I wrecked my motorcycle... :(
Keeping in mind that I also lost 20 pounds since the accident, I could complain a bit more. lol. It all happened on Dec. 20 and I finally got out of the rehab hospital this past Tuesday. I still have double vision and some nerve damage in my right shoulder, but having heard what apparently happened, I'm incredibly happy to be where I am right now. Anyway, my question is that I keep wondering whether I should get an unfill. They say that my diet should be normal right now, but it would be incredibly hard to go back up in caloric intake again. Grrrrrr. Short story: Yarg. haha.

How many eggs can you eat?
For some reason, I can't eat eggs with the fill I have right now. Meh. I do heart scrambled eggs, though. Mmmmmm.

..people changing..based on 1/2 other's opinions, it isn't right!!!
WasABB rocks my socks. haha. I met her a couple of weeks post-op and she was the sweetest. VERY knowledgeable in the medical field and industry and if I do say, she's not too tough on the eyes.

NSV (Non Scale Victories)
A couple of things recently: -38's are getting loose and L t-shirts are the new norm. -An old highschool crush who came into my work actually gave me her number and the look. You know, the look like "I actually want to go out with you". Oh yeah. hahaha. Any other takers? :-P

Has anyone taken up Bycyling?
What would you guys recommend for a new guy who wants to get into road biking?

Sheesh - it's just not that difficult!
I hate the lingo used. The SMS language. OMG, u, r, etc... I'm sorry that it's so inconvenient to type out english. If it's too hard to type out your native language, please feel free to stop. Oh, and if you could stop procreating, too, that would be great. Thaaaanks.

Anyone Else Having an Increased Sex Drive?
I'm probably one of the only guys that I know that porn doesn't do much for. It may have something to do with the fact that I'm pre-med and anatomy is just anatomy. I have no idea. My testosterone is supposed to be at its highest right now. I guess that I shouldn't be complaining about it, though, because at least I don't need to worry about an unwanted pregnancy. I must admit, though, it does get a little annoying when the situation presents itself. Yarg...
-
If I'm going to fall off the wagon ....
THAT, people, is the key. When you want to cheat, cheat, but have a very small amount. Actually, though, that cheeseburger really isn't too much worse and probably had more Protein. Good job!

Anyone Else Having an Increased Sex Drive?
See, my sex drive is MIA, too. I don't get it.

Learning to be this size...
Eat three small meals a day and then bust your ass at the gym. More about the three small meals: Sub 35g carb per DAY Keep calories under 1000 or so. Protein, protein, protein. More about the gym: 20g Protein shake 30-45 minutes beforehand 20g protein shake as soon as you get home, hopefully within 30min or so. Oh, and bust your ass.

feelin a little down..
For one, Vietnamese and thai food rock my socks lately. In small portions, that is. haha. Second of all, I made a post about this TV commercial bit not too long ago and how it was the proverbial demise of my life. Those damn commercials are evil. Don't be so hard on yourself. Adjusting to the new lifestyle will take a while. EVERY SINGLE DAY IS ANOTHER BATTLE. I will tell you, though, and I've said this many times before, the people on here are absolutely amazing. They have absolutely saved me a few times. Post a thread and talk to them about what's going on in your head. I guarantee that you'll find someone who is in your same boat that you can talk to and relate with. Good luck and see you around! John

feelin a little down..
I know you CAN eat it, but you have to realize that this band will not make you lose weight in and of itself. It is ONLY A TOOL. You have to take responsibility for what you eat because YOU are the one who is going to pay for it in the end. The ONLY reason why I'm telling you this is because I was in your same shoes, and because of it, I slowed down my weight loss a bit. One day, I woke up and said to myself, no more crap. It's time to buckle down. I hope you, too, get there. Good luck!
-
My testimony-I'm losing weight again!!!
Good for you!!!!! I'm just as guilty as anyone else, but I'm a HUGE advocate of always getting your Protein in however you have to. Oh, and try to keep the carbs at 30g/day max, if possible.

A thread for Single Bandsters
I'm in the same boat as manatee. I'll add another little caveat, though. Ron White said it best when he said: You can't fix stupid. I won't date a girl I'm not attracted to. I also won't date a girl that I'm not compatible with. Personality weighs heavy with me when it comes to attraction, but if I'm not attracted, I'm not attracted.

Kicking the addiction...
Grocery shopping is the pits. I hate it. I avoid doing it at all costs. I'm such a poor college student that it's insane. I can barely afford to shop anyway. haha. Thank god for "mom's cafe" that's just up the road. :-P
-
How to handle hunger...
To say the very least, they are disgusting. Ewwww. The GNC Protein is pretty good. 1:1 Mix of Orange, strawberry, and Banana mixed with either Water or some sort of berry crystal light... Heaven. Amazing.
-
PB after exercise?
I've never had that problem, but I'm a HUGE stickler to 20g protein shake 30-45min pre-workout and a 20g shake right after. I usually don't eat for a few hours after, though.
