after i drank my decaf,and a quart of water,i put on some long pants,and headed out....i didnt like it none,cause i got started so late,but that mountain was on my mind all night..i had to conquer,or be conquered...at the very top of this mountain,i found some pretty good walkin,you cant go too fast,because of all the fallen trees,limbs,etc,that you encounter,so i just took what the trail gave me...a couple times,i stopped to check out different rock formations,the bigger trees,etc.....after walkin the ridge,for about a mile,i descended the mountain,and wound up in some farmers cattle and hay field...found a good sized pond,that looked like it might have some catfish in it...hmmmm......on my way back,instead of climbin back up the mountain,i sort of went around it,and found a path of lesser resistance,than the top of the ridge..by this time,id been out for 1 hr 20 minutes,and those long bluejeans were gettin heavy...luckily,this trail came out,on the other side of the road,from where i started...2 HOURS ON THE NOSE...YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHA...TAKE THAT,FAT CELLS...by the time i got home,it was 90 degrees,and i was a thirsty mfer.......aint nothin like,findin a new place to walk.......'keep the continue'
GREAT THREAD, very motivational. JUST FOUND it after I pooped GREEN (maybe my all protein diet>?) this morning and wanted to see if this was common and asked in this forum.
Well I went to a weight-loss doctor here in FLA on FRIDAY Aug 10 and was weighing 283.5, (I'm 6'3") they give pills and a B-12 shot in the arm one week later I'm at 270 (same scale official weigh in) when I weighed in at the office. 13.5 lost in one week I felt so good (the most they ever saw lost was 15 and they have seen 100's of patients there), I will have weekly visits and weigh in's. I'll update hopefully with success. CONGRATS TO YOU. My goal is 235 Short term. Then hope hope to gradually lose another 10 thereafter.

parked at the bank,and did my usual routine..55 minutes.....i got out there late,(10 a m),but it wasnt too hot,and the humidity was 50%.....only reason i didnt go back to the mountain,was i didnt want to put on those heavy pants..hehehe....too hot..plenty of time for that this fall....'keep the continue"
5teamparlay,i appreciate your well wishes,but i must ask you one thing...how is takin a pill.helpin you to address your problem? what i found out was,i needed to learn how to eat right,and exercise...i tried the pills,but it didnt work for me...as soon as i quit takin them,my appetite came back,and i ate everything in the fkn house...the problem was,i hadnt identified the problem,much less,dealt with it......., found out, i was addicted to sugar,thats why my appetite was never satiated....id eat all day,every day,and i was never satisfied.....all that stopped.when i dropped sugar,and white flour,from my menu.....now that my body is back closer to normal,i can eat anything i want,because ive learned how to balance what i eat.....i have icecream or cookies,occasionally,but its after ive ate my protein and veggies......ftp,losin that weight is great....please take advantage of your momentum,and get out yer walkin shoes....i cant imagine, how dull, life would be,without my daily stroll..its as much a part of my life,as eatin and sleepin....'keep the continue'
The pills are just first to get one started, some multi-vitamins (as one is on a low carb diet to start off). One also has to drink a gallon of water a day as well at first. After that you are on the ZONE diet. Don't feel a bit hungry and have tons of energy. But the program does stress exercise as well. I have a pool and also love long walks with my 2 year old in the stroller.
Very motivated at this point. Will give an update friday.
