diet soda is bad for you, it wasnt the caffeine, cause i drink regular soda( coke with real sugar) and coffee often. it may have been aspartame

Nice Olhos! When somebody realizes that's when you know you're into it and getting results
almost to the point where you can just feed off of the progress and it no longer feels like effort, just excitement. Don't worry, a few bad days is something that's just going to happen, there's no avoiding it, what matters is how you adapt to them and keep going.dyingtolive

How is everyone? Hows your weight loss plans going?
Well just a recap, i started working out 2 months ago after a long hiatus. Missed a workout today, stomach took too long to digest, but have been dealing with skipping workouts better compared to the past. So im resting better. Dont know whether i should start eating more or eating less. Gain muscle or lose fat? Ive always had a problem eating more, since i am repulsed by fat, and dont have it psychologically in me to eat more. So as a result, i put on muscle so slowly. I am trying to lose fat and gain muscle. The slowness is frustrating and tiring. Ive been having thoughts about doing steroids but the side effects still scare me. But i know if i did steroids, i would be able to build muscle without putting on fat. Its about the 2 month mark where motivation seems to wane. So right now i feel like im in a hole again.
Well tomorrow is another day. ill aim to survive

The best way here is to just eat healthy and keep working out, doing muscle-building and cardio exercises. Of course you probably already knew that.
Definitely don't do steroids. Not worth it.

any workout that you can dance is awesome
i'm insulin resistent so i struggle to lose weight. I don't even bother trying anymore as long as I don't gain I'm fine.
After my divorce I lost about 10lbs from all the moving,unpacking,heavy lifting,etc... and since then i've kept the weight steady and haven't gained anything.
I think the number on the scale doesn't matter as long as you feel good and the doc says you're healthy.

I guess not too much, but I do need to loose some. Plus a little exercise is always helpful.

I've lost atleast 20kg's in the last year or so, I was over 130kg & am now 108 kg's, all I did was stop eating junk & snacking & replaced 2 meals a day with supplements & a nutritional chocolate milkshake Natural Factors, WellBetX PGX, Weight Loss Shake, Chocolate, Powder, 1.9 lbs (854 g) - iHerb.com , & I did this without exercising, maybe a little just to work up a sweat. Also not long ago I was stuck on 111kg's and heard that drinking half a lemon in water enables your body to lose weight, so in the place of water I would usually drink, I started drinking lemon in water and lost 3kg in about 3 days, apparently the lemon cleanses your liver and enables your body to be rid of (xenoestrogens) chemicals that put your body into fat storing mode & prevent you from burning fat, as estrogen is the stuff they inject chickens with to fatten them up, which also has the same effect on our body's.

congrats Poison! nice going. I hope u continue ur success!
Srij, working out and exercising can really be therapeutic. I think it is also the reason why i am surviving still. So if u do decide to do some exercising, i hope u enjoy the journey as well as t he destination, which is of course just a drop dead gorgeous body to go with your already gorgeous looks. Of course, you already look good as you are now.

I know I should be losing weight. Or at least try.
I'm 6 feet tall and I used to weight 165 pounds before starting college, when I was 18. Now I'm 21 and of course my body has changed, matured, but still, I weighted 175, more or less, then all of a sudden I became 190 and I feel I'll be 200 sometime soon if I don't change anything.

well congrats on the amazingness part and the weightloss... i have no doubts u are the real deal
the veggie subways though kinda surprise me.. coz my impression of bread + the veggies u find in sandwiches = fattening. + no protein. recipe for becoming fat.
