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!!!

Stop buying shit and you won't eat shit.
Simple as that. As Dr. Phil once said "Be fat, or beat the fat."

I may do that as well. I have a lot of friends on Facebook that are Biggest Loser contestants and people who are trying to achieve the same results we are.

The biggest thing that worked for me and keeping the weight off was stop drinking soda and cut out sugar and the occasional fried food.

Why? There's a mental aspect to juicing for me as well. I'm trying to fight the psychological part of poor eating.

Or stop keto? Or stop Nutrisystem/Medifast? Or stop fasting? How do you plan to teach yourself healthy eating habits?

I went from 210 to a brief low of 169 in 2009. I'd classify it as a success because three years later I'm at 185, but I'd really like to be back down around 172 again. I look a lot better at that weight, because the additional 13 pounds goes straight to my stomach.

If you decide you want more info on Keto, call me. I can talk pretty much all day. I'm sure GoChiefs can give you a lot of pointers too.
Also a tip for everyone. Diet isn't supposed to be defined as "the food you eat when you want to lose weight." It should be defined as "the food you eat." The point is that you need to make a lifestyle change, not just go on a "diet." |
