Exactly. I had gluten free layered chocolate cake with white chocolate cream icing on the inside and chocolate fudge on the outside.

Weight maintenance is so much harder than it used to be!

but I’m committing myself to this.
How I love the way the lbs fall off during the first few days of a diet. Down 2lbs this morning from 216 to 214.

There are reportedly unicorns who can't eat when they're under stress. I'm not friends with them. Don't want to be, either.
Yeah, well, I bought 36s
They mock me on the closest shelf
I'm still in my 38s...which is weird, 'cause I'm only 5' 10" and weigh over 212...and yer 200 lbs and tall

Gary, it sounds like you and I have the same body type. I'm also 5'10", currently just over 212lbs and in size 38 jeans. I have size 36 jeans in a bottom drawer that I haven't worn in a little over a year since before my foot surgery. Every once in a while when I walk by my bureau I swear I hear a little snicker coming from that bottom drawer.
Down 1.5lbs today for a 3.5lb total in just two days, now at 212.5
Not falling for it JimKeesha, are you saying that Gary and I are fat?
Damn.....I gotta get serious with this sh-t
I lost a couple lbs, but found them hiding in a bucket at KFC

It's the first few days of my diet when the first 5lbs fly off, after that it will be game on. If I can average one to two lbs a week after the first week, I'll be happy.
I usually find my lbs in the form of pepperoni pizza or a bacon cheeseburger.

Stuff like that doesn’t trip me up. It’s the little things...The in-between stuff. That handful of potato chips, an extra glass of wine, a few M&M’s, the half of the cookie the grands didn’t finish, a couple spoonful of Mac n cheese.
I don’t even keep any of that stuff at the house!! But between all the food temptations at clients’ homes (I’m always encouraged to eat) and frequent visits to grandkids through the week, temptation is constantly around.
It takes a will of steel to not succumb. And sometimes I’m weak.
I've got a buddy who dabs the grease off the top of his pepperoni pizza with a napkin. The first time I saw him do that I said "What the hell are you doing? That's the best part!"

Wife and I cleaned house on Sunday, ate some of the junky stuff and tossed the rest. The temptation is everywhere, unfortunately the will power isn't.
Usually, me either
Trouble for me is when folks come to vist
....and they come from a long way
Gotta eat then
Our place is too tiny
So, we eat out
Pizza house is a natural
And we've had lotsa company since we moved to town
Yesterday was an outa the blue thing
I could smell the colonel's thighs a block away....wait, that didn't come out quite right

I like my clothes to fit loose. Especially pants. If my pants stay up without a belt they are too tight.
If I get down to a size 36 I would feel like I have arrived. My old man was tall and lanky at 6-2 and 175 lbs. and he wore 36 pants.
Now I'm not saying this applys to you, but I have seen a lot of dudes wearing pants that are way too small for them. They wear them cinched around them like tourniquets way down low and let their huge bellies hang over them.

Yeah, I've seen that, too
I wear a belt if I have to, but most 38s fit just right on me, quite near the belly button
Wranglers are one
Heh, my 36s are those tourniquets
