Fat smurf

[Araciel]

So after eating three burgers and a large fry and coke and frosty from Wendy's...

I've decided I'm too fat

30 years old - 6'6" and 270 lbs... likely 30% body fat right now.

had a rough time lately filled with illness and issues and nastiness and just ate whatever whenever and drank a lot.

to get off the 'i'm a big fat loser' talk -

ever hit a moment where you legitimately wanted to punch yourself in the face for being such a goon?

An entire chicken chimichanga, Safeway carrot cake and a vanilla coke will make anyone hate themselves. Sometimes we just need to gorge ourselves! Don't let it get you down, dear

Whenever I think about it I try to use my treadmill or go on a walk.

Strangely, when I weighed 130 pounds I had a 30% body fat. 4 years later I weigh 230 and I still have 30% body fat. I know it's a lot more fat weight, but it's weird it stayed the same percentage now that I'm way less active.

i come back from a run and stuff my face with nachos

i'm just trying to get rid of them

[Shlup]

I need to lose 16 more pounds to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight, and then 20 more after that to get back to my pre-trying-to-get-pregnant weight. I have a total mom-ass. Ugh. I am not my own MILF.

I lost a lot of weight back in late 2002 to summer of 2003. Started to put it back in in late 2007 and returned to my original form by 2010. I am roughly the weight of OP, but I have no clue what percentage my body fat is.

My problem was really how much I started to drink alcohol, and in turn, how much more crappy things I ate. My diet is still pretty terrible. Oh, and I also quit a job where I was VERY active (which helped keep the weight off).

I get depressed about it here and there, but my main problem is that when I come home from work, I am usually pretty burnt out. It's a lousy excuse, but a convenient one.

I go through phases. Sometimes I won't eat much throughout the week, other times I'll eat like a fat cow. It's a rough cycle.

i'm pretty chunky, so

I'm much larger than I want to be .

Shion, I've seen photos of you (on Facebook, of course) and you don't look 'large' at all! Don't be sad Shion, you look daamn fine. I say that as a friend, though. Geez don't want sharky taking that the wrong way.

I think what you should do though, if you still feel too large for yourself to feel comfortable, is to go the gym. I think you do that anyway, but going to the gym is a great way to both lost fat (and tone up as well) and is a great stress reliever. Just pop in the music and do some weights or go on the treadmill.

I'll leave it at that (lest I begin doing a full on pep talk) but don't be so silly Shion. You're wonderful

[Pumpkin]

thanks formy. I will say this, clothes cover up a lot.

I'm kind of in a weight loss rut. I eat less junk than I used to and go to the gym more and I've seen 0 progress and it's discouraging.

But that's very kind of you to say .

[Jinx]

Denmark and I both decided we're lazy and we need to lose weight, so we're going to start working out more or something.

I swam a whole lot today.

Rome wasn't built in a day Shion. I'm not expert on fitness, but perhaps you should go ask one of the highly trained experts at the gym for advice. I'm sure they'll be able to help you lose the weight more than my (highly untrained) mind could.

Have you considered you and sharky both training, to make it seem like less of a chore and more of a bonding experience?

I'm expecting I'll lose my extra weight very quickly when I move into my house in a month or two (needs rehab) and there aren't piles of delicious things in every cranny of the house.
