Great advice

Thanks guys I'm no expert but I have been able to help a lot of friends at least get over a hump or get started.
Here is a good formula to use. Do not go by BMI only
Harris Benedict Equation.
Then use the lose weight option. Make sure you are eating
proper size portions 4-6 times a day and plenty of water.
This one the one area most people won't change. NO COKE.Dr. Pepper is not Mr.Pibb.
Anything full of sugar is not water. Lol

That's what I did before - calorie tracker...

The one I like is called 'MyFitnessPal' and you can add friends on there and view their progress etc... It's very neat - I believe I'm 'MikeDVB' if anybody wants to add me - I'll set it back up now.

I have lost 50 lbs. since March using this. I also walked and rode my bike alot when the weather was nicer. XtremeVel bought me a new exercise bike for Christmas and I've been riding my 10 miles a day on that. I gained a couple over the holiday's, but tomorrow I'm back on track.
My hubby rocks!!!!

Ok, since I can't make fun of your weight, I'll make fun of your typing ability.

This is kind of how I'm feeling right now. Although my weight is fine and dandy, the flab that my kids have caused is NOT. No amount of exercising has even put a dent in it. Maybe I'm doing it wrong Definitely no bikini for me!

Sorry to break it to you - but I don't always use purple.

That said - if you plan on being negative - go be negative somewhere else.

Dagnabit!!! You done broked my heart. I' gonna go eat some red snapper/lime/avocado tacos and cry for about 6 hours.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. There won't be a bikini for me this summer either. This will be more my style. Not sure how I'll like the strap thingys around my calves though.

I just dusted off my thigh master! Cleaned off my ab rocker! Found my Richard Simmons sweating to the oldies! Got my neon shorts on ,with my knee high socks and my really cool white sweat band! Soon as I move all these clothes around and find my Tony Little's Gazelle, I'm IN!

Gazelle. I used to laugh so hard at those infomercials. It looks ridiculous.

 

[SkullDaddy.45]

Lifting and increased protein intake??

 

[Denny347]

What calipers did you pick up? I'd like to get an accurate measure of my estimated body fat % to give me a feel for how much muscle I have as I plan on lifting/working out as well.

I've had these for a couple of years.

Amazon.com: Slim Guide Skinfold Caliper: Sports & Outdoors

I plug my measurements into this web site. It also tells you how to measure with your calipers.

Lifting and increased protein intake??

Yeah, just lifting my own weight though, no barbell or any fancy machines.
Sometimes with added weight in a backpack to do pull ups, chin ups, push ups etc.

Lifting and GOMAD diet. You want to put on muscle, lift heavy weight and drink a Gallon Of Milk A Day. Whole milk, none of that sissy skim milk. There is not a better muscle builder drink than whole milk.

I drink milk all the time.Goes well with Oreos.

You will never get bigger with body weight workouts. Don't get me wrong, those are GREAT movements but you can only get bigger by loading up a barbell and squatting, pressing, dead lifting, cleaning, and snatching.

Haven't heard this before. Have an case examples to share? With the added vitamin D I can see where there would be a significant difference between 2% and whole even.
