Cell phone selfies

[wyogirl]

You look good and congrats. Tell me what did you do to lose the pounds? What types of exercises, avoiding certain foods, etc.. I need to lose weight too, and know what I need to do, but it's a struggle.

I use an app called MyPlate by Livestrong to track my calories. I started running, biking and strength training. All things I can do without a gym...squats, pushups, crunches, etc.

Will have to check into that app. You're definitely working out. Thanks for the tips.

I say this with absolute seriousness... that app changed my life. No joke. It has made this so much easier.

I have lost 40 lbs so ....

hey that's a pretty big deal :thumbup:
you look great!

Just don't tell you lost that weight on Eric's way

Lots of coffee, beer and potato chips.

I actually tried to take a selfie with my cell phone not so long ago and I was surprised how difficult that is! After that experience I've found a new appreciation for all those "duck and fish" girls out there which are taking selfies like crazy

It is actually really hard in my opinion. I dropped the phone at one point, lol. I've never been into selfies, and still am not... but I thought this was fun. My mom had been asking to see a picture of my progress because we live 1500 miles apart. That is why I took it. But then I thought it might be a fun thread. Its silly and fun.

C'mon guys, let's maintain at least some standards this is a photography forum What's next? Pics of what we eat for breakfast?

Well there is a reason why I posted in the "just for fun" catagory and why I stated Cell Phone Selfies as the title.

Never mind, I am just too old and grumpy for selfies and jealous to you all beautiful young girls and boys

Watch out for your BMR as well. Basal Metabolism Rate. And eat slightly below that. Just don't starve yourself ;-)

The MyPlate app calculates your BMR based on questions you answer about height, weight, gender and activity level. You then put in a goal (ex: lose 2 lbs a week) and it tells you how many calories you can eat. Every time you track your weight it adjusts your calorie goal. Its a pretty cool app.

Yes that will do. I use myfitnesspal. Does about the same. Good diet and exercise will eventually lead to weight lost. The goal is to have a healthy lifestyle. The weight lost will come naturally. And congrats on dropping 40lbs.

Id say this is not a "selfie", unless you have really really long arms!
