Bettil, you fat fukk, eating cheerios for breakfast is a good diet????

Creature you're a endomorph, you're better off turning that fat into muscle, than trying to lose weight.....

[Cap dat 4ss]

Creature! My man! This aint rocket surgery, now listen to opie and get to work! Hard work = results!

Cheerios (whole grain cereal) with skim milk for breakfast is a great breakfast, low in sugar low in fat, its probably the best cereal you can eat and a lot better than the donuts and mcmuffins this porker was engulfing prior and a lot cheaper so he can put that extra money on a game instead of into the walls of his stomach and the comode. If you're training a guy for the Olympics I would say he should eat oatmeal instead but I mean come the **** on this guy is 300 pounds of fat, if he doesnt eat a Big Mac for breakfast hes winning a battle

[CreaturE]

Incredible assumptions yet again betti. But yes Cap, I'm definitely fading this guy. He has nothing positive to say other than I ate one good meal, everything else is just a negative, derogatory, false comment. Opie is right.

[CreaturE]

Alright guys, off to bed. I should be able to make it into the gym tomorrow to do more than what I did today. I will be doing a lot more upper body work than before since my damn thigh still hurts beyond belief. I hope I can get a good stretch going and it will allow me to get back on my horse and run/jog/walk for at least a mile.

Also, when are you guys more interested in having me weigh in? Saturday or Sunday?

[chemicalbrother]

just stumbled across this kist now as I'm about to pass out..anything you need brother. I could probably stand to use a few myself, maybe you already got a schedule because I haven't had time to read the whole thread. Spend my sent points on a dumb parlay, those are fun.

I'll holler at you this weekend.

[COYLO]

im doing mine on a sat bro, can you swim?? it's not a high impact exercise and you use nearly every muscle group

[cant call it]

Get plenty of stretching done creature. Stretching is the key to building a solid foundation to support your body. You must do breathing exercises as well. Drink lots of water and eat right bro. Good luck today, try not to lollygag and stare at the women too long fukk stick.

[robmpink]

Call me the bad guy. Buddy, it is creative you ask for betpoints to motivate you. I get it. I do feel you will lose weight. What I think may be just as big, no pun intended, is a already or potential gambling problem. It will wipe out any progess you made.

[305GURU]

CreaturE ur 21, no need to panic on ur weight, BuT u have to start now, if u want to take control of it. Im working hard myself on dropping a few pounds, its not easy but if u work hard and stay committed to it you'll start to see results...no sodas and junk food...try a light jog or long walks to help u shed pounds...u play any sports? Basketball is a must! Lots of cardio and fun to play imo, good luck sir u can DO IT...stay positive, eat smart and get active...laters...GURU

[GettingScrilla]

You if you hurt ur thigh try warming it up on the stationary bike b4 you run or jog...gotta test the limits of it before you fully use the mussell. GL CreaturE Im routing for ya

[no1here]

if you haven't done so already buy brown rice and sea salt. a serving daily will give you energy plus other benefits. First thing after waking and remembering your dreams drink water. Tie a watermelon to your waist for a hour. If you quit drinking booze totally I will double the points and cash.

[CreaturE]

no1here, your offer is incredible man. However, I'm 21! It only happens once. There will most certainly be a time where I have a few beers. I definitely have no ambition to get DRUNK anymore, however, I do love the taste of beer. Absolutely, ABSOLUTELY no more hard alcohol for me.

im doing mine on a sat bro, can you swim?? it's not a high impact exercise and you use nearly every muscle group

I can swim like a fish, contrary to what many of you may believe. When I was younger my mother made me continue taking swimming lessons (even after I graduated) until my younger brother graduated. Fortunately for me, he was a terrible swimmer and made me go through 3 times lmao.

@robmpink I don't understand exactly what you mean?

@GettingScrilla Yeah bud, I know. Thanks a lot for the information.

Guys I really do appreciate all this feedback, support, help, whatever you wanna call it. It's incredible and really making me push hard. It's hard to not eat an egg with a few strips of bacon for breakfast every day. It's hard to not bring full fat hot dogs to work for lunch every day. And most of all it was an incredible journey going to that buffet at the casino last night. I am still incredibly proud of myself for how well I handled it.

THANKS!

[bballs84]

Keep fighting the good fight Creature

[GettingScrilla]

Can't stay away from this thread! Are you considering changing your diet completely? Have you ever herd of the "Paleo" style of eating. Really not a diet but a life style change. You dont eat anything that is process, only foods, veggies, meats that were available when cave me where around. I have seen people take to this form of selective eating and turn into the incredible hulk...seriously look into it. I know the 1st two weeks or maybe more are painful as your body adjust but after that the fat just melts off of your body. Its pretty incredible. I'd give it a looksy...

[CreaturE]

No, I've never heard of that. That sounds insanely difficult though lol. I don't know, I suppose I should read into it, sounds rather interesting.

[iceminers26]

how's it going Creature? keep fighting the good fight bud


I had a solid first day, biked on the stationary and stayed away from meat (can't remember last time I went a day without some type, whether chicken, beef, pork, etc). Only 1 day, but a start.

[importmoon]

creaturE, fyi gym can't make u lose weight it can make u more healthy, its what u put into ur mouth that counts, final note cut down junk food and sodas those would destroy u drinks water instead~~~ GL

[CreaturE]

Awesome ice26! It's going real well. Other than the buffet I went to, even though I was very controlled, I've been doing great.

Thank you import.

[Dirty Sanchez]

Creature you've been vanquished to the Saloon...it's all good...press forward. That cabbage diet is for people who are crashing for a couple of weeks...it's not a long term solution.

[Sdotbold]

If you get down to 160lbs by June 15th 2012, I will paypal you $250..

As will I. Good luck with your venture. I am only 5'7 and i weighed 235 at my heaviest. I got down to 173 pounds. Im back up close to 200 again tho now. Wish i would have stayed with it. Its tough.

[CreaturE]

I never said the cabbage diet was long term, the person I recommended it to was someone that had 2 weeks to lose some weight lol.

[flyingillini]

Creature, you should include about 1.5 grams of yayo each day as well.

[Cap dat 4ss]

Hey bud, hope your doing well and still with it.

[FindTheLock]

Try eating Fish and chicken and a lot of broccoli. Get a healthy but small meal in every 2 hours. Try to get at least 1 meal with salmon in it a week, it has good fat in it. Eat only natural peanut butter, and have oatmeal and egg whites with hot sauce for breakfast. Once you eat really clean for a few weeks you forget what good food tastes like and you then begin to eat to feel good not to taste something good. Only drink water or low sodium V8 juice during the day. In the Morning drink black coffee or sugar free tea to get the caffeine to jump start your metabolism, use honey for a sweetener but only lightly. Lift weights and do high reps and forget about trying to bulk up. Work on lean muscle gains and try to do cardio at least 3 or 4 times a week. Don't do too much to start off because you will get discouraged by how hard it is and might not want to try again the next day. Take it one day at a time bud. I am 6'4 240 right now, but I am trying to get down to 215. So we will take a part of this journey together my friend. I respect your honesty. It is hard to publicly post pictures of yourself in a part of your life you're not happy or confident with. Don't let anyone discourage you or tell you it isn't possible. I weighed 265 and got down to 220 by eating properly and lifting weights. Work your legs and your core doing exercises you feel comfortable with. Try doing some pull ups with a chair until you can get some in without the chair. Pull ups, push ups, and crunches are great workouts if you can't make it to the gym. Losing weight and keeping the weight off is a lifestyle change. Cup cakes and doughnuts are very tasty, but they must remain rarities in your life if you want to stay healthy. Good luck man. I hope you reach your goals. If you want to start becoming the you you want to be, then never say I will do it tomorrow when it can be done today.

[bettilimbroke999]

When you're in bed and a girl asks you to eat her out dont actually eat her and say you misunderstood

[CreaturE]

FindTheLock, thank you very much man. GREATLY appreciated. Great insight and interesting techniques. The only problem I have with the above is I absolutely hate salmon lol. Not that I can't substitute it with other fish however.
and let's get this thing together!

[caseyking2]

I gained a bunch of weight several years ago when I quit smoking and I did the carb diet and some how I lost all my weight and some. I love meat and cheese so I figured it would be perfect till I realized I couldn't eat bread and that sucked. Good luck to ya on how ever you loose it

[Cougar Bait]

Good luck Creature

I know you must try hard to not eat all that delicious sausage and bratwurst at Miller Park

That's a great stadium

[8ArIvd5]

haven't read the whole thread, but i'll give you some points when you show some results.

have you looked into the glycemic index? good way to lose weight and keep your glucose levels consistent.

[andywend]

CreaturE,
I know where you're coming from as I am 5'10" and checked in at 265 about 4 months ago.

I decided enough was enough and lost 20 pounds in the first month. I got real sick (critically) and lost another 30 pounds as I spent about a month in the hospital and didn't eat anything.

Since coming home, my appetite is nowhere near the same and I have taken off an additional 10 pounds over the past 2 months and I now tip the scales at 205.

The most important thing when it comes to losing weight is to go to bed EVERY NIGHT hungry. Don't eat anything other than carrots/celery within 4-6 hours of going to sleep and the weight will fly off. Spend 30 minutes per day walking at a brisk pace and the weight flys off even faster.

Heres 100 points to get you started and let me know when you hit 250.

Best of luck to you.

[Lookingtostart]

Here's something that will give you a head start:

Buy some tamarind in brick form, they're really cheep from Indian supermarkets. Take a large chunk off the tamarind brick and leave it soaking in distilled water to soften it up, squash it up, get the juices out as much as you can(any which way you can I suppose), then sift it and drink the juice. Don't leave home for the next 6-8 hours.

This is just a start but it's also always good when you've eaten badly.

Andy, you seem like a good guy so I'll be easy here but what you say about eating before bed and going to bed hungry is incorrect. In fact, the opposite is quite true. Any time your body is in starvation mode you begin to conserve fat and lose muscle and it slows metabolism way down. Going to bed hungry and then sleeping 6 hours slows metabolism WAY down. So, the best thing is to eat something before bed with a high protein content. Not eating before bed is just a bad myth.

But more than anything creature is you just gotta WORK hard in the gym. On the weights and cardio. We are very good about over complicating losing weight when in reality it's not that hard. Eat good, NO sugary drinks or sweets, lift hard and be active. Thats it

[THE PROFIT]

have you lost any of that fat ass??? Cant read the whole fukin thread, just give us an update.

[andywend]

I never said anything about starvation but simply timing your meals so you don't eat late at night right before you go to sleep.

For example, if you go to bed at 2 a.m., you should have dinner no later than 8 p.m. You're far better off eating first thing in the morning as opposed to late at night shortly before going to sleep.
