Same thing happened to me. I didn't that i was that big. Then I worked my tail off and lost 60 lbs.
Love seeing the old reminders of why I get after it day after day.

Has anyone seen the Lindy’s Magazine for college football? It’s usually out by now and I haven’t seen anything except Athlon.

yeah, i pretty much hate myself for ever getting to that point lol. i'm currently down 52 lbs. down 3 pant sizes and a shirt size.

pretty much at my target now. problem has always been keeping it off. i think seeing that picture somewhat regularly will help in that arena....lol.

Another trick is clothing. Get some fairly tight fit clothing you really like. Once you start not fitting anymore, it is a reminder. It also puts you in the spot of either buying all new clothes or just losing a few pounds. I hate shopping, so it's usually an easy choice.

Oh lord are we going to destroy them the next 2 years. No chance. You will have to try and hide your gloating face and practice making friendly comments like, "oh, Pitt made a first down! Nice...".

eh, none of them care enough about Pitt football for me to even care about gloating. the only time that place sells out, or even close to sells out, for college games is when a big boy comes to town...ND, FSU, Clemson...otherwise, it's a ghost town on Saturdays.

i expect a lot of orange up there......and pittsburgh is a cool city. lots to do, great food, a much better than you expect bar/restaurant scene....and if hte steelers or Pens are playing in town that weekend, it's a solid candidate for a big sports weekend....
