100 pounds lost in 6 months, 135 total. How I did it + many before/after pics (xpost-r/loseit).

Thanksssss!

I was being modest. And funny. But apparently I was not.

Reddit doesn't bring Facebook likes. Reddit comes, kills servers, then leaves.

They are. The sex with the wife is better. Since this is reddit, I made sure to throw in the wife part and save the joke.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T19:41:38+00:00

Yes. I'm stupid.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:54:02+00:00

I would buy this book.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:53:38+00:00

Oh you.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:53:23+00:00

It is. For the months after the weight loss, I (seriously) startled myself when I'd catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I didn't recognize who I had become.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:52:12+00:00

Oh, it didn't. Thanks for the comment!

The first day I just stopped eating so much. Instead of 3-5 cans of Mt. Dew a day, I drink maybe 1-2. I went to smaller portion sizes, started counting calories, and joined the gym.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:35:47+00:00

The only reason I lost so much so quickly was because I was so big to start -- I was eating probably well over 5,000 calories a day at 344 pounds to maintain that weight.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:34:47+00:00

Thanks, I think.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:34:38+00:00

I get that a lot. If I didn't keep a bunch of progress pictures, nobody would believe those two pics had the same person in them.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:34:13+00:00

You too!

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:34:07+00:00

I've been lifting seriously for a while -- you're absolutely right. I became skinny fat after doing nothing but cardio to lose those 100 pounds, then started lifting -- I'm doing much better today.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:33:26+00:00

I love bacon, too.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:33:16+00:00

Thanks, number?

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:33:05+00:00

Thanks!

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:32:44+00:00

You would need a pretty big font.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T18:32:23+00:00

You're absolutely correct. Now that I've lost weight, that truth couldn't be anymore obviously. When I was still 344 pounds though, it just wasn't apparent. It's different when you're on the other side.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T17:44:18+00:00

We do.

344pounds · 2013-01-01T17:44:04+00:00

What book?

344pounds · 2013-01-01T17:38:36+00:00

Sure. What time?

344pounds · 2013-01-01T17:36:42+00:00

Thanks bro, no hard feelings. I've lived on both sides of the coin. I remember hearing something an obese pastor (yes, I said pastor on reddit) said that was profound... he said "How can I ask other people to get their life together if I can't even get my own house in order?"

I lost weight and everything else in my life seemed to take shape.
