well the story goes..... ive been heavy my entire life. my highest weight was 379lbs. that was the around December of 08'. so i decided to start going to the gym again after 3 yrs of school an work. athe the time i was in a relationship with a tiny 130lbs girl who ive known for 9 yrs. she is so beautiful. unfortunately we were having problems and she started to see herself as more of a catch. so she broke up with me after a yr an ahalf long relationship. and has been dating thiner more "attractive" guys. so threw the depression an tryn to keep my mind clear i started working out a lil harder but faltering up an down with my workouts an scheduling. so for the last 7 months weve been apart ive been telling my self if i can be myself but thiner an more attractive a situation like this will never happen again due to my appearance. so i dont have a good pic of me being 379 around dec-jan of 08. but here you go. updates will be posted

at the moment this is my plateau. so im considering stoping with most of the weight training an focus on 10x more cardio / arobic.
 
You're doing so great! You can see the changes! Keep it up!

And honestly, if she left you because she thinks she's too hot for you.. she can't be that great on the inside. You can do way better and you will :) Use her as motivation to lose all the weight and be like hey, i'm hot now, look what you missed out on! :D

You can do it!
 
I never like seeing the tragic break up stories (especially over looks). She doesn't sound all too beautiful. I hope you're doing this for yourself. There are many less superficial fish in the sea.

What's your height? What's your exercise program and what are you eating now? It probably has more to do with what you're eating and doing than doing too much weight training. Wouldn't your body be reshaping to accomodate the extra muscle? A couple months around the same weight while doing all the right things is very tough. I definitely see the differences from when you began. You can do this. Good luck.
 
Your pics are not "grotesque"!!!! You are a very handsome man embarking on a journey to being freakin' HAWT. Can't wait to see less of you!
 
Me too, I'm 5'7'', 233 lbs, been overweight since I was 14 ish and got addicted to an online game...don't ever go there, trust me. I wasn't overweight when I was younger., I seem to tell myself often and think the reason why I don't have a girlfriend is I'm fat, as far as I know girls just don't like me. I've never had a girlfriend, and that's one of the reasons I want to lose weight, so I'll be more attractive..but I think the real reason is I just haven't gone out much due to feeling bad about my weight, and someone should really like me for who I am, not what I look like on the outside, as hard as that can be. That's one of my motivations to keep going, let's do this together, I know you can do it!

antyoch- shes is a good person. an not superficail she likes the way i look an always did. hell back in grade school we were each others first/first kinda thing when we dated back then. but im sure, do to some other relationship probs an friends telling her she could do better on top of having other seemingly better looking more fit men looking at her she wanted to try other things. cant blame anyone for wanting something better

ill always love her no matter what shes beautiful

Doomedtotheday -well im 5 11. i pritty much just walk/jog for 2 miles daily an do arms an abs every other day(as of lately). but i have short busts of lazyness for a week every now an then. i eat regularly. no counting or anything. i have done away with soda for a longtime. my eating habits can splurge though. i know i need to pay more attention to what i eat. but i want to get down to 200-220ish. i might look sickly any smaller. ive got a large/wide frame

owl thanks. this forum is very inspirational.
 
she is so beautiful. unfortunately we were having problems and she started to see herself as more of a catch.

Have you seen yourself? Despite you feeling fat you are actually really really ridiculously good looking! You're the catch!
Start feeling confident about yourself - and no more using words like "grotesque"!
Looking forward to seeing your progress!
 
Just my .02 cents but here it goes. Don't ever do this for anyone other than your family and YOURSELF! Period, the end.

YOU will feel better.

YOU will be able to live longer.

YOU will be able to do the things you want to do.


You are young and the time is now. Educate yourself now so you wont have to worry about it when you are older. I made that mistake and waited. I let me weight control me. I wasnt able to do somethings but that has changed. You dont ever want to be at a point where you tell your daughter you cant go on a rollercoaster with her because daddy is too fat. Trust me on this one, it's not fun.

You are down 25 lbs and kicking ass. Track your calories to see where you are and fight through the plateau. Weights are very important while you lose becuase you dont want to lose muscle. A good balence of cardio/strength training is key.

KEEP IT UP. PLEASE!

I've been in your situation but let me just say, use the girl for motivation to hit the gym if you need it, but you HAVE to do this for yourself. Why? Because YOU will always be in your life. After a certain amount of time has past you will lose feelings for your last girl, then she won't be an inspiration anymore. You can do it, just keep getting up when you fall.
 
you ppl are jus way to kind and uplifting. i wish i had ppl like you all around me everyday.
i do think i can be handsome at times. i know i have to do this for myself an nothing else.
i think ima update once a month. hopefully every 8-10lbs so around sept 8th or so
 
You'll get to where you want to by September (that's just a few more days away!! Gosh!)

If you'll be updating us once a month, I hope you're keeping a handy journal, too, just so you don't forget the commitment you've made. Best of luck to losing weight and becoming fit and fab!
 
I just read your story again and i can feel you...myself ive been heavy all my life and always when relationships ended i blamed it on my weight and said that they wanted something better....but finally ive got to the understanding that i am too good for them.And i mean that....You ARE going to stick to your exercise and diet cause you ARE attractive even with the extrapounds...imagine getting into shape!
and there are a lot of other plus that come with a fit you!HEALTH the most serious motivation!!!the way you will feel every day , your self esteem....ect ect ect///Must do it for your self.....its fantastic to love ypur body!you can do it and as i said already waiting for your updates!and the foroum is always here if you need help or even encouragment!
 
Congratulations on your success so far! You look incredible! - When you're ex gets a peek at the new you, she's going to regret ever saying goodbye. I betcha any money, she'll come crawling back. Keep up the amazing work!
