Life **** OFFICIAL 2015 Flopnut's Fatties Weight-loss Thread**** - Page 6

**The Franchise** · 01:14 PM

We didn't do it last year but we did it two years ago and I'm bringing it back. Post in here if you want to drop some poundage and I'll add you to the main post. Set yourself a goal and then post in here to be held accountable. If you want....we can track your weight-loss all year long and then crown a winner at the end of the year. I know in the past that posters have put up prizes (not necessary).

Let's do this shit....

FYI: This is not a thread to start arguments over which way is the best way to lose weight. There are different ways for different people. Keep the stupid shit out of this thread.

On the 1st of every month, either post your current weight in this thread or send me a PM with your current weight. I'll update the excel spreadsheet that I have and I'll update the OP with current weight loss measurements.

The food thing is a state of mind. You've conditioned yourself to feel like every meal needs to be delicious. I eat oatmeal in the morning, salad or cottage cheese in the afternoon, and Lean protein for dinner with veg, and the occasional starch. Boredom is a state of mind. I'm going to play more slots this year to keep my mind off of it.

I have a lot more work that needs done than you. Incorporate oatmeal and a lightly dressed salad into your diet twice a week, and you'll get right where you want too be.

I am so picky and I always crave these things and these things only.

I need to learn how to eat healthier and eat cheaper. Every time I go to the store I end up wasting bread, lunch meat, everything ... because none of it ever sounds appealing.

I need help on this in the worst way.

Damn that's a lot of salt man. Cut that shit out.

Sugar is really tough for me. I'm trying really hard to cut down on it.

Does everyone want to just do monthly weigh ins? I'm going to create a spreadsheet that tracks everyone's weights.

Just bought a cast iron so I'll start grilling chicken constantly and buy a few bottles of hot sauce from BW3 and go from there!

My laziness is just ... all-time high. All I like to do is gamble and drink and nap.

Boom. The good news is the repercussions of your decisions is not morbid obesity. So in the end, it's a choice more than a necessity. Just have to figure out how bad you want it. Eggs are quick as **** to make and are great protein and low calories. If you ever want some simple, easy, fast recipes I'm sure we'll have a bunch of them thrown in the OP soon. Or at least a link to them.

Current Weight: 300.7

Goal Weight:230

Good luck to all!

Right on, man. Welcome aboard! You may remember the first one of these I ever did. Practically like a diary looking back on it now.

**Mr. Flopnuts** · 01-06-2015, 01:07 PM

My thing this year is going to be alcohol consumption. I'm STILL drinking at least 1000 calories a day in grain alcohol. 5-6 days a week. I gave up pot because frankly, it stopped working. Clear eyes, full heart...easier said than done. I'm not a drunk yet, I mean of course I am, but what I mean by that is I'm confident that I'll get past it sooner versus later. I don't live for the shit. The crazy thing is, I've still lost weight. That's how horrible I was eating.

I don't monitor carbs, but I do try to keep my fat intake low (but I've found that for the foods I eat, calories and fat kind of go hand-in-hand.)

Also, I work my butt off. I will exercise vigorously at least an hour a day, usually on the stationary bike in my man cave but I'm also riding a road bike. Then, the better I've felt, the more active I've been with my kids, leading to street hockey games, ice skating, more walks with my wife, and longer bike rides when I have time.

On a Saturday, I'll usually go out and do about 30-40 miles with 1,500-2,000 feet of elevation.

I'll attach a before and after if I can figure out how to do it.

Awesome. I think a lot of people are afraid of counting calories because they think it will ruin food. In my experience though, the food still tastes the same, you just feel better about what you're eating.

I'm lazy too. The trick is to find easy things to make.

I used to do the oatmeal thing. Still do occasionally. Lately though I've been going with Greek yogurt for breakfast (dannon oikos vanilla, no fat high protein). Every few weeks I buy a giant bag of whole frozen strawberries. I like fresh better but I don't have to worry about frozen going bad in the fridge... Just gotta thaw and slice the berries mix in a few tbsp of yogurt and if I feel like it a little cereal (I go with one of the Quaker natural varieties when I do). And that's it, 5 minutes of prep nothing to clean but a bowl. Change berries when I get bored.

Eat eggs a fair amount too, along with Turkey sausage for more protein. There's all kinds of good brands out now. Takes longer than yogurt, but still easy prep and cleanup.

Lunch time I usually go with fish or chicken. Steam them along with some frozen vegetables, same logic as fruit - frozen doesn't go bad if you, say, get lazy for a night and go out. Also like a foreman grill for the meat. Easy to use, low stress.

For dinner I usually eat salad (sometimes just lettuce) and occasionally soup. I'm trying to stay away from sugar at night so less fruits after noon, more vegetables.

Still working on dropping soda. Drink lots of water, it's really important for you. Might want to watch the drinking. I've lately gotten on a hard cider kick and that shit' s 200 calories a bottle...

Basically figure out stuff you like that's available even when you're lazy as shit...

Yeah, I think that would be awesome man.

My big thing for you, is don't beat yourself up too much. In your case slow and steady is what will win the race. Beating the hell out of yourself is the fastest route to just giving up on it. I think you'll get it though. We're all older and wiser.

Just finished a foot long subway sandwhich. Eating healthy is a huge challenge for me. It was grilled chicken so I have that going for me.

I did only eat half my baked lays bag, got an iced tea.

I ate an Apple and some pineapple for breakfast.
