...my goal is to GAIN 1-2 lbs per week, preferably in body tone rather than fat but I'll take what I can get. I only weigh like 135-140 when I should be something around 150-160 if I recall right. My odd problem is that my metabolism is unusually quick to burn off everything, ironically meaning that I lose weight a lot quicker than I actually gain weight. Combine that with a physically demanding job, and you get a surprisingly underweight "stick folf" as I'm often called. T_T
I'm in. The only goal I want to reach isn't really a "lose X pounds" goal, it's more of a "get my lazy ass up early at least 3 times a week to run 2 miles" goal.
Oh, but I do want to avoid eating out every day for lunch, and that'll help me lose weight, too, so let's make that a goal as well.

I'm assuming you have the same body type/metabolism that I do. I've always been frozen at 120lbs even while eating tons and working construction. Once I started an actual weight lifting routine the changes were pretty fast, I shot up to 135 within a month. I am definitely not saying that diet isn't important either, what you eat goes a lot further than how much you weigh and you should pay attention to that regardless. But don't underestimate weightlifting whether you're trying to gain pounds or lose them.

I'm down to 210lbs ;]
Oh, I forgot to post my goal. I want to do at least 30 minutes of exercise per day, and limit myself to drinking mostly water, if not only water.
I believe you mean star trek, sir.Spoiler for:
I haven't eaten anything for a few days, I don't feel sick or anything and could probably eat something, but I've had no craving to eat (so I haven't)... Should I be worried?Not eating is always bad. Even if you're trying to loose weight, starving yourself just puts your body in "oh god I'm starving" mode, and that mode actually prevents weight loss, as your body retains MORE fat so it can survive longer with less food.
My mom can go days without wanting to eat. It isn't about whether or not you want to eat, it's about the fact that you know your body needs it. Never use a lack of desire as an excuse not to eat.Ahh ok, so it's normal? that's what had me worried.
Didn't run yesterday, but I did a 30 minute cardio workout from a video instead. It was too cold out. That's the excuse I told myself, but I tricked myself in to working out anyway.Good man

They're really not anti-gay apart from things the owner has said and misguided customers. Plus it's fucking delicious.Spoiler for:
Well, they do donate money to anti-gay causes, so it's a little more than that, but whatevs.
Edit - Scratch that, it appears that they stopped doing this. Fact checking, right guys?
You go Arlen!
I'll be honest I've flopped. bleh.
[insert every excuse in the book here]

I need to start running to improve my already fucked up heart so I don't have another heart attack.
They actually asked "What if you have kids that are allergic, what will you do?" And the answer they were looking for was "make our kids get horrible allergy shots every month instead of finding a better home for the dog."
