I weigh 330. My ideal weight is 250. Since I started working out and watching what I eat, I have lost between 70-80 pounds so far.
I've been overweight my whole life. Can't really blame anyone but myself, although, mom and dad never really instilled in us kids the importance of exercise and eating healthy. Hell, we ate McDonald's 2 or 3 times a week growing up. I can't blame them though, I am smart enough to read and understand literature about what being overweight does to you. But, I can say that once a cycle is started, it's tough to re-align your train of thinking on a subject to break that cycle. If you do something the way you always have, you're more apt to always do it that way. Skinny people who have never had to battle the bulge personally never seem to get this rational...it's always a case of we're "just to fucking fat and lazy to care bla bla bla..."
Now, I do south beach, ride my bike, play basket ball with my son, go for walks with my wife...it all seems to be working well but it has taken some severe mind re-training to get to where I am now.
I love the fact that skinny fucktards who have always been skinny and can eat like there is no tomorrow and never ever gain a pound earn the right to call any overweight person a "lardass". That always makes me smile inside. Judge not, lest ye be judged yourself...or something like that.
