbs cans of sliced hamburger pickles and started eating them instead of the junk food. It worked. Now, I exercise 6 days a week and watch what I eat. I still have a soft spot for jelly beans!

I went from 250 to 190 after leaving the USMC.

Work, work, work at it! Determination'll pay off! :approve:

In such a short time that goal sounds very risky to me - good luck, Chris :approve:

Jeez, I saw that earlier and I thought you were giving away gadgets,

Take it easy, a goal is good, Maybe you should pitch a TV show, oh it's been done.

Funny aside, you seem to have a sensible plan! :approve:

80 lbs.. wow. Good Luck and God Speed! :) I am sure you will do it.

Good luck Commish! :approve:

Remember, the most painless way is the 10,000 steps per day challenge and it's much cheaper than gym fees.

Good luck Chris. I need to do the same but am insulin diabetic. Makes dieting more difficult. Anyone have a diet suggestion to help me out.

I have two suggestions :)

• Consider regular, low intensity exercise such as swimming or walking
• Substitute fruit for those comfort snacks

I have found that the most effective way of loosing weight (and keeping it off) is to burn calaroies rather than trying to avoid them.

Good luck with your efforts to loose weight, it's worth the struggle in the end. :approve:

Good luck Chris. I am rooting for you. My wife, who is 4' 11", lost 45 lb after the birth of our 3rd kid. She did Weight Watchers and started excersizing every day. She is now a hottee. You can also be a hottee!
