How do you handle your fat friends?

[Son Goku]

real talk breh a lot of these people need to walk 5 miles a day or trying to run 2 miles (no matter how slow) just as a base before they even consider a gym.

If they can’t get outside to do a few bullshyt laps on the track then they aren’t committing to that gym life. They gotta burn as much as they can outside; like literally spend a calendar year (5 days a week) walking/running along with stop being slobs and eating everything.

Being in a gym will wreck them and it’s also too damn easy to just sit at the gym for 20 mins doing nothing.

I'm usually at the gym for close to 3 hours a pop. I can normally count on one hand the number of people putting in work in those 3 hours, and I'm including myself in that.

Can’t help anyone who doesn’t want to help themselves

This . You can’t care more than the person you’re helping . It usually won’t work

Gains cannot be created nor destroyed, only transferred from one person to another.

Tell him you love him and seeing him chasing death scares you. Emotional honesty can be a kicker.

I'm cutting my fat friends off in 2021. And there's a difference between being fat and obese and being heavy

If you sloppy fat and obese, you and I are going in different directions. I can't have you around me snacking 24/7 while I'm trying to do better in life and every time I look up, you got desserts and chips on deck.

Nah we can't hang out no more

Only had 1 homeboy who was fat/husky...ever.

I'm not about that slug life so I don't cool it with people that are.

Yeah man and it might seem like a really crazy thing to say but I'm serious.

I know I have an issue. I love to eat and I'm addicted to sugar. Over the past 3 weeks I have finally gotten my diet together. Minimal sugar, vegetables, you know, eating right.

But I still have temptations. I had a craving for ice cream the other day and I had to resist it

What do I look like hanging out with a fat boy who got ice cream, cookies and everything else on deck? That man is trying to take me backwards whether he realizes it or not.

I'm like an alcoholic when it comes to sweets. I still crave that stuff so I gotta stay away from it for now.

Keep going. The more gains you get, the more progress you see, the better you'll feel and the harder you'll grind.

If I could go back 10 years and see myself I'd legit whoop my own ass, like "Aye me, why you bullshytting and not getting gains?"


One of the hardest lessons to learn (underlined): you can't save em all.


It doesn't seem crazy to me. Maybe it is to others, like when us oblivious brehs don't catch passes from these broads y'all would take to the end zone.


But frfr, I find myself at places having to call people out. Sucks having to be that guy, but too many people have no accountability these days.
■ Nikkas eating cake in the fukking gym but ain't lift not one clean rep.
■ Motherfukkers on remedial physical training tryna eat everything in sight during lunch, or tryna go out and eat bullshyt the skinny folks get away with.
■ Fat pipo bringing in junk food everyday but wondering why dudes ain't tryna cuff their obese asses.


So no, I definitely get it. People that aren't on the same fitness wave as you will only hold you back or stand in your way. Iron sharpens iron, but if a fat fukk doesn't want to make the changes, they need to get left in the box with the other tools.

At some point it becomes crucial for your friends to have similar lifestyles as well as interests. If they aren't willing to change, just have to fall back from them and keep with what you're doing.

Most of my day one homies are big as fukk. 1 already had a health impact from it, but he's working it on it now. The other sees it coming and is actively trying to do somthing. My other homie might be 5'10 400 lbs posting pictures of food and a big ass glass of powdered juice. shyt legit disgusts me when I see him posting that shyt. Once in a blue, he'll say he wants to work out or do something. It never manifests. I encourage him when he mentions it, but I don't go any further because you can't really press that on people. They have to want to do it themselves. Surprisingly he still gets sex from randoms so he really hasn't had any real motivation to change up. I do know he's ultimately depressed. I know switching to at least drinking more water would have a tremendous effect on him. Sad thing is, when it catches up with him, I just hope it's not too late to do anything about it.

My nephew is big too. Drives a truck for a living. Can't tell him nothing either.

My 400 lb homie just spent a couple days in the hospital for what he initially thought was Covid because had shortness of breath.

Dude has an issue with his heart. 36 and he might have fukking heart disease man...

Smfh...

That's what I did when I was 330-340 two years ago, I made myself walk like 5-7 miles a day and then after a couple of months I added more cardio and body weight exercises on top of that.

Changing the diet is the hardest part cause all it takes is a lil bit of negativity and you're ready to hit the corner store up for shyt.

My friend was having trouble losing weight and wanted to lose weight but was trying to hit the gym hard and failing, so I told him to switch it up and focus on cardio first to build his tank before he tries the gym and that helped him.

I got a close friend who is fat as fukk and I really want to say something but dude is WFH while caring for his sons. A 2 year old and a 4 year old while his wife is back in the office. They dont feel safe with day care with the pandemic. I want to say something but I know he's just stress eating. I dont want to stress him out even more by calling out his health and food choices.

He use to be in shape but, I ain't about to call him out with what is current situation is. That's tuff.

 

[Killigraphy]

Its no big deal. I wasn't ever the type to harp on someone. I make fun and shame everyone, skinny, fat, tall or short. Its always a good time. In private we'll have those talks, and I'll always offer help. If I see it getting outta hand, I step in.

 

[Grand Cru Boo]

Losing weight is one of the hardest things to do. Some people just don’t have it in them to make it. While I don’t believe this, I just try to focus on what I can do. It’s easier than way

Big people don’t make me mad, but I always wonder how they are able to live with themselves sometimes.
