You can do it anon!

Weight loss is nowhere near as intimidating as it seems once you get going with it.

Just remember to do it healthily-just stop eating junk and crap, cut out fast food, and prepared foods, and work out, and the weight will fall off.

Me and my bf have already cut out all fast food, which we'd been eating 2-3 times a day, I cook most of our meals (I've been eating tons of salads with fat-free ranch...well, and Bac-os, haha), and we only drink 1 soda a day now, if any (as opposed to, like, 6). We wake up early and he goes walking w/ his ipod, I go swimming. We also have weights that we lift on and off during the day.

I think we're doing good for being a couple of lazybones eating nothing but Taco Bell and Burger King up until just a few weeks ago. :D And we'll only get better!

It makes me happy to read about people here that are taking up a healthier lifestyle too.

*Gives you both a gold star!* Keep it up, guys!

Honestly, just the lack of fast food will do it! Especially going from 2-3 times a day to none at all. And cutting out soda will definitely help to-especially when you realize you were drinking 1000 calories a day and getting nothing for it.


Give it two weeks and realize how much better you *feel* without fast food too! That was the best part for me, I had so much more energy and felt so much more awake and alert and slept better after I cut out fast food and soda.

Yay! That is good, congrats! I will say, take a look at the nutritional info on that back of those Bacos - you WILL be shocked. Still, not the worst thing ever - but I'd say if you could work more veggies into the salad and cut out the bacos that would be another step right there.

Part of this process is not just shifting your perceptions, but shifting your palate. Eating a lot of fast food actually ruins the palate somewhat and makes it hard to stomach things that don't hit all the crave-points - sugars, fats and salts. I imagine you have to put the Bacos on the salad because otherwise it tastes too bland to you. If you continue eating well, over time healthy foods will begin to taste richer and fuller, you will taste how carrots are actually very sweet (some of the most sugary of the veggies!), how delightful and green dark lettuces are, you'll start to appreciate the textures and understates flavors more. Fast food will begin to taste overloaded and decadent, almost sickeningly so.

Honestly, if you cut down on our soda intake even more you'll end up saving yourself ~45,000 calories a year. Maybe just make it a weekend thing? And switch to something healthier like green tea or whatever during the week. Soda is just the worst. I completely gave it around 6 months ago (after being a heavy drinker of it) and I think it's a big part of how I've lost around 45 pounds since then
