SBR I Need Incentive!

William Walters · 06-14-11, 10:22 PM

I'm not a pro.........so I can't send many points, but am willing to toss a few your way from time to time.

You're still a very young man..........you've got lots of life ahead of you. Be strong, be the man you want to be, and take ownership of yourself. It's a learned behavior and in the beginning is truly a "one day at a time" type of thing. As I used to tell a younger cousin of mine on a daily basis........"make good decisions today". Each and every day you need to say to yourself......."make good decisions today". After a while.........you'll make good decisions without having to constantly think about it.

You can be the man you want to be, but you are the only one that can make it happen. The time is now.

CreaturE · 06-14-11, 10:26 PM

Thanks William. I really appreciate it man. It's not even the points to me to be completely honest. It's to hear someone that knows absolutely nothing about me, who I am, what I look like say there's always hope to become who you want to be.

EDIT: Well... you don't totally know what I look like. Damn avatar

blittydeuce · 06-14-11, 10:26 PM

I hope the points make you healthier and happier

excel · 06-14-11, 10:27 PM

I would send points but you'll probably just use them to buy pizza.

William Walters · 06-14-11, 10:29 PM

Come on boys............I'm always ready to jump in and bang on somebody, but the guy asked us all not to troll his thread. Lets take him at face value for now.

CreaturE · 06-14-11, 10:29 PM

Thanks excel. Glad to see we only made it through 3 posts to get a troll. Oh and by the way, your shirt that "won" the contest for the SBR Poker shirt, sucked donkey balls. So fukk off and get outta this thread.

King Mayan · 06-14-11, 10:35 PM

Damn I wish I was 300pounds...

chilidog · 06-14-11, 10:35 PM

Creature, are you coming to the bash in 2 months? 2 months is alot of time to lose a chunk of weight.

ttwarrior1 · 06-14-11, 10:37 PM

another 21 year old on sbr, who would of though it. The fact your 21 and on sbr says enough

chilidog · 06-14-11, 10:38 PM

You should turn your mission into an ebook and make some good money while you're getting life back in order. So you're 300 lbs right now. Big deal, you can easily lose that. So after you get down to 200 lbs, you write an ebook on how you lost 100 lbs in x months, and you sell it. See, 2 goals in one. Lose 100 lbs, you'll feel a ton better about yourself, and you'll make quite a bit of money, because everybody will want to know how you did it (your diet, any supplements you took, the exercise routine you did, etc).

Do it. Don't think about it. Do it. You say that you're bored. Here's the perfect way to kill your boredom.

ttwarrior1 · 06-14-11, 10:38 PM

hundreds of posts here on weightloss, its all over the forum and oh yeh, beer doesn't make u gain weight like people think.

You need to lower carbs and do cardio.

opie1988 · 06-14-11, 10:38 PM

I'll make a deal with you......show verifiable proof of how much weight you can drop over the next month, and I'll give you a point for each pound.

Deal?

Creature.....I know you don't believe this, but your life is just beginning. Making significant changes in your life, i.e. weight, will never be easier than it is right now. This is 100% guaranteed fact. This nonsense about your friends not being around and whatnot is all whoreshit. You're not some baby that needs someone to remind you that you don't really need that 3rd sandwich.

You know what it takes to lose weight. If you don't, it's all on you. Let's see if you have the mental toughness to do what it takes......

Good luck, pal.

Where and when exactly is the bash? I suppose I could see if that's possible.
I finally got a damn job so I don't know how early I should be taking a "vacation," however, it's definitely a possibility.

chilidog · 06-14-11, 10:39 PM

ttwarrior! do you prefer dingdongs or twinkies?

Beers are not simple carbs?

CreaturE · 06-14-11, 10:42 PM

I can absolutely make that happen Opie! I will take a quick...10-20 second video of me hopping on the scale once or twice a week and post it in this thread. Would that be cool?

Also, I can already tell that this is really something that could work! I am getting insanely excited, which is something that hasn't happened in ..... good lord ... 3-4 months?!

Become a Football star...I say put on more weight and into a sport...like...competitive eating

After separating both my shoulders, dislocating both my kneecaps, and tearing my ACL all through sports (wrestling and football) in high school I think losing weight would really make me feel like I'm 21 again. Instead of feeling like a 50 year old man already.

dzzznutz · 06-14-11, 10:46 PM

its all in your mental approach to food. fight the physical urge to eat with the mental willpower to detest it when you feel like a snack get a coffee and drink it slowly.Also cut down on your portions and slowly savor the food. you must be disciplined thats the key. good luck

owwwwwww I know that pain. I had a mountain bike accident last year that broke and dislocated my shoulder, and shattered my kneecap. That fukker hurttttttt bad, holy fukk. I think the physical therapy was way worse than the accident itself though.

excel · 06-14-11, 10:48 PM

I would say using SBR in your weight loss plan is setting yourself up for failure, If I actually cared.

CreaturE · 06-14-11, 10:50 PM

Again, before anyone starts trolling... I'm going to post a picture of me. Just so you guys know that I'm not just trying to point whore you.

Jordan23 · 06-14-11, 10:52 PM

Good luck to you. I am 5'9 and just a few months ago I was walking around at about 265 pounds. That was too heavy for me. I have always been an athlete and kind of just let myself go. Because I have a thick neck and very broad shoulders I couldn't tell I was putting on so much weight. I always held my weight pretty well and while I maybe thought I was bigger than I used to be I was shocked that I was up to 265.

I'm down to 220 now and look great and feel great. Got my muscles back and the ladies lovin! You can do it man. Don't give up and don't get discouraged. I dropped 50 pounds in just 3 months. Not only did I lose 50 pounds but I also toned my body in the process. Do it the right way. Eat plenty of food but eat healthier foods and the most important thing is lots and lots of exercise! Do exercises that you enjoy. That is also very important. If you don't like doing situps than do another ab exercise. If you don't like running then play basketball. You can do it! Everybody is different so it is very important that you find something that works for you and stick to it.

The reason as to why I thought of making this thread was because I actually went to the gym I signed up for 1 month and 1 week ago for the first time today. So bite your tongue buddy. I jogged 1.25 miles on the elliptical and lifted weights for about 35-45 minutes. That may not sound like a lot to any of you, however, I used to be a contender for state wrestling at the 215 weight class before I tore my ACL. So I know what it's like to be in good shape. After I tore my ACL I put on about 90 pounds and lost about 35-45% of my muscle...so yeah.

CreaturE · 06-14-11, 10:55 PM

Thanks for the input Jordan23. It's a huge thing to get back some game with the ladies for me. Sadly enough...I'm not ashamed to admit to this but it's been 7 YEARS.......YES 7 years since I've last kissed a girl. Sad story but that's what I'm working with. Needa get back in the game.

Oh wow..........you are so young. I'm rooting for you Creature.

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Note: Rod1010.......very cool move with the points.

CreaturE · 06-14-11, 11:01 PM

Alright guys, to everyone that is helping me I thank you tremendously.

I can already tell that this really is going to help motivate me. I will be getting a short video posted in the morning to verify weight to anyone that is considering continuing this. I have to get to bed now though to make sure I get up for work and still have some energy to get my butt into the gym again tomorrow.

CreaturE · 06-14-11, 11:04 PM

I think SBR is rooting for me as well guys! Just got 3 super easy trivia questions! Nailed my 125 points for the night!!!
THANK YOU SBR!

InTheDrink · 06-14-11, 11:04 PM

You're not really in condition to do any cardio yet. The best thing you can do is walk three or more miles as many days a week as you can. It wil probably take you about an hour which is nothing with all the new smart phones and the music apps on them if you have one or even an iPod. I'd say before you been think about running you'd need to walk for at least a month. All running will do at this point is put you in positn to hurt yourself and when you can't run very far it will discourage you. Nothing wrong with walking.

Next thing...shave the beard. Your avatar freaks me out!

CreaturE · 06-14-11, 11:10 PM

@ InTheDrink I look like a freakin' baby without it man. I've had it for 4 years now. I think it's here to stay bud.

dochall2u · 06-14-11, 11:12 PM

good luck to you.Now is the time to lose weight if its your choice.The older you get the harder it is to lose weight.

Clean shaven and honeys huggin your neck...whats the problem homey?

If you're worried about it I vote to go with the porn stache.

Gonad · 06-14-11, 11:13 PM

CreaturE, if you can document that you are shedding pounds, I'll throw plenty of points your way...
