Yeah, that's okay man.

Look at the first post, you called yourself out, set out and dropped 5 kilos I love it. I love seeing the (-3,27%) in red. Just keep aiming at this, you made an excellent first post here.

Don't let the time between then and now stop you from continuing this. Other people will follow, it's beautiful sweg.

I was 245 back in March and now I’m down to 235. Still working to drop at least another 10, but progress is progress

last time i was here i think i said i was around 185 lbs, not sure though
anyways, even though the tennis season got canceled i've been working out at home 5 times a week and my last weigh-in i weighed 178 lbs, the first time i've been below 180 in idk how long. means i've lost 7 lbs in the past 3ish months
(for those of you wondering, i am teen and also 5'9" so i used to be overweight at 185)

ty to @High Stick King @EvilAllBran and @Ragnar for the sigs

Doing alright though? Do you know what you ate that caused it, or anything like that?

I'm better(ish) now. June 1st when it started. Just happened randomly, I had some heart burn while I was driving, I don't think I even had anything to eat yet. Then after it passed I started feeling terribly bloaty as if I had just eaten 20 pizzas.

This actually happened before last year. I had the gallstone unplugged and then the gallbladder removed. Now the docs are saying it was likely a remaining stone that was not found. Not sure how that makes sense, but they widened my bike duct so it'd be harder for it to happen again.

Had the epondectomy (I think that's what it's called) last week. The stone had apparently passed already, or it must have unclogged while they were going in. But I think I'm finally recovering now. Just took a lot longer for everything to schedule because of the coronavirus situation.

My pee is no longer brown and I can move without pain, so things are on the upswing. I'll probably gain a few pounds as I can finally eat again, but hoping to build off this "momentum" and lose some more poundage.

Glad to see this thing rolling again. I was asking in Ana's LR about doing something like this after I first got in and it was shrugged off :eyes:.

I've been fighting weight since 2011, after I realized how much I had been slacking off since college. I had mostly been fighting weight between 270-290, which is a bit for my height. In 2017 it all came to a head when I weighed in at my Sis-In-Laws house, on a whim and saw 315. It was October 15th, 2017...and I decided then and there I needed to make a change.

I started using WiiFit, which was fun and gamifying it was the best part of keeping me on track. By November 1 of 2017 I was down to 300. 15 pounds in 15(ish) days. By christmas I was down to 289, so another 11 pounds.

Feburary 2018, I signed up as a volunteer firefighter and was down to 280. By my birthday in 2018 I had gotten down to 271, my lowest weight in years. A total of 44 pounds lost. I lost my dad that december to a heart attack...and for a while the only things that kept me focused were the regular weight lifting and monday night training at the FD. Also knowing that I would be starting my year of instruction to be a certified FF was in January...I kept it up, not just for me..but for him.

I hovered right around 270 the entirety of 2019, which was alright and fairly easy when twice per week you had FF class that was burning almost 2k calories in a 4 hour period (think HIIT on steroids). Then I graduated, and stopped. I'm not sure why I did. Lost motivation? Started letting everything I was blocking start coming back (stress / loss of parent / etc)....and so here I am, June of 2020...back at 283. 13 pounds heavier than what i was at previously.

I need to get back on the wagon, but in a house of 3 kids I have practically 0 accountability...aside from myself.

I originally had a lofty goal of hitting 220...then I started listening to the American Glutton podcast, with Ethan Suplee. Yeah, this guy

In case you haven't seen him lately, this is what he looks like now:

He's about 240 pounds in this picture.

So i've dropped my goal to initially hit 260 now instead of all the way to 220. Again though, getting myself to do the work...the accountability is probably the hardest part.

goddamn man thanks for sharing, good thing you're trying to build off it, good luck with it, keep aiming at it.

You could create some weird ass, very specific form of accountability here. Not really accountability, idk just like something to think about. There's some potential of your in-laws seeing you one day, they ask what happened to you or whatever, so you tell them their scale is a fuckin bro. An absolute g, who told you what's up. The scale is what generated new information which set you on the path.

Can be genuinely grateful the scale was there. Probably manufactured by those bastards at Kholer, but still thinking of that moment in your in-laws house when you knew can be powerful.

Thanks man. I think things are back to normal, though I have a bit of paranoia. Just need to use to feeling normal again lol.

Gained a few pounds back, but probably a good thing. Got my appetite back, splurged a little bit, and now getting back to the diet.

Some good things came from all this, though. I'm down about 10-15 pounds, I'm almost repulsed by soda, and I'm enjoying everything much more.

@スウェグキング
Desire to improve is in you sweg. Allow it to be, embrace that as much as you can. Denying the part of yourself that's seeking something better only you leaves worse off.

Jumbobone19 · 07-05-2020, 04:50 PM

If I have ever related to a post on here. Its this one here. Back in January of this year I was 245-250. I was determined to make some changes. Right now I currently sit at 210-215. It's all about consistency.
Its definitely not an easy task. Keep at it dude

Great initiative right there, this is an awesome idea. I am 5'7 and also way to fat for my good health. 220lbs and been battling this weight for ages now and every so often I get the motivation to eat right (diet) and train. Always with short term success as I usually do well and shed 30-50 lbs but within a year or so I also tend to put it back on!

Good luck and lets keep each other in check everyone!
