Well, they even have an event planned here in the Netherlands for 2013, like 20 minutes away from here. Awesome. Thinking about joining in.

I informed my husband that I wanted him to do this with me and he thinks I'm insane! He said he'd have to train for a year lol. I told him, finE!!, you can watch me! don't know if I'll be ready in a year, but I'm gonna try.

Date: 3/1/12-

I'm already in one weight lost comp but it ends in May and I'll still be cutting.

Height: 6'2"
Starting weight: 243lbs
Goal: 210lbs

I'm coming for ya Metspride!

Date: 3/5/12-
I like tough competition....i want u guys to drive me, which is what im here to do to you. Since im.comin off a 3 month cut, I wont have that innitial first big month, so I gotta push harder. Goal weight is 205-210 by end of comp and 195 by august 1st

My weight was down to 231lbs this morning... Where are at Met????

[bongfong]

so i went out with my buddy tonight, and he wanted to stop and get food from Wendy's. Asked if i wanted anything and i declined. He had this to say...

"I'd rather be fat and happy, then skinny and miserable"
so i replied
"I'd rather be in shape and happy, then fat and ignorant"

I know how you feel. I get the same sh!t from my friends too. I feel like I'm the only one whose mood doesn't hinge on eating junk food sometimes. Cutting is hard when everyone around you is criticizing your diet and telling you to eat more.

[zeroengine]

Agreed. My mom and fiance keep trying to get me to eat desserts and stuff, it's hard to resist. :O

I've been sticking to my guns though, down to 202 this morning. 2 more pounds and I'm past my July 15th goal, and only 10 pounds from my original October goal. It's crazy how fast it's gone. On the downside, I was hoping I'd be slightly under 15% body fat by 200, but as of today I'm at 16.6%. Gonna end up skinnier than I'd wanted.

SCREW what they say.

[Justin23454]

thats how it goes, when your losing weight, everyone says you need to eat more. Its because america/world is accepting/thinking over weight as the norm/healthy. It does suck though when family and what not always tell you your to skinny and to eat more :/

That's why when I get down to a ripped 195 and my fam or friends start saying that sht I'm just going to pull my shirt off, zyzz pose and say "you mirin brah??".

They are just trying to make themselves feel better about their current state by trying to convince their self you are miserable all the time for not being able to eat like a frkin cow. When really deep down inside they want what you have, but are too undisciplined and lazy to go get it!

[Metspride129]

A of thismorning, i hit 227.8 =)

i took quite a bit of time off though to get my mental stability back. pretty much the entire month of April i maintained, and restarted cuttin hard the 1st of the month.

Almost spit out my coffee LOL

[DSUP]

I can still feel it but, at the very least, it doesn't seem to be getting any worse. I'm going to stay the course and stay out of the gym until I'm 100% or at least until Monday.

In the meantime, I'm going to concentrate on keeping my diet straight which, at this point, means making sure that I don't under-eat. The scale this morning indicated that I might end up with a three-pound loss this week (from last week's weigh-in). That is faster than I want it to be. I have a hard time not getting carried away once I get into a cut.

Have I told you how proud I am of you lately? I see your numbers are continuing to drop even though you're training so hard which tells me that you're keeping your diet tight. Good work!

[Mover50]

Back in town again, looks like I have some reading to do to catch up with you all. I decided not to count calories while in Europe so I enjoyed all the food, drinks, desserts, candy and chocolate that was available. I gained plenty of weight during the trip, I'm now back on IF and low carb/cal diet, I am very hungry now. My eating window opens in 13 minutes so I think I can make it.

[Sinaku5]

completely unrelated, but does anyone have a 3d ps3 display?

I'm really contemplating getting one before I buy uncharted 3, killzone 3, or resistance 3, as I know those are all 3d games.

[theconomist]

202.4 right now

4.4 to go.

This feels like cheating lol.

Started at 217.8

Still not a single minute of cardio was done.

[DSUP]

Amen! I refuse to do any cardio on this cut just to see if it can be done!

I have one, but I really only use it for the fullscreen multiplayer. My brother plays 3d though, and really likes it.

[PunkyCindy]

it's so peaceful that time of morning

just take care of yourself and for the love of all that's holy, eat enough!

thank you. I'm losing slow, but that's ok with me. Diet isn't as hard as it used to be. I've had a few rough nights being hungry because I didn't manage calories very well, but it's getting easier. My biggest problem now is wanting to go to the gym on my non gym days. I want to go everyday because I feel the best when I go....mentally....and I miss it on my off days. Don't want to give up full body workouts though, and I know I need to rest. grrrrr.....

I used to enjoy cardio...what was wrong with me...I do about 10 - 20 min after lifting....not today though, I bucked the system and just lifted. I've gone to the dark side hehehe

Amen! I refuse to do any cardio on this cut just to see if it can be done!

it can be done apparently 'cause you're doing it.

[magdallena]

Welcome Friday .
My weight is 155.8 lbs. I am happy about my results. I am waiting yours and I am waiting Kelekin................

[magdallena]

This was my breakfast: cottage with walnuts and berries. I love it .

[magdallena]

I made a cheesecake 2 days ago. I taste it yesterday. One piece. I love cooking interesting things. Cheese cake is not a bulgarian food. I made it for the first time and I like it.

[magdallena]

I really hate the time when you all sleeping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DSUP]

Good morning, Magdallena. I'm not sleeping yet but I'm on my way. The cheesecake looks good. What is the crust on the bottom made of?

[magdallena]

What is the crust on the bottom made of?

I use 2 pacets of biscuits cacao and 125g butter. I smash the biscuits to crumbs and add them to the melted butter.

[Earlbolus]

Weigh-in: 218.0, that's a gain of 0.8 lbs

Expected this, because of graduation party and national holiday (night + day) I had been drinking alcohol like four days in a row. Plus a gym rest week, plus just really eating the hell I wanted. I'm actually surprised it didn't go up more. It was nice to have a complete week off.

From today I am back to work! As for today, still going good.
