I could never get where the doc says is my ideal weight. I'm just not built like that. But I should lose at least 20 pounds.
For those of you who aren't sure if you should lose weight, here's a good test. Get nekkid,put your gun on and look in the mirror. If your still CC'ing! Time to lose some weight!!
(guilty...)
I'm 5'10" about 225. I think my profile pic I'm about 220. At 200 I think I would feel alot better. I have the equipment , I just need the motivation.
Sometimes you have to use a bit of tough love with some kids. I know I had to do it a LOT with my son. He and I have a great relationship (he is 21 now) and he has thanked me many times for being tough on him and making him understand right from wrong. He sees many of his friends out there doing all sorts of crap that could get them into serious trouble or kill someone (drinking and driving and such) and he seems to understand that there are consequences if he does this sort of thing, while his friends do not.
Mike I'm built about the same way you are, but I'm heavier, if I could get down to my weight when I was in high school and working out all the time (about 210-220) I'd be happy. The part that gets me is I eat to much. I could pack it away when I used to hang drywall and I didn't have to worry about putting weight on but now that I'm driving a truck my ass keeps getting fatter and fatter!
Did I hear this right? Our New Years Eve resolution is to get fat!! Alright!
I think I can do this one!! I'm already a little short for my weight and with all the cooking that goes on here, shouldn't be hard at all! Turkey soup on the schedule for today...gotta do something with that carcass!
Oh man I jus looked at your profile pic!
put your pants back on!Same here - when I used to unload trailers [by hand, individual freight] I could eat whatever whenever and still keep weight off... Now I sit on my butt at the computer and burn almost no calories but I still eat a ton.
Biggest thing for me growing up was "You need to clear your plate before you leave the table," and it didn't matter if I got full first. I got to where my 'signal' to stop was not when I was full but when the food was all gone.
I still do it now - I will sit down with way too much food and when I'm full I don't stop - I clear the plate or I feel bad about it [guilty].
I really have to do two things:
1. Put less on my plate to start with.
2. Slow down and pay attention to how I feel and stop before I start to feel bad.
When I lost all the weight the other big trick was eating tons of little snacks and no real 'big meals' to speak of. That worked great for keeping weight off but did make me a bit antisocial as most people gather around food and gathering around food was akin to putting somebody who just quit a lifelong habit of smoking in a room full of smokers.

You could always use it for target practice...

Yeah, it's all about portion control for me. I need to buy smaller plates. 
My mom cooked everyday. I think my gaining weight started because I don't have anyone to cook for me anymore. I live off sammiches! Not a very healthy diet!
We're all going on diets! It's the INGO fit club!
I really need to read faster...I thought i just read that we were all getting fat.
Actually that is one way to do it, you'd be surprised but it works. Mike sounds like we have a lot of the same issuesYeah, it's all about portion control for me. I need to buy smaller plates.
another issue I have is eating when I'm bored... That's a big no no. Stop before your full, and only eat when your hungry.
That ship has sailed for me.
Where have you been? We've already done that!
I perfected the art of getting fat over the last 27 years...

So as long as my boobs don't sag enough to cover it, I should be good??? LOL!
