Getting into shape

Seriously, you have to quit drinking all of that milk. Only 1 glass a day. Eat proteins and vegetables.

Your health is going to be in serious danger quicker than you think.

Dude. One 8 oz glass of milk a day and don't replace the rest with soda. You're looking at diabetes if you don't stop.

Let's be honest 8oz is not a realistic goal.

Just stop drinking it altogether. Soon it won't be a part of your daily routine anymore and your life will be better. Are you saying you can't quit drinking milk? We're talking about milk still, right? As someone who's had to quit a lot of [expletive] lately, I feel like Bob Saget in Half Baked reading your posts.

I'm not sure I could give up milk. I'm only a two glass a day drinker but I gotta have it when I wake up. What else do you drink with breakfast?

My heart goes out to Dreamer as well.

Eat more food. Drink less soda/milk. How about a few eggs and veggies in the morning?

I was visiting my Dad a couple of weeks ago. He gave me a picture from when I can gather, is sometime between 2005 and 2007. I've added a couple more from this afternoon. Makes a satisfying before and after.

Damn dude, that's awesome! Stupid personal question. Is loose skin a problem? I've lost a decent amount of weight. I have a ton to go, but still I've got a couple spots in my arm pits that kind of bother me a bit because of loose skin. I'm just wondering how much worse they will be when I do drop more.

I honestly can't remember the last time I had a glass of milk. We're talking a decade plus.

Can't speak to you milk weirdos, but to cut out soda I suggest carbonated water/seltzer/club soda with a wedge of lime.

Thanks! Haven't had an issue, but I lost the weight pretty slowly, over about 3 years. I still have a pouch on my stomach, which I've read is pretty common for people who were fat for a long time. (I've basically been fat my whole life) Takes a long time to trim that out. It doesn't get in the way though. I think it helps that I've been doing a lot of bodyweight strength training. I really think the strength training (increased muscle) and slow and steady weight loss made a difference in preventing loose skin.

That pouch is last to go, first thing to come back.
I prefer to call it a strategic energy reserve.

Diddy. Seriously. Quit the milk and drink some unsweetened ice tea or something.

Coffee.

Beer is also an acceptable subsitute.
