The Flopnuts Fatties Thread
I'm going to be an attention whore on this. For those of you who don't know me, I'm a morbidly obese individual. I grew up overweight. Like, as long as I can remember. In the beginning of 2008 a weight loss thread started. I decided for the first time in my life I was going to go see a doctor and try and take off some weight. I was 450lbs.
I learned how incredibly ignorant I was to health, fitness, and food. Over the course of a year and a half or so, I lost 185lbs. I went from someone who had never been able to run a mile in his life, to someone who ran 30-40 miles a week. I have a framed picture of myself completing my first 5k, and it was one of the proudest moments in my life. In August of 2010 my wife and I decided to move to Branson, MO from Seattle, WA. I've lived here before, and wanted to come back. I've never really drank in my life because I come from a long line of alcoholics. I chose a different poison, and always smoked pot. (Yeah, lost 185lbs with the ****ing munchies every day. Go me!) Needless to say, I started drinking when I got down here because the pot was horrible, and eventually stopped running. When I stopped running, I started gaining weight. Today, 2 years later, I weigh approximately 380lbs. I say approximately because frankly, I would have to find a freight scale to weigh myself. Today is the day it all begins again. I thought long and hard about putting myself out there on this board, because it has changed so much since I did this the first time. But it was such a great release for me, and an insane source of positive encouragement, and valuable information that I decided to do it. I also know that all that weight I lost inspired a few others on this board to do it as well. My understanding is that they have all kept that weight off. I'm hoping to replicate those achievements with some current fatties out there. Let's band together! Let's learn, and fight, and be who we want to be, rather than who we are right now. I'm going to post before and after pictures in the next post. My before and after is a little different though. I'm going to post pictures of me at 265, and one of me today. I look forward to posting my after-after picture at the end of the year. I am going to lose 100lbs+ before this year is over. My goal, is to weigh 250lbs by January 1st. That would be the same weight I was at in the 8th grade. Public accountability is a big part of why I was so successful before I think. The idea of putting this up and being the same or worse by year's end is disgusting. I believe it will help me. I will be bumping this thread perhaps on a daily basis. It worked the last time. Who's with me? Who is ready to put in the blood, sweat, and tears necessary to change your life forever? If I'm alone, I'm alone. But I hope some of you will join me in the battle of the bulge. We'll call it "Custard's last stand"! And to anyone who wants to talk shit to me, about me, or whatever, bring it on. It fuels me. GO!!!

In all seriousness, using Weight Watchers has helped me immensely. I'd say it's been the most effective in balancing the weight loss with allowing me to eat and drink what I want.

So that's why fasting works for me. It suits the way I eat. For others it might not work as well (like my wife).

The whole "loving food" thing has always interested me. I used to work with a guy whose entire day was about what he was going to eat. I used to drive him nuts because while I like food (and love some), it's really just something that my body requires. He used to say, "You know what, Donger!? You eat to live. I live to eat." I actually enjoy the process of making a meal a lot more than eating it.

I'm 210 and way outta shape. Can barely run a mile.
I'm gonna start working out again, today! I need to get my 6 pack back and my motivation is need to be healthy again and feel good. I know 210 doesn't sound like a lot to you, but it's a lot to me and maybe we can motivate each other. |

Yup, I'm a picky eater and there is a lot of healthy stuff I just won't eat and giving up my favorite foods just seems stupid. If I'm going to have pizza, just have two pieces and eat light that day. I know some people that just use some of the free apps on the web to basically do it for free.

Is it just no longer cool to say "carb diet" or what?
I mean, that's what it is...
