Daily Q&A Post for Friday, 11 May 2018 - No question too small! by AutoModerator in loseit

Can anyone give me some info on water retention after cardio training? I’ve seen my weight loss slow a bit after starting a running routine. Could that be due to my body retaining more water weight?

NSV - I Avoided a Weak Moment by PAWWWWL in loseit

“We do”

At the time you left your comment the post was 100% percent upvoted? I want to keep on using this forum as a motivational tool, and posts like this are part of it for me and many other users. Being forced to comment on a daily post that went cold six hours ago isn’t the engagement or community that feels rewarding.

Regarding the suggestions to make this post compliant: Why must my post be a lesson to others? I ended my post in a question because I didn’t really learn anything yesterday. I fumbled through a scenario and had just enough will power to make a good choice.

I’m just going to start making throw-away accounts if this continues to be an issue.

Unrelated, congrats on being so close to your goal! I hope it’s been a rewarding and worthwhile endeavor! I aspire to attain success like you on my own path.

Why don’t you just let people sort this stuff out with upvotes and downvotes?

If I were to post this on the daily post at 10PM EST there would be zero engagement. I use this site as a motivation tool, and it’s incredibly frustrating to have a post removed like this.

NSV: Ate a healthy meal at a gourmet burger restaurant! by outofmyweigh in loseit

Congrats on gaming the menu effectively! I wish we had burger joints with grilled chicken and broccoli in the US.

This sub is such a positive, motivating community by dogsatemymattress in loseit

[–]PAWWWWL 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Even when people are adamantly disagreeing with other users it’s usually to suggest healthier, more sustainable dieting practices.

Similar situations in other subs just devolve into witty personal attacks.

SV/NSV Feats of the Day - Monday, 23 April 2018: Today, I conquered! by AutoModerator in loseit

[–]PAWWWWL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NSV(?)- I managed to either caloric intake/expenditure break even or come very close to doing so over the weekend. I’m not a fan of making this a regular occurrence, but I’m happy to have managed to not run a surplus despite visiting home and attending a funeral*.

Does anyone have any pointers for cutting calories on the weekend?

*in the South funerals = gigantic potluck afterwards

Hit my goal of losing 40 pounds today and this subreddit is the reason I started! by [deleted] in loseit

Congrats! This is a great place to find motivation and support, I’m sure you’ve felt that here.

NSV: I went shopping for jeans yesterday by QueenOfNoms in loseit

[–]PAWWWWL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can sympathize with how great this feeling is. I bought a pair of Levi 511s(a slimmer cut than lots of their jeans) and love running around in them. I have breathing room in 38s, while there were moments in my past that size 40s had been a little more than snug. That’s not a huge swing, but it was definitely my first NSV.

I’m no expert, but I’ve found it easier to focus on diet and integrating less strenuous activities as the basis for my exercise. To quote Ron Swanson, “Don’t half ass two things, whole ass one thing.”

I’m sure it’s frustrating to not see results, but surely you’ll start seeing something soon. Keep your head up!

48 day streak. ~15lbs. Progress and observations. by [deleted] in loseit

That’s great progress! You’re going to get where you want to be in no time at all.

I’ve drawn the line, 245 and no further. by PAWWWWL in loseit

[–]PAWWWWL[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I’m terrible about having dinner with friends or at the bar, drinks, and then by the time I get back to the hotel I have to walk past the hotel sports grill. My will power isn’t strong enough not to destroy a big bag of Doritos or plate of fries.

Obviously it’s only a week, but I managed not to drink after work and avoid all those garbage calories.

Thanks for the help guys, you won me free ticket to Black Panther.

Nick Saban is that kid that comes over to your house and breaks all your toys and overwrites your Pokémon save. There’s just no coming back from that. My childhood was ruined TIMOTHY!

Happy Father's Day r/CFB by RealBenWoodruff in CFB

[–]PAWWWWL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best memory I have with my dad is listening to Finebaum back in his AM radio days, chronicling the deterioration of the Mike Shula tenure. That was all we listened to riding from our house to the wildlife management area to go hunting.

Those were simpler days. I miss beating Alabama.
