Not a big guy... nor tall... just trying to reverse a weight gain trend (2-4lbs packed on each and every year... and not of muscle.).

My goodness though, some of the guys here have amazing transformations!

6-4, starting weight 376 lbs. right now 288 lbs. Had a gastric bypass on 4/9/12 after way too many years of yo-yoing. couldnt get the demon under control that made me over eat. now i got a great tool to work with, and plan on doing the best i can with it. I have started the wii fit in six program. First real exercise I've done in quite a while. Looking at some of y'alls pic I'm way impressed and super encouraged. Feel free to friend me, and occassionally kick me in th butt when I need it!

I have noticed that there are many woman on this site not that it's a problem, because generally it's harder for a woman to loose compared to a man, BUT for motivation sake WHERE are the men and their success stories as I am a 6'3 BIG MAN looking to stay motivated and get in shape.

yup there are a boatload of women on here lol mostly I think because
1) women dont mind asking for help
2) we are more concerned with weight (men can get away with carrying a lil more)
3) we like the social aspect
4) and if most guys are anything like my fiancee .....dieting/tracking foods and exercise is just too much hassle lol

PS women can give you motivation too -dont be sexist :) good luck on your adventure- keep in mind you can do whatever you put your mind to- have faith in yourself!!

Hey guys!!

I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE if my husband would be interested in joining MFP. What motivated you to do so? I have talked to him about all the amazing benefits that I have discovered and the wonderful support from MFPs. He has struggled with his weight for as long as I have known him (1990) and he hops on Atkins for the quick losses but then always finds himself back in the same spot. If you have any suggestions to what might help him find the interest please let me know.

Thanks

It's partially accountability. If you can stick to tracking and you have to look at what you are doing to yourself it becomes REAL. There are no tricks you can play with your mind to justify it. It's all right there in front of you in black and white. Having some good friends on here to comment/encourage you is also helpful, makes you feel accountable to them also. Plus, there are a lot of people here who've been around the block and can give real advice.

I'm 6'3 and started at 360lbs about a month and a half ago. After tomorrow's weigh in I should be down 40lbs total.

I had started at the same weight about 5 years ago and lost 110lbs and got down to 250lbs but after suffering set-backs over the last 4 years, I slowly gained all of the weight back.

I've been doing a lot of running lately and eating much healthier.

I've ran 5 5k's on the treadmill in the last 2 weeks.

I find it important to set small and large goals and to push yourself and hold yourself accountable.
