What I ate while losing the FIRST 150 pounds

Losing weight while being morbidly obese is easy. i should know i was pushing 300 at one point. trying to hit your goal weight while eating like that with any regularity is going to be next to impossible.

You seem to have missed the multitude of threads from people like me who eat real food and still lose weight. Hoss has done an amazing job, lost an incredible amount of weight, and you can't simply say "good job"?

I'm cutting right now, weigh 185 pounds, and had ice cream, an ice cream sandwich and a beer yesterday. This man is an inspiration to anyone thinking they need surgical help and a special diet to lose weight, and he's a hell of an inspiration to me too.

Awesome response; thanks for posting that!

Couldn't even come close to matching your eloquence and grace, so x2, ditto.

This man has done what most will not, simply through sheer determination, stubbornness, and an unstoppable-ness that few people possess. I Kowtow to his greatness

I realize that Hoss' food pictures were somewhat overwhelming, but you missed the point... EAT AT A DEFICIT!

Reading is FUNdamental.

I think there are thousands of people that would disagree with and even take offense to that comment.

CONGRATS MAN!!!!! You are an inspiration

LOL I don't eat like this all the time. the whole point is that you don't have to cut out all the "evil" foods. Geeze people.

As for whether or not I can continue to eat this way..... see you in a year or so.

BRAVO!!! I'm betting we see less of you in a year or so. Some people just can't look far enough beyond their own noses to read plain and simple talk when they see it.

You look awesome! Looks like you've found your balance. Way to go!

You've been around here long enough to see the daily whining from morbidly obese people posting threads that they can't lose, right? You know, the ones who claim they're only eating 1200 calories a day and burning 2000 in exercise?

He isn't eating like that all the time. I see his food diary and it's not that different from mine most of the time. But he does treat himself within his calorie goals from time to time.

Good Lord, how hard is it to understand the word "moderation?"

eating at a deficit isnt the only part of being healthy. i can eat 2000 cals a day of fried food a day and lose weight but will that make me healthy? no. thats part of my point.

I'm glad for you... but you have just become my undoing.

Hoss isn't saying that these foods were all that he ate to lose 150 lbs. He is saying that he was able to balance his diet between healthy foods and all this deliciousness so that he could enjoy the foods that he loves and still lose.

I don't really understand the opposition to a message of moderation.
