KUDOS!! to all who have and to those who are trying also.

 

It is amazing how outside encouragement goes such a long way.

 

Now, to the above posts ... surprise! No comment. There is so much good posted above that to pick on it for 1 or 2 things i would be nuts.

BUT....I can't help mentioning that, in one's race to cut calories, it is imperative NOT to skip meals. The body needs calories in order to maintain metabolism which in turn will help burn more calories. If you cut them you then slow your own metabolism and GAIN weight.

Thus, calories in ... calories out doesn't always work.

As far as exercise is concerned, brisk walking is the best medicine! Anywhere, anytime.

 

No more pearls of wisdom here ... you are all "weigh" ahead! Keep at it!

Whippy, the error of my ways always Taste SO GOOD ! :p:p:p

 

And FYI, Cheetos are even MORE delish when you dip them in Cheese Fondue made from Velveeta...

OMFG it's HOPELESS!!! I have not touched Velveeta since the sixties! What else might you dip in said fondu to make it all the more tasty or is that the one thing that you prefer not overly seasoned?!?!

Pearls of wisdom are always good funguy, but at this stage of our lives we ALL know WHAT to do, it's just a matter of committing and doing it... I always wait to finish all the bad stuff in my kitchen instead of just throwing it in the trash. I cant bear to be wasteful, but on the other hand being Fat aint that great either.

Well you can always regift it to your favotite working guy as a gratuity! Hopefully, not someone who monitors this board however! Just trying to help!

I always found it funny that it takes 30 minutes or more of cardio to burn just a measly 100 calories yet you can gain the 100 calories and then some by stuffing something in your mouth in a matter of seconds :p

 

Losing weight is 80 percent diet and 20 percent working out. Just replace the soda,juices and sweet drinks for water and stop eating bread,pasta, rice etc and you should see a big change in a month or two. Even though working out is 20 percent is best to do it as well in combination to dieting so your body doesn't sag once you lose the weight. Use the machines at the gym and the free weights and your body will look tight and firm.

 

Cut out bread, pasta, rice, etc ? What's left, a fucking lettuce leaf ? That's NOT living, unless you pour a ton of Catalina dressing on it and add some parmesan croutons and Honey walnuts.

That's just torturous... You can always eat just ONE nut, but that would be like sucking on one testicle... Fuck it, go for TWO....

Really? Reminds me of those shops that sandwich ice cream and fudge sauce between two chocolate chip cookies. Then they act surprised when you go in and only want a cookie. Why dilute the taste?

Just the label: drenched in chocolate, sprinkled with .... sugar.

 

He's really cute too--and he will ask me later how I liked them. But bitch had to say, "it's healthy--they're almonds!" Seriously?!

 

Let's see if I can eat just two...

Well there is nothing better for lowering cholesterol naturally than almonds. Plus, they are a great source of the omega three fatty acids that I mentioned above as being essential to eating healthily. Perhaps if you use a blowtorch to remove the coating it might make it all work! If not, at least the there's sea salt and the sugar ain't high fructose corn syrup! Again just trying to help. Oh, and dark chocolate has its benefits...

OK, I had six and I am done (about 100 calories total, 8g fat, 9g carbs [6 of that sugar]). I will pass the rest on.

Liking the sandwich instead of the little cookies doesn't make one a connoisseur.

That's a start!

 

Now tonight you go home and have a roasted chicken breast, a dry baked potato, steamed plain broccoli, and a salad with a balsamic vinaigrette made with extra virgin olive oil. Later for a snack some plain Fage (the best brand out there IMHO) Greek Yogurt with some unsweetened natural apple sauce mixed in. That's more or less what I'm doing and I'm not cheating myself on quantity. It the quality that counts.

 

One can always have their fun in other ways!

And I can just imagine how cute you would look sucking out a Crab leg... Worth the price of admission. :D

Well then have two potatoes! That's what I decided after posting! You have my permission! ;)

But....if I have permission, does that mean I don't get flogged? :(

Boring and Bland. I'm having 2 Mama Celeste Personal pan WHITE pizzas, and a Red Velvet iced cupcake from Crumbs bakeshop... If I shit it all out, I cant possibly gain any weight ! :rolleyes: Whippy, seems to me you are eating merely for sustenance, not enjoyment, cause there aint NOBODY that enjoys eating a dry baked potatoe, a plain steamed veggie, and salad without a creamy dressing.... I don't buy it Pinocchio !

Eirher way you get flogged! Heck it is the job of a responsible Dom to do to a boi that which he desires and craves!

 

Of course if you eat any more nuts... those in the bag that is... the flogging might be a bit more intense, but heck you take your chances and things get dished out accordingly!

I march to the beat of a different drummer. And the operative words in that sentence are beat and drummer.
