When I was young I weighed 250 lbs at 5'10. Then, in 1993 at a White Sox vs Blue Jays playoff game, I was heckling Rickey Henderson before the game and he turned around, found me in the crowd of people and called me fat. That night I decided to lose the weight. Went on a diet and lost 75 lbs in 4 months. Kept it off for years with vigorous exercise, but now that my back has made me a cripple I barely exercise and the weight has crept back on. I'm about 220 now and fluctuate 40 pounds back and forth constantly.
i still credit Rickey with saving my life.

I’m about 40lbs overweight. Call it 30lbs away from being ‘not fat.’
I’ve lost 30 lbs in short order before, so I know I can lose it but it always comes down to finding the hours in the day. When I lost the weight before, I didn’t have kids and I could go shoot around at a gym for 3 hours. Didn’t even feel like a workout really.

At the risk of being told I’m going to grow a third hand out of my neck or something, I lost all mine with zero exercise and without ever feeling hungry. I am taking a weight loss shot called Zepbound. Similar to weygovy or Ozempic. It is basically terzepitide or something like that. I did a lot of research and talked to several people I know who are taking it. I have had zero side effects. Most of the people I have talked to have also had none. For some people it gives them heartburn or upset stomach but it doesn’t bother me at all. Is it the lazy way out? Maybe, but every person I know who is taking it has lost 2-3 lbs per week every single week. It’s a shot you take like an epipen. What it basically does is makes you always feel full and you just do not want to eat much. So far I still only have two ears and two eyes and I have no regrets taking it. Will something show up later on? Maybe, I don’t know, but come Monday, I’m takin my weekly shot
If its like some of those meds; Please exercise a little and lift weights if possible(or work a job that is physically active). If you don't it can make you lose muscle and bone density. Allegedly.
Yeah I don't disagree with that at all. I do stay pretty active, just not in the form or "working out". I also make sure I eat plenty of protein
I expected better from you. From the lurker I would understand, but not from you..... 🤣
Sorry....I can't pass up low hanging fruit. Just like Lurker can't pass up low hanging nuts!
Now I need to know exactly what was said during this heckling exchange... You said something about his jheri curl, didn't you?
Drop the diet/exercise regimen! I am 6'0", went from 235 to 200 last year but gained it all back +5 once life got in the way. Now looking to shed the lbs again.
Still on that journey of deepthroating baby carrots for dinner every night? Good on ya!
I had no idea how long my toenails had gotten until I could see them again....
Grew up built and in shape, I'm 5'11 and probably peaked at 270 at some point 10+years ago, size 40 pants, xl some xxl. Currently 210 size 34-36 Large-med could maybe do another 20ish but I carry this pretty well.
this is over 30 years ago so I don't remember. Probably just told him he sucked.
Wasn't as clever as when I was 7 and we went to White Sox spring training and I yelled out to Reggie Jackson that his candy bar sucked. Crowd loved that one.
i wasn't super fat as a 7 year old so Reggie missed his opportunity to save my life.
If it's any consolation, it was probably the cocaine talking...
...which could also help you lose weight.
Are you fat if your gf goes down on you and her nose hits your gut? Or is it something else?
I try and cope with that by telling myself it's not because I'm fat, it's because my wife is Jewish.
