Hi my name is Jerry, pleased to meet you all.

I'm trying to stick to a diet and lose weight. I had the idea to find a place like this on the internet to maybe make some friends and maybe make a hobby out of it :)

I'm currently 5'11, 26 years old, and 350ish pounds.

Ive tried diets before, but not seriously. I either cave and break them or just seem to forget that I'm on them lol.

The lowest weight ive been since I was 18 is 318 pounds, highest is 365.

Ive trained for stamina before, Im sort of an amateur boxer, but never worked out with the idea of losing weight. I used to jog 5 miles, do an hour of cardio then stop at Wendy's on the way home from the gym and eat 5 burgers. That was at 318 pounds. Then I got a 12 hour a day job and pretty much quit working out. A few months back I went into a fight horribly out of shape at 366 pounds, I was doing maybe 3 miles a week and 2 hours of cardio and eating whatever I wanted. Plus my job wasent very physically demanding(Prison guard) Naturally I got beat up pretty bad and knocked out.

That inspired me to at least make minor adjustments. I started ordering water at restraunts, even though I was still eating buffet. I started back jogging, 2 miles a day. I did 10 miles the other day to see if I could. I'm at 350 pounds now. Cardio is fine, never out of breath unless I work at it, I feel like a healthy agile person, just blown up.

So for the first time im gonna try dieting and take it seriously and here I am and thats my story.

Good to meet ya :)

Welcome to the forum :D

That's a pretty impressive workout routine you have already, I don't even think I could keep up. What are your overall goals?
 
just goes to show that you can do some massive workouts and still not loose weight without doing a calorie check. Good on you mate for keeping active though, kudos! as for the wendies burgers, ive seen worse, but yeah you know what to do and how to do it eh :)

Good luck! i look forward to seeing the new 'cut' you :D
