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!!!

2. You may not hit a fog. Then again you probably will. When I did, it wasn't as bad as most people's. To me it felt like I was perma-stoned for like 24 hours. As far as the bathroom, your body is adjusting. Soon you will notice you aren't going to the bathroom as often. Make sure you drink at least 2L of water (4L is preferable) a day, and eat at least one serving of green veggies a day to stay regular. As far as Intermittent Fasting goes, it's a widely controversial topic. I say go for it and see how you like it. |

Also, since my first goal has passed (Sept 23 wedding where I was a groomsman), my new goal is to bang a hottie from the gym. Pretty shallow, but screw it, I want them, and the goal is to make them want me.

So far haven't been doing bad on the low carb/intermittent fasting change. I stop eating at 8-9 PM.....and I don't eat lunch until 1 PM the next day. 15-16 hours of fasting every day and I'm keeping my carbs under 25 during my eating window. So far in close to two weeks....I'm down 10 lbs. And that's with NO exercising....because I can't get my fat ass to have any motivation to work out. Starting to piss myself off.

You should probably stay under 20g of net carbs per day.
I found out that when there are major hotties at the gym, I actually want to go there. Gonna hit up the gym today for some active recovery. |

When did I say 25? I may have said that to Flop, but he's a lot bigger. No more than 5% of your calories should come from carbs. If your daily caloric intake is 2000 calories, then 25g is fine, but I doubt if you're eating that much. 20g = 5% at 1600 calories.

The problem with us fatties is that we're brainwashed to think being fat is OK because most people don't have the balls to tell their fat friends that they are concerned for their health.
Being fat isn't OK and you're not a good role model if you're fat. In other news, the last month I was just maintaining because I did a tux fitting 1 month before the wedding. This morning I weighed in at 212.6. I decided to go full hardcore again like I did in the beginning. Breakfast and dinner only from now on and 1500 calories or less. On Sunday I was 218.0. Hope to break 200 by end of the month. |

My cousin lost her husband this morning. Mark was in his early 50's, struggled with his weight his entire life. At one point he was over 500 lbs., and eventually got down below 400, but by that time the damage was done. Too many years of eating and drinking too much of the wrong things.
Helluva wake up call.

IF and Low Carb are the shit right now. 18 hour fast each day with a 6 hour eating window. Down 11.5 lbs in 2 weeks. One week of that was trying to do the whole count calories thing. Seriously though....how many servings of greens or vegetables am I supposed to eat a day? The last two days I've had almost 3 servings a day.....and I'm still in the bathroom 3-4 times a day. |
