Or at least a link to them.

Yeah, I think that would be awesome man.

My big thing for you, is don't beat yourself up too much. In your case slow and steady is what will win the race. Beating the hell out of yourself is the fastest route to just giving up on it. I think you'll get it though. We're all older and wiser.

Does everyone want to just do monthly weigh ins? I'm going to create a spreadsheet that tracks everyone's weights.

My thing this year is going to be alcohol consumption. I'm STILL drinking at least 1000 calories a day in grain alcohol. 5-6 days a week. I gave up pot because frankly, it stopped working. Clear eyes, full heart...easier said than done. I'm not a drunk yet, I mean of course I am, but what I mean by that is I'm confident that I'll get past it sooner versus later. I don't live for the shit. The crazy thing is, I've still lost weight. That's how horrible I was eating.

One of my major weight loss strategies is to cut out alcohol altogether during the week and not drink much beer on weekends. One of the reasons I'm so heavy is allowing beer to creep back into my weeknight drinking. 3-4 beers a night (instead of two neat whiskeys) will pack on the belly.

Anyway, no drinking during the week for me unless there's a good reason.

That's legit. I'm off work until March so it's not like I need to be on some schedule.

I like to get my drink on as well. My problem is not only do I consume a shit ton of calories drinking, but grain alcohol also makes me extremely hungry.

I'm lazy too. The trick is to find easy things to make.

I used to do the oatmeal thing. Still do occasionally. Lately though I've been going with Greek yogurt for breakfast (dannon oikos vanilla, no fat high protein). Every few weeks I buy a giant bag of whole frozen strawberries. I like fresh better but I don't have to worry about frozen going bad in the fridge... Just gotta thaw and slice the berries mix in a few tbsp of yogurt and if I feel like it a little cereal (I go with one of the Quaker natural varieties when I do). And that's it, 5 minutes of prep nothing to clean but a bowl. Change berries when I get bored.

Eat eggs a fair amount too, along with Turkey sausage for more protein. There's all kinds of good brands out now. Takes longer than yogurt, but still easy prep and cleanup.

Lunch time I usually go with fish or chicken. Steam them along with some frozen vegetables, same logic as fruit - frozen doesn't go bad if you, say, get lazy for a night and go out. Also like a foreman grill for the meat. Easy to use, low stress.

For dinner I usually eat salad (sometimes just lettuce) and occasionally soup. I'm trying to stay away from sugar at night so less fruits after noon, more vegetables.

Still working on dropping soda. Drink lots of water, it's really important for you. Might want to watch the drinking. I've lately gotten on a hard cider kick and that shit' s 200 calories a bottle...

Basically figure out stuff you like that's available even when you're lazy as shit...

Just finished a foot long subway sandwhich. Eating healthy is a huge challenge for me. It was grilled chicken so I have that going for me.

I did only eat half my baked lays bag, got an iced tea.

I ate an Apple and some pineapple for breakfast.

I remember back in the day when I was cutting hard I'd eat a 12 inch sub from subway every day. The subway Club. That was all I ate too. Half at a time. Cheap, lazy way to lose weight.
