Re: 30 LBS in 90 days - Who\'s with me???

IMHO, another completely feasible option for meals are Lean Cuisines..before you laugh, consider them as an alternative for all those times that you want to eat fettucini alfredo and pizza - the food is remarkably good and even if you eat 5 lean cuisines a day, as long as you watch that you aren't getting some of the high (300+) calorie ones, you'll stay under 1500 calories.

I totally missed this thread the first time around...and I was going in the reverse direction while you all were losing. So I'm gonna start mine at the new year. (I refuse to call it a "resolution" tho).
But yeah, Lean Cuisines are actually really good for the spacing out of meals, and if you have some timing regualtions that are difficult. For example, I do Taekwondo, and class sorta runs right thru dinnertime, and I don't want to eat after (too late). So on those nights, I'll often have a lean Cuisine and a Gatorade, kick for 2-3 hours, (and be very happy when I get smashed on one beer when we all go out after.)
Anyway, past personal experience is that a Lean Cuisine tells your mind you ate a "meal" for only 240 calories, and takes 5 min to heat up. Perfect.
Anyone wanna restart the challenge with me in January? I'm gonna train harder at TKD for my cardio, and hi-rep lift the off days, as well as aim for < 2000 cal/day and much less drinking. (I weigh 255 or so right now, and could stand to get to 210 or less eventually, but I'll aim for 225 by April.)
