... Probably the first time I've posted in here, I'd realised the other day that I'd suddenly become what is technically known as a "Fat Cunt".

It hadn't really dawned on me, as no part of my body stores fat other than my gut... arms, legs, all the rest - still normal.

But I was storing fat deposits around the middle. Didn't bother me. "**** it, I'll do it tomorrow." I watch boxing, don't do it.

But before I knew it, I'd eaten so many mars bars in a "sit down all day" office job, and drank so much coke I'd turned into a ****ing fat bastard.

I looked at myself in the mirror and thought "what a fat CUNT!"

In 2005 I'm ashamed to say that I'd drank so much Coke (I didn't even know it was fattening) I'd gone up to 215lbs. I went on the Atkins Diet and got down to 195lbs very quickly. It helps that I'm not NATURALLY a fat cunt, it had just crept up on me.

But I'd started to get up to about 199lbs again, so I decided that I'd increase this with EXERCISE. I'm walking around 50 miles a week now, and it's coming back off.

I'm assuming that this lard is just stuff that's built up, unchecked, over YEARS, and not anything else?

Anyway, after a month I'm now down to 193lbs, with my ultimate plan to get down to 168lbs or thereabouts.

Any tips that don't involve heated exercise? Or shall I just carry on as I am and see what happens?

if i were you, i would start with eating about 6 meals a day, proportion the carbs / proteins / fats adequately. thats number one.

some more intense exercise would be greatly beneficial as well.

u didnt really list details as to whether or not u go to a gym, jog, whatever.

give us some more info and im sure we'll be able to help u out.

but the key is diet, and cardio cardio cardio. increase the cardio, clean ur diet, and the fat will MELT off.

if u want more detailed info, again list EVERYTHING u do, eat, workout, etc...

This is the thing man, I hardly eat ANYTHING. When you say 6 meals, I probably eat just three.

There are a few carbs in my food - cereal, bread, etc. - but the stuff I listed above about coke/chocolate was 2005 me.

For exercise, I'm afraid I just walk now, that's it.

I really can't understand where the weight has come from, unless it's just an age thing... my metabolism used to take care of it.

i been there man! i was 17 stone 3! am now 10 stone 10! in pounds thats roughly 241 pounds down to 149! id say if its woking keep at it! if you want to speed it up a little jog an our or so after every meal!

He means 6 small meals not regular sized ones. Around 300 to 400 calories on average. High protein foods fill you up for longer if you keep getting to hungry. Stop with the mars bars snack on fruits they fill you up until your next meal. You said you work in an office, do some research on ab exercises you can do in your chair (you dont even have to stop working) just to keep your metabolism up a bit. Get up and go for water more often your moving and drinking lots of water helps maintain weight. Lifting weights isnt that intense you could add some muscle which will help you burn more calories just sitting around. Anything that gets the heart rate up will help....if youve got a girlfriend or wife you could.....:luvbed:...But really the best way to lose weight is to just get up and run. The hard part is getting back in shape, its easy to maintain once your there. Dam I talk alot......err type

annie stop posting like you intested :lol1:

Truth is, eating better can make you loose weight faster then excercise. I know people on this forum prob don't want to hear that though. One of the easiest tips is don't eat or drink soda after dinner. You don't want to sleep while your body is just storing crap food.

Another trick I did , or do when trying to loose weight is, eat well all week, or generlally well. If you succed eat one meal of anything you want each sat or sunday. As long as your not going on a all day gorge haha. Just one dope a$$ meal. Anyway, good luck.

Eating right... and RUNNING. don't walk... jog at a slow pace or whatever pace is comfortable for you to be able to do it for 30 mins at least.

Cheers for the tips, guys... I mean, I figure that if I confess to being a fat cunt on here it will shame me into losing it, right?

Though the funny thing is, no one ever thinks of me as fat - I've got a thing going on with a baggy shirt.

This is my situation im 210 with a gut and need to get down to 165

An unforeseen problem I have is the weather in England. It's been raining virtually non-stop for three days so I've been forced to abandon my walks.

DAMN DUDE!! i thought u were an AM fighter how the hell did u get so out of shape??

you got a long road ahead of you brother...

Not eating enough can put your body into a "starve prevention"mode in which it will try to store more fat than it usually does from the foods you eat. Eating the right amount of food could probably help you lose weight, combined with excercise of course.

Anorak make yourself a journal and write down you goals and progress if you dont write them down in a paper it will be just a dream no more nor less.

It picture yourself know and imagine what you are going to be with 6-pack in 1/2 year

Good Post.

This time last year i was around 256lbs (a ****ing fat cunt). Now I am about 190lbs. The best way I found to lose weight is basically watch what you eat and substitue the **** you normally eat for a healthier option and things that you like. So instead of drinking coke drink water/fruit juice. Instead of eating crisp/chocolate eat fruit. Obvioulsy mix it up a bit otherwise it will get boring but I promise you the weight will fall off. I cant stand people who go on about the atkins diet or the cabbage soup diet. Diet's in my eyes are a load of ****. Eat healthy and excercise. That's all you need to get in better shape and live a healthier lifestyle.

Also 12 months ago I couldn't run for ****. I swear to god the first time I ran i probably covered about 800mtrs and I was shagged. I kept at it and now I can run 6 miles quite comfortably and at a good pace. Obviously it has helped me lose more weight aswell. If you don't like running or feel like you cant then go swimming. It's low impact and again the weight will absolutely fall off.

In my eyes people that want to lose weight WILL lose weight. Aslong as you're motivated and want it enough it will happen. Set goals, stick to them and take pictures of yourself now and then again in a few weeks so you can see the progress you're making. Nothing will spur you on more than looking at pictures of yourself and seeing how you're improving.

finally.....

Good Luck :fing02:

God bless ya Tuggers. :kiss:

just try to lose a few pounds a month, it's much easier and less hard on ( i said hardon) the body to get rid of it gradually. plan for losing like 3-5 lbs a month or something. long walks each day will do it, i knew a guy who went from 230 lbs to 190 by going for long walks each day. the dude was happy when he could see his dick again, and he started getting laid.

Annie, u need to **** that ginger in the office, or i'll fly over there and do her for u

There is only one way to lose fat. Bust your ass. Anyone that tells you anything different is full of ****. If you are busting your ass and the fat still isn't coming off, there is only one solution. Bust your ass harder.

Bad week this week.... today was the first day I could go for a walk as the weather's been so bad. Plus, I got so tired on Tuesday that I broke my eating pattern and had some chocolate for the first time in months.

However, no fluctuation, I stayed at 195.5lbs.


I might boost this with the Atkins diet for a bit.

DONT the Atkins diet is a bad idea. Dude track your calories. See how many your consuming a day right now, then try and reduce it by 500 by making healthier food choices. One thing that people forget...Butter and Mayo are very high in calories. If you reduce the amount of calrories you take in and try and do a bit of exercise you'll lose weight. I helped this girl lose weight with the simplest routine.
Every morning she would skip for 3 two minute rounds with a 1 minute rest break and do 25 crunches and 15 push ups during that rest.

An unforeseen problem I have is the weather in England. It's been raining virtually non-stop for three days so I've been forced to abandon my walks.

Thats a bull**** excuse dude. If you start making excuses you are not going to be successful. All rain means is you are going to get wet. Ive gone running in worse **** then rain.

Don't do diets. If you are really serious about meeting your goals you have to put in the work. There are no miracle cures to fatness, just hard work.

If the weather is bad, check out a stationary bike, or recumbent cycle with a separate Polar (cheap) heart rate monitor. Put it in front of your TV, and use it. Dick’s Sporting Goods is a great place to find good deals. You could also do many of the recommended resistance exercises that have been mentioned throughout the forums.

Seriously, I'm not eatng bad stuff. I said I was at the start of the thread, but that was two years ago. These days I just eat healthy stuff.

I did the Atkins Diet for 24 hours... I've done it for three weeks before.

I just lost another 3lbs in a DAY, but it was giving me headaches, and I could hardly walk. Even worse, I couldn't concentrate on pwning. So I came off it today.

Current weight: 194lbs.

**** the atkins diet.

Annie, what you need to do is just cut down and stop snacking.

Breakfast: Slice of toast, cup of tea/coffee (no sugar)
Snack: Fruit.
Dinner: Sandwich, yoghurt, piece of fruit, glass of Orange juice.
Snack: Fruit.
Tea : Chicken/Rice... or beans on toast... or something small and healthy..not fatty.

Eat like that 6 days a week. Treat yourself on a Saturday night or something.

Exercise 2 or 3 times a week - like go to a gym, run or something like that.

The pounds will fly off.

HAH!try running 6in the morning with heavy snow and 10 minus deegres.

get an anorak and go for a walk ore use a stationary bike ore something.

Is Subways bad for you? I have one a day, bacon on wheat bread, no filling.


What you guys don't seem to be getting is that I DON'T eat badly. I USED to... in 2005. But now I don't have coke, sweets, nothing. I just eat natural food, and not often. But I'm still a fat cunt.

hows the training going champ?

what you have to do is take it slowly. all those high profile diets are nothing but money makers for companies. from what i know, there are only two ways to lose fat fast and that is liposuction and something known as the velocity diet. the velocity diet is grueling though from what i understand. but for everyone else, you just have to eat below maintenance (around 500 calories below maintenance) and workout at least 5 times a week if you want to lose 2 pounds a week. take things slowly, there is way less pressure and when you do lose the weight, it generally stays off.

get a workout program going, as a matter of fact just go to bodybuilding.com and look up the workout programs those guys use. i would suggest instead of doing those walks that you sign up to a gym so that there is nothing that deters you from the workout like weather.

Finally worked it out. I knew there had to be an X Factor in all this, because whenever I ask the question I get stuff like "you should cut out chocolate" (I don't eat it anyway), "you should do more exercise" (I do a bit... certainly not so little to justify me being overweight).

I weighed myself over Christmas, and I'd lost 5lbs for no reason at all. The only factor was, at work to keep my breath fresh I use chewing gum. Even though it's sugar free, there's 68g of carbs in it, and I was going through a few packets a day through sheer boredom.

I cut it right down, just one after my dinner, and weighed myself today. My weight had been fluctuating around the 196lbs mark and had gone up to 198lbs... three weeks later and it's down to 188lbs. A loss of 10lbs in three weeks.

Back when I was in the Army, I found that ****ty weather was just about the best way to test my discipline and resolve. I used to be stationed in upstate New York (10th Mountain, Ft. Drum). As you can guess, the weather up there can get pretty ****ing brutal in the winter. A lot of people thought I was a bit nutty, but I used to take advantage of every rain, snow and sleet storm to go running (mostly with boots on); many times at two or three in the morning. I obviously couldn't run too fast given the slippery ground, but man did I get a good work out. Most of all, it made me feel like I was some ****ing wild man, like Sly in Rocky IV. It's tough to not make excuses when you're out of shape, but as the adage goes "ever since they invented excuses, we've never run out of them." If some rainy weather is stopping you, there will be many other things that get in your way.

Anyway, I'm going to take my own advice since I could stand to drop 10-15 at the moment. Good luck with your weight loss.

Though the funny thing is, no one ever thinks of me as fat - I've got a thing going on with a baggy shirt.

Take a picture of yourself without a shirt on and put it up on here......that should motivate you just fine.

Also, you gotta upgrade from walking to running. That's where you will really start to shed the pounds man. Make yourself run in the rain man. Right now Chicago has pretty ****ty weather here. There's rain and then snow and its ****ing cold but something about pushing myself to run through these types of conditions create some kind of positive reinforcement for me to continue to do it and I feel awesome afterwards. The hardest thing seriously is the mental attitude that you strive to acquire, to push yourself to get out and run in ****ty weather and to push to run that extra mile or couple of yards or whatever. You start to see results though and thats what makes you continue. Just buck up man and you'll get to 165 no doubt.

Read two posts up.

Still dont cover the tits and nips:boobies:

Thanks for the tip :rolleyes:

Anorak:

I went from 205 to 165 in about 8 months. The keys for me were:

1.) Quit sugar. All sugar. Especially soda, bottled juice, and anything with high fructose corn syrup.

2.) Quit eating potatoes and pasta.

3.) Eat all the lean meat you want. Chicken, lean steak, turkey, even pork (trimmed.)

4.) Eat all the fresh (steamed, raw, boiled, grilled, whatever) vegetables and fruit (not canned fruit) you want. When you get hungry, have half a dozen kiwi fruit. After a couple weeks of this, your body will love you for it. You will feel awesome. I promise.

4a.) Soup is your friend. Have a bowl of soup before meals, or in place of a meal. It's cheap, it fills you up, and it's low-calorie.

5.) Drink all the water and black coffee or plain tea you want.

6.) This is gross, but if you've been eating crap for a year, you might want to do a psyllium cleanse. This will help flatten your gut and it will kick-start your metabolism. Search for it on this site and you'll find my thread about it.

7.) No bread after your evening workout; on days you're not working out, no bread at all.

8.) No alcohol after dinner. (I often have a glass of wine with dinner and occasionally a knock of Scotch after work.)

9.) Run. Every day, for an hour. Starting right now. Go run till you can't run, then walk till you can run again.

10.) Some kind of exercise in addition to running. Pickleball, or dodgeball, or weightlifting -- something fun. For me, of course, it was boxing. But just pick anything that makes you sweat that you WANT to go do a few nights a week, then go do it.

That's about it. Give 'em hell.

Thanks for that, Fraidy Cat.


My problem with weight loss has been two-fold:


1. It does seem as if chewing gum ****ed with my metabolism somehow.

2. Because I eat just about right, I'd weigh the same every morning.. my only problem was the excess I'd built up over a few years of misuse. So I had to cut out a meal in order to lose the build-up. Which is obviously not that healthy.


Anyway, this morning I weighed in at 2lbs above my ideal weight range, which is pleasing. There was a time when I was 42lbs above it... what a fat bastard, how did I let myself go so badly? :eek:
