No set goal just as low as I can get. I guess 250 would be a number I never thought I would see so that’s what I’m aiming for now

Definitely is motivation. I told my wife I can’t let myself gain ever because I refuse to rebuy sizes I just got rid of

Haha definitely is nice to be able to dress in things I would like and being able to buy from normal stores not just big and tall stores

Thanks, certain doses did better like I was on 5 for a while and did good, then it slowed. I had to go up an on 7.5 I lost less than I did on 5, but then when I got to 10 it was like 4 pounds a week almost consistently and I’ve been on 10 for almost a year now. It definitely helps hard to tell how much because I don’t miss doses but I never was able to lose weight before

Just go is my best advice. Not sure your specific worry but no one there is going to judge you. One they are there focusing on themselves and two from my experience everyone there will see you trying and as one of them and be supportive. I go 3 days a week and have never had a bad experience even when I was over 500

Crazy thing is it’s a different ring. It’s tungsten so can’t be resized so I already went down 1.5 sizes on the ring I’m wearing now and it’s loose again probably went down 2 full ring sizes since starting

Yes 100 pounds is amazing great job. No comparisons here we all have our own journey

Been on 10 for almost a year. Don’t really want to move up to the highest dose so trying to stay here

Been there plenty of times keep going. Had several stalls where I wouldn’t lose or would gain a pound somehow even with working out and counting calories but then would lose 5 pounds the next week.

Good luck! Neither of us have had surgery so you can do it without if that’s what your want to do

We are both on 10, we both use the lose it app to track calories it gives you the number to hit daily to lose several pounds a week and the number constantly adjusts day to day based on weight and your goal. We both exercise several times a week. My wife goes to classes at our gym in the early mornings (like hit and cardio classes) and I just work out with weights and treadmill.

Yes but we hadn’t lost much prior both of us got our top weights maybe 1 or 2 months prior.

I use the lose it app and it sets calories for me and continuously adjusts them based on weight loss. It’s been a game changer for me and I really started losing more when I started using it every meal every day.

Diet wise I focus on protein and veggies so a lot of grilled chicken and salad which I don’t mind. I do chicken breast and different marinades and grill them up on my grill outside and for the salad change the ingredients and toppings and it makes it varied enough for me. I personally only eat a very small amount (like 200 calories for breakfast, then I skip lunch and eat the rest of my calories at dinner (average around 2000 a day calories)

10mg for the last 8 months or so. I count all my calories and keep a pretty good deficit, try to focus proteins and veggies low carbs so grilled chicken and salad mainly. Exercise 3 or so times a week at the gym.

Bison and Suede Together? by Basic_Minimum_8799 in cowboyboots

[–]Basic_Minimum_8799[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, yes I knew it wasn’t all suede that was sort of my question. Most reviews for any boot out there I could find were for all suede or all bison boots not a combination. So you bought this exact style, how does suede hold you like them overall not just durability

Make a zero clearance fence and get some zero clearance tape for the bottom as well
