I'm only writing this because I am at a point where my mind is so jumbled with past workouts and accomplishments that I don't know where to start to get my fat ass back in shape... I am 5'6" and weigh 250 lbs... ( I weighed 155 about 7 yrs ago now) so I'm not a fat fool no double chin and **** I just have a huge butt and gut right now...I jog around 3.5 to 5 miles a week, but that **** isn't working... I can job 3 miles straight and be sore but rarely tired... I remember when I ran track we used to warm up with 2 miles, that's why I feel my running isn't working...traditional working out and running have become so boring to me, but I reall NEED to get back in shape... I would love to join some type of fighting club, but where I live we have threee boxing rings, one is for the solidiers and the other two are for the young mexicans... I am at my wits end..

Eat 3 regular meals, missing out 2 meals and eating a large amount at night does not = the same as eating 3 meals a day, even if its only 2000 calories (500 less than a male should have). Eating like that slows down your metabolism which means that your body believes food sources are scarce and reacts by increasing the amount it stores as fat. Also, cut out the alcahol. You sound like a stressed man who is married, guess is you like to have the few odd beers here and there? That slows down the metabolism too. If you can run that much and not feel tired then you're not pushing yourself hard enough. If you're heat rate doesn't rate around 120 then you're barely achieving a thing. Maintain a heart rate of around 120-165. Below this and you're not doing a great deal but warming up the muscles. Also, don't push yourself too hard if you're aiming to lose weight, you don't want to move above 170bpm max or else you begin to use glycogen as a source, not fat, meaning you will minimise how many calories you lose. Running is fine, joining a gym is not always nessecary but it would help because using things such as the rowing machines, cycling machines and cross trainers will do alot of good.

Good luck, hope this helps.

Definitely need the metabolic boost and if you've got wind to run 3+ miles and not be tired either run faster or run until you are seriously winded. At 5'6 250 you are putting some serious stress on your organs when you are resting and that as much as anything will prevent you from losing weight as your body will hoard calories as a resting energy source. It's a viscious cycle at this point because your body needs to lose weight but regular means at that size and density won't cut it. You might even consider a surgical asist to get the ball rolling before you experience Kidney or liver troubles.
