Completely unrelated to slinging, I thought I´d share this photo of myself.

Massi - WTF? It's called a sling. You use it to throw rocks farther and faster than you could otherwise. That's all.

20 Kg or 44 pounds. Lots of cardio and half a ration of carbs a day.

That's exactly how much I want to lose, but I'm only half way there.

Very impressive.  I admire your dedication and your work ethics.  And it is work to lose weight.  It doesn't go away by magic.

WTG.  It looks like two different people in the pictures.  Good job!
   I could stand to loose a few pounds myself.  I'm not super fat like before but I do carry a little more than necessary.

Don´t give up guys. Maintain discipline and make sure to make some physical activity. Men have an advantage when it comes to weight loss.

Damn, I have 20kgs I want to lose as well... unfortunately I'm already maxed out on excercise, so the only thing left is changing the bad habits in my diet, which I find extremely hard.

    Some of you remember a few years back I lost almost one hundred pounds.  I've found (at least for me) that what I ate after dinner was the most important aspect of my weight loss.  If I ate nothing but raw fruits and vegetables after supper while eating sensibly during the day I'd loose up to five pounds a week.  Give it a try.  I need to get back on that diet for a while now.

    When I lost all of my weight the last time  I'd load up on all of my daily carbs at breakfast.  As the day progressed I'd consume less and less... maybe just a few crackers at lunch and none at dinner and especially none after dinner.  Fat was my enemy more than carbs.
    I was on a diet once where I completely cut out all complex carbs.  Yes, I lost a lot of weight quickly but I was burning muscle as well as fat and once the diet stopped I put all of the weight back on in less than a year.  Don't cut out all of your carbs... your body needs them.  Just eat them sensibly.
