A literal scale victory

lit1337 · 13 days

Thank you so much for posting! And great work! This is such an inspiration for me. I started my journey at 402. I am also 6'0 and 26 years old. I'm down to 350 since December, and I've been doing cardio/strength training the entire time.

If my arms look half as awesome as yours I will be freaking pumped (literally).

Have you had previous experience with strength training? How did you learn proper form with free weights? Right now I just use the weight machines at the Y, but I would really like to use free weights (but I have little to no experience, and I don't want to injure myself!).

But anyway, great job!

I AM the fat guy in the gym. I joined the Y back in December, and I have dropped 35lbs. I currently weigh 365. At first I was embarrassed, but now I don't give a crap. I keep thinking about how the other regulars are going to start telling their friends about this fat-ass who isn't so fat anymore. I just put on my headphones and go at it.

I weigh 367 pounds and a workout video I find very useful is by the biggest loser cadiomax dvd. It's a great workout for bigger folks like us! Keep up the good work!

I was in the Orlando airport late one night with my family waiting for my Dad's flight to arrive. (I was around 12....with younger much smaller bro age 9) it was really late, thus not many people milling around the airport. I'm looking around and I spot this HUGE guy. It was freaking Shaq. No one else had noticed him and his entourage. So my brother and I shyly walk over...
We walked over, got an autograph and he was a really nice guy. He asked us where we were from, age, our likes etc... I was really nervous. He asked my brother something........my bro responded (I had no freaking clue what he said). Shaq looks at me and says, "is that true big man?" I just nod and say yes....Shaq and his crew are now laughing like crazy....people have noticed the nba all-star so we walk away and let other people talk.
As we are walking away I asked my bro what he asked us.....Shaq- which one of you wins all the fights?...........undersized younger brother- I kick his butt ಠ_ಠ.

TL;DR- Shaq thinks my little brother can kick my ass

I love that play action deep throw down the middle. I would get so pumped every time he would wind up for that.

My brother was diagnosed with CP very early on. With physical therapy etc....you litteraly can not tell. His wife didn't even know until they were married. Granted, they diagnosed him VERY early

I'm at 380 right now, close to your starting weight. This is great motivation! What are people's reactions when they see the "new" you for the first time?

I've trimmed my diet to 2000-2200 cals a day. Been doing this since dec 1. Water is the only beverage I have had (except a few beers on my birthday). Whole wheat, fiber, fruits and veggies, lean meat, etc....and honestly I feel so much better on this new eating lifestyle than I did before
