nice work

peanut butter world oh god.. the best

ha ha congratulations, but seriously.... don't start eating a pint of ice-cream everyday lol! make that a onetime thing

I gave a the first time around... but two times??!?!?!?!??!?!?!...

I only got this for ya:

dude.. it's a target exclusive reboot of a graveyard flavor. give the guy a break.

ZOMG... did not know, but google is my friend — received an 'A' rating from The Ice Cream Informant:

"The stiff swirls contained left-behind pieces of peanuts, which not only added some crunch, but also a savory contrast to the other sweet ingredients. Despite the fact that I’m partial to grape jelly with my peanut butter, I have minimal complaints about Ben & Jerry’s latest flavor. While I’m still upset that we had to lose Brownie Chew Gooder from the current rotation, Peanut Butter Jam Session should help alleviate some of the pain in a big way."

Think Im gonna go for rockin blondies tomorrow and then restart the grind on tuesday.

Amazing what a little success can do to someone.

Although, the Rockin' Blondies sounds good... I might have a pint tomorrow (if I can find it) as well, but I could eat a pint everyday and not gain any weight so it's a little diff.

All,



!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dw is like Keith Richards going on a three day heroin binge right after getting his blood recycled and cleaned

goof,

Congrats! When/where did you start?

Last 3 days calorie counts- 4500, 3700, 6000

Those probably sound outrageous to most of you but I am actually pleased. Less damage than I have typically done in the past and I feel ready to jump right back on today. I will try to give it until the end of October before another break. My goal is 185 by November 1. My scale weight now is 211 but that is obviously inflated, I would guess I am around 202 now.

Great job, GB!

Zimmer, care to put a number out there one week out?

Thanks!

Went from 243 to 210 last April --> December
Started again at 215 this April

"Started" meaning you started dieting/trying to lose weight again? If you weren't doing much between December and April, only gaining back 5 pounds is pretty ****ing good. And nice work breaking the Mendoza Line.

****ed up my shoulder pretty bad on Monday, not sure what exactly I did to it. Think it happened during my softball game when I slid head first, but either way it is has taken me out of the gym all week. Currently in a sling, not sure if I have torn my rotator cuff or not but gonna wait a few more days and see if the pain goes away or not. ****.

217.2 at last weigh in, I was really sick and didn't eat anything last Thursday, but also didn't work out for like 4-5 straight days so if I had to guess I'm right around there.

They think it's a strained rotator cuff. No lifting/sports for a minimum of one to two weeks. Beat but at least they don't think it's torn.

Finally back under 200, 7 days after my 3 day binge. The first few days were incredibly hard, I just had to white knuckle it through the crippling depression and intense cravings. Now I am feeling normal again and think I can keep going for quite a while. The depression that follows a binge for me is so horrible I wish I could just forgo them entirely. But I have been a binge eater my whole life and as pathetic as it is, when I am binging it really is the only time I feel just completely happy. I think maybe in the future if I can limit it to 1 day it will be easier to hop back on. I don't want to constantly be in a deprivation/binge cycle but I doubt I will ever be able to give it up entirely. Hopefully when I get to maintenance it will be easier to work it out.

I'm +5 from my low of 207. Not awful because I haven't been as buckled down, and been drinking a ton/eating on tailgate weekends.

Really bummed to be out of commission with my shoulder, no gym or sports leaves me a lot of free time where I am bored aka hungry feeling.

Sounds like the thread needs some good news. 195 for me yesterday, my new low, less than a week after a 10-day, 9-lb binge.

198.2 today, an all time low. 10 days after my 3 day binge.

When YTF started this discussion I remember laughing at his ignorance. I was about 240 at the time and struggled with weight my whole life but I took solace in the fact I wasn't as clueless as he was. And then a few months ago he actually was at a lower weight than me and I felt really foolish for being so smug and laughing at someone for just being more obese than I was. At that point he really motivated me to do better. Now we weigh about the same and my new goal is to beat YTF to 180.

Thanks for the motivation and good luck!
