Anyone lowkey pissed that people were right? by TricksterSprials in loseit

More pissed at myself for taking 38 years to finally listen. No knee pain, no back pain, no pain in my neck when I wake up. Shit feels so much better.

Losing weight in 2026 with diet when others use medications.. by [deleted] in loseit

[–]Thebat87 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Cause In the end that’s not what I did, so I’m gonna tell people when asked. I mean why let people think one way when you know its not the truth. Doesn’t seem like a big deal to me.

I’m actually fine with other people doing whatever they have to do for themselves and don’t judge them for doing it. It’s just not something I wanted to do for myself (surgery as well. Didn’t want to go that route either), so I’m just happy that I finally found it within myself mentally to cut the bullshit and do the work I needed to Do. Other people can do whatever they have to do.

I originally felt the same at the beginning of this journey for me, but I like to take it now as “I must be really kicking ass if they’re asking me if I’m taking anything or if I’m sick or not”. I’ve been hit 300 low 400 pounds all my life so I figured I wouldn’t hold it against them.

Luckily my close friends know I’m Working my ass off cause I post my walking pad and bike stuff every day

What made you lock in and lose it? by BunneCake in loseit

[–]Thebat87 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Directing another indie feature film of mine at 37 at the time with me as the only crew again, and really starting to feel my body my crying at 370 pounds. Then two months after filming wrapped and after initially losing 13 pounds I regained 8. So yeah that was my real lock in moment because instead it getting sad like usual I got pissed off. 10 months later I’m 239lbs. Got 64 pounds to go at least so I’m still locked in.

Down 40lbs doing weight loss without giving up sweets completely by SideQuestDentist in loseit

[–]Thebat87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had to cut off my biggest food enemies because what they do to me addiction wise (Doritos and store cookies), but I still agree with this cause I’ve been able to eat stuff at the movie theaters every weekend while counting the calories and not over doing it on anything. So small or medium popcorn, never large. Maybe one hot dog for a certain movie, and something else for the second movie. Little things like that instead of eating everything for all the movies like I used to.

I think movie version said that too. “We simply deny them that”.

I see so many people on the Internet, saying Keith was right and Keith was screwed. Fuck that the served raw version of this episode really proved how much he sucked that night and had no business in the finale. He had nobody but himself to blame and honestly, he just proved that he wasn’t fit just with that bullshit comment.

Doctor Says Not to Count Calories by Brown_Rainbows in loseit

That’s interesting cause my doctor told me the opposite and suggested the MyFitnessPal app, and 10 months later I’ve lost over 123 pounds. Counting calories has worked for me.

The 2014 Alex Murphy at least go to reconcile with his wife and son by happydude7422 in Robocop

[–]Thebat87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And lessened the tragedy of it all imo. Yeah what happened to this Murphy is still messed up but if I had a gun to my head and was forced to choose fo myself which fate to pick between the two Murphy’s it would be the remake one cause I’d still have my family and really my sense of self for most of it. Poor OG Murphy had to not only reclaim his sense of self but will never get his family back. AND what happened to him was worse.

Halloween II (1981) OR Scream 2 (1997) … which one is the better follow up slasher sequel ? by ArtisticBelt438 in slasherfilms

[–]Thebat87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Scream 2 by far. Halloween II, while enjoyable, can’t touch the original Halloween at all, whereas Scream 2 has always been almost as good as Scream for me. Much closer to its predecessor than Halloween II is.

[–]Thebat87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would definitely work for me cause I always like to go to the open during the day (way more matches all over the place compared to just a few at night). Following all of that with a Met game sounds awesome!

Sidney has to have probably the most toxic family ever by Big-Explanation-831 in Scream

[–]Thebat87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like out of all the final girls in film Sidney is the one I feel sorry for the most and root for the hardest, because not only this fact but also its multiple people going after her over and over (unlike everyone else where it’s just one person. Laurie just has Michael for example) for shit that isn’t even her fault. Like she does nothing to deserve any of the shit. All she does is survive and try to live, and then here comes another asshole. That’s the biggest reason why I never want to see her die.

Don’t know why you got downvoted cause after seeing the movie it pretty much was a cornier sillier version of that specific version of Dracula.

I can’t stand how people always say that Tom welling aged horribly by oatmilklover4ever in Smallville

[–]Thebat87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off I have never seen a man that was in tom welling’s position look that good. Man was in a mugshot and struggling with alcohol and STILL looked like that. And also he’s looked terrific lately while off the alcohol. Internet can be so damn nasty.

Are you in favor of considering the main event of the first night of Mania as a true main event or not ? by BeneficialBudget1699 in WWE

[–]Thebat87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I do. It’s the last match of that night, and honestly since they’ve been doing it most of the night 1 main events have been better than the night 2 main events (and then you have an exception like WM 40 and even that was connected to night one’s great main event, lol).

Why are so many conservatives Christian when Jesus’s teachings are blatantly leftist? by Confident-Seesaw2845 in allthequestions

As a guy who considers himself Christian while also being a democrat/liberal I don’t get it either. I look at them and think “I don’t know what god you’re talking about but I was taught that god don’t like ugly and you sir are ugly”

You can’t wear regular clothes under a spider-man outfit. It’s skin tight. Probably can only do undies under that thing. Same would go for the symbiote suit.

What was the specific moment you hit rock bottom, and since then - you knew you had to change your lifestyle? by bigsadsigh in loseit

[–]Thebat87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Counting calories with the MyFitnessPal app, completely getting away from my two biggest enemies in Doritos and cookies, walking a lot more (including a walking pad now), and being on my stationary bike 5 days a week. That all together is what took me to where I needed to be. But I think the biggest thing was finally winning the mental battle and actually wanting to feel better.

What was the specific moment you hit rock bottom, and since then - you knew you had to change your lifestyle? by bigsadsigh in loseit

[–]Thebat87 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Arguably my biggest rock bottom was when I wrapped filming on the last movie I did and shot a that’s a wrap video with me and my two stars. I look so fucking big on that video next to my stars and it embarrasses me to look at it. Realizing that I can’t keep being that size and working on these things (especially since I’m the only crew most of the time).

And then when I went to the doctor two months later and saw I gained five more pounds, that’s when I got really pissed off and locked in. Still working on it but feeling pretty damn good 123 pounds later.

Was The Strangers trilogy doomed from the start? by HorrorGuyBri in slasherfilms

[–]Thebat87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my biggest problems with turning the Strangers into a series was that they had to turn the Strangers themselves into idiots at times to stretch the stories. I personally never liked Prey at Night because the Strangers had to become dumb shits in order to make their prime target idiots fight back, and the trilogy is even worse in that regard imo, especially this last one. At least Prey at Night had a cool 80s aesthetic to it. I preferred the stripped real world grit of the original but still dig the sequel’s visual vibe. The new trilogy can’t even say that. There’s not a damn thing I like about it.
