    The Losing Weight Thread

    Am on my 2nd round, so to speak, of a low carb diet. The first time around, I lost around 60 lbs, and this time, I'd like to drop around the same amount. Eventually, my desire is to move to a Paleo type diet, and get away from all highly processed foods. The plus side to doing low carb is...

    Hangout Pictures Thread!

    And this isn't quite a picture, but I thought I'd share it since it contains them. Did this in AfterEffects CS5 tonight and thought it turned out pretty good. The song is "Love of my Life" by Jim Brickman with Michael W. Smith on vocals, and is one of "our" songs. Engagement Photos, Vicky and Don

    Poll: Were you spanked?

    Again, not trying to get serious, or side track the thread (NOT a challenge), but I think it's highly based on the child. There was a point that I would have NEVER obeyed without this as a threat. *shrug* With that said, this would be a serious last resort use for me with my own child...

    If you scarf them all at once and don't share, the calories are less. True story. :cool:

    Weight Management Discussion, Support and Accountability Thread

    I tried it, but didn't like the interface. I've been using FitDay.com, which is working pretty good for me. Also allows me to add custom foods to my food log, which is pretty important for me since I eat a lot of whole foods and homemade stuff (I make homemade mayo, for example).

    Weight Management Discussion, Support and Accountability Thread

    Most likely, although the amount of carbs will naturally go up once I hit my goal weight. Will probably move to a Paleo diet at that point, as I am really trying to stay away from processed foods altogether.

    Any fellow Minecrafters here?

    Very much a Minecrafter. Ran a server for a large group for about a year and half, and still run a small private one. Perhaps some CF'ers would be interested in a CF-only server? Would be nice to have that environment.

    Weight Management Discussion, Support and Accountability Thread

    As Vicky said, I'm doing Atkins, and it's a fairly easy diet for me to keep accountability on. I have a degree in culinary arts, and absolutely love to cook and experiment, so it's fairly easy for me to keep my carb count low. And, it works well for me. The first time out, I lost 60 pounds in...
