I also wanted to shout out to Aaron.

 

One time you mentioned you eat an apple and go for a walk to perk up.  It does work better than coffee.  I also have apples around and that helps when I'm not capable of controlling my sweet cravings..

 

In making progress on what I consider meager protien intake.  I used to force myself into 350ish grams a day.  I am not so afraid of losing gains if I go out drinking one night or miss a meal.  I try not to, but I don't get dizzy like I used to if it was more than 3 hours and I haven't had >30 grams of protein.

350 grams of protein a day? sounds like alot? unless you are 6 ft or taller and have alot of muscle mass?

normally at most you want to eat 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. a better number is really around 0.6 grams of protein per pound of body weight.

idk, i feel like theres more to this than i know though :]

sry i didnt read much about the situation previously

sweet cravings, sugar free gum can work. lasts a decent amount of time, and if mint, can make breath smell good

350 grams of protein was just enough at the time.

I was 6'2" 265 and had a little bit of muscle.  Competing in power lifting at the time so my body was pretty broken down every day.  Was losing weight at 6000kcal a day.

Still waiting for the bid on our house project.  Considering it has taken 3 weeks to put together I am scared.

So here is something that sucks.

I'm happy I lost 170 pounds.

 

What makes me sad is still not liking how I look and knowing that I didn't see how bad it was.

 

Stupid brain.

Stay strong man, don't stop.

I have a pretty good idea what it will be.  I just hope on its own it isn't a jumbo loan...

Seriously?  

My windows are about what most of my neighbors pay in real estate tax per year although a couple are worse.  One is nearly $110k/yr.

5000 SqFt at $300/sq ft = $1.5M so that isn't a good idea.
