There is some thing to be said about your ("frame") mine is a large big boned I thought about trying to get down to 185...So im the ( right weight ) for vanity fair people! or 40% of the skinny people..... but I look at my self, and then check out my chest with a 45 inch diameter chest, used to be 56......... 20.5 arms now 15 but rock hard! And dam I, look good! but any way that another story.hehe.I have been stuck at 209/212 for all most a month.because of weights.If i, stick to the weights I could propley hit the 200lb but that would be killing my self! and if I wanted to get down to 185 the only way I, could do it is to just walk every day and stay around 1000/1200 calories no lifting weights because building mucle mass gives you weight! people have already come up to me many and told me to stop losing weight,Because im looking to thin/I think they are just used to seeing me fat. Im happy for the first time in twenty five years I, can wear a large jacket size 32 pants........geting to frame size I think its all what you think there is small, med ,large.....some super sized.or could be as simple as what you think your frame size is an idea, weight for you.....and mine is 200lb will get to that and maintain and really tone up! thats my goal but in the health books 200lb for six feet tall man is over weight. go figure yeah.... if your a bean pole or a, walking stick maybe...I will send a new photo not to be conseeded but you tell me if I, sould lose more or stay at this weight Please you won;t hurt my feeling....Thanks JohnQ

YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE HARDEST PART BY GOING THROUGH THE SURGERY! NOW TAKE SOME TIME AND THINK ABOUT IT ALL!.... YOU CAN DO THIS I PROMISH!...... when the reps come in with food just say no thanks and then go and get a drink of some Water it sounds funny but your stomach will feel full you now have tricked your mind! as weight loss it alot of mind game. you no what you have to do. it up to you! please dont take that the wrong way! it all takes time. and if you have to eat eat health take some fruit to work! the only thing I can tell is walking really helps. good luck there are better days ahead like tomorrow have a nice day at work! good bless

Thanks so much ladys!! My friends all! I thought about it I have been killing my self walking every day. 6days aweek of exercising weight,s biking heavy bag speed bag! im not giving my body time to heal and proper rest... I have noticed abig change I have dimp pulls in my stomach in dents only because I was up to 1000 crunths. to much. up to four hours aday work out. it has also seemed like an addiction i like the adrenalin of the work out even bigger arms.the total package. Im trying to hard.I rolled a machine down a hill and hurt knee shoulder so I will be slowing down! ................probley not by choice!................ I guess Im a fraid of being fat again. My personalty is do every thing 110% I used to have anixity disorder. thats gone now. now i have a compulsave disorer. haha new rule...... mon-wed fri weights .... tue -thur cardeo heavy bag/speed bag cruntchs 3 times aweek when I up and around. Im not trying to impress any one just be in great shape, this weight loss life style change for the past ten months has been rewarding I can buy of the kid rack....and I have great friends like you who are full of wisdom and who no ,how it is to be heavy I just hated being discrimanated by people because I was heavy! WELL THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR WISDOM IT HAS PUT ME INTO THE RIGHT MIND SET AND IT LIKE LOSING WEIGHT ( YOU CAN,T DO IT ALL IN A DAY ) GETING IN SHAPE WILL TAKE TIME!!!! I, will slow down and just let it take me where ever, keeping in shape that is. but in time!!! THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND KIND WORDS i WISH EVERY, ONE HAD A SUPPORT NET WORK LIKE THIS.JOHNQ

Hey whats up! Up your calories i was at 800 for three weeks lost weight then stoped!! you should try 1200 1500 because your body will go into starvation mood where it fight it self for the calories and you will hit a wall.....also try a small work out first thing in the morning to burn off stored fat from the day before.that does work. I have been having trouble with a few pounds up because I have been hitting the weights and to much exercise six days aweek. not giving my body proper time to rest & heal. well my friend take care...good luck!JOHNQ

I,am killing my self with exercise1 15 hours of exercise..... a week .Am I over doing it. Ihave been eating a little more because of weight lifting, that alone is two hour work out plus hour walking.hitting heavy bag or bike......... feel really depressed over this I know that i am under 1500 calories,I was at about 1200 and was not losing any more so that when I added weight to tighten flabby arms more reps less weight. Started gaining weights. arms are tighting. can a person over exercise/not giving there body not enough time to heal? well there is always starvation....hahaha I know that is not the answer. what shoud i do quit weights stick to cardeo needed answer fast Ideas please. weighed in at 212 drinking lots of water... or just go back to walking only thata has always did it before! JOHNQ
