Not eating so much.Follow

This is correct, but also useless. Who wants to eat only that much?

Sorry, but following those guidelines don't result in small meals.

3 decks of cards for meat, 4 fists of carbs and a 12oz mug of fat.

I ran across this article on CNN tonight. Thought it might be of use to some folks. Why gamers are a great fit at the gym.


Could be kinda cool, IMO.

Apparently you can get in if you have a friend in the beta who still has one of the initial beta friend invites available, assuming you posted that article somewhere(like Facebook) and said friend saw it and offered you an invite.

I'll let you know what I think of the whole thing once I get into it a bit. Accepted a few quests so far, but sadly will not have time to actually do any of them til Thursday morning.

If you guys need invites, I have some spares. Send me your email in a PM and I'll email you the invite code.

Could be worse. You could be playing Dark Souls.

Exercise bike explodes, impaling you on a massive piece of shrapnel that pins you through the treadmill which scours off your skin while simultaneously electrocuting you, all because you mistimed a single pedal stroke?

One more month down. At 224 now. Dropped a pant size, gotta wear a belt to keep them up now. Keep this up I'll be close to 200 by the new year.

I'm a little concerned in the back of my mind, everything I read said you shouldn't lose more than 2 pounds per week. But I'm at about 3. I wasn't expecting to drop as much this month because after the last couple months I added 100-300 calories, to slow it down a bit. That and the last month at work I've been stuck in the front office programming rather than working out on the shop floor building things.

But, I guess as long as I'm not starving, it's ok.

Nice job, dude.

I gained 2 lbs over the Thanksgiving weekend However, since then I've been eating less, and (most importantly for me) drinking nothing. I played DD this weekend and still went out each night. Not only was it nice to not have a hangover the next day, it was a lot cheaper. My total bill for Friday night, for example, was $20; that was mostly for dinner, a cover charge, and one beer (which I bought for a friend). My apartment-mate, however, spent about $70 and slept in until almost 3pm the next day. He also ripped a sink off the wall of a Steak N' Shake, which was admittedly kind of awesome.

The results of the weekend seem pretty good. Was back up to 205 after Thanksgiving; as of yesterday, I'm down to 199. Hoping by the end of this week I'll be even lower. Still need to lose about 20 lbs to get back to a "normal" weight, but it's the first time I've been under 200 in the last half a year.

That was pretty much the story We all sat down to eat, he went into the bathroom, came back out a couple minutes later and calmly said "You should go look in the bathroom." The sink was off the wall but the pipes were still intact, so it was just sort of hanging off of it. We wanted to take pictures, but assumed it would probably be better not to have evidence of it.

We finished our meal and left about half an hour later.
