Other big brehs, What was your wake up call to start losing the weight? (Mine came today)

[Wink Beaufield]

Whats good people that's the topic of the moment out here. Today I watched a coworker drop from a heart attack. Dude is in the hospital luckily he didn't clock out but that dude weighs damn near 450lbs.

I'm a big dude too at 6'1" 340 and seeing that shyt had me straight up shook man. After work I just straight up walked my ass from work to my house off that shyt (Pentagon City to SE DC). When I got in I tossed all my liquor and beer to the damn bushes. Normally I bike in or work out in the house but I fell off hard on exercising due to taking care of dying family. That walk took 3 hours but I damn sure was reflecting on life while taking it.

Today just had me.

Good thread. The fear of obesity related health problems and having to take pills and shots for the rest of my life because of a lack of self control when it comes to food. Back in the day people didn't know how dangerous food was, today we know what comes with being overweight so we have no excuse.

The thought of that made me lose a lot of weight and I'm still losing it.

Damn breh you coulda gave me the liquor and beer instead, I'm in DC too


But real talk, congrats on the wake up call b. All that weight will catch up to you eventually.

Mine was when i met a friend i hadn't seen in a while and she instantly had this like shocked suprised look on her face. I knew i had put on a bit of weight but this is what made me realize that I needed to fix up and get back in shape. What makes it worse (don't mean to brag) is that i used to do mma and loads of sports at school which had me built like a beast so any weight I put on looks 10x worse than if an already fat nikka put on the same amount.

Back on the gym wave now though, beast mode soon come again

I never got that big, but when I hit 225 and had a 38" waist I said "OK thats enough"

Looking back on pics from that time

Funny thing is I was doing all that eating to get stronger.... but now I'm like 40lb lighter and way stronger than I used to be. There's no reason to carry extra weight brehs. Stay healthy

6'1 and 300 plus pounds Damn!

I literally just woke up one day and said "Nikka, you gotta do better!"

Started with straight cardio, while tweaking my diet. Then I transitioned to cardio + weights. My one year "workout anniversary" is next week. I've lost 40 plus pounds and have muscles and good definition now.

A fit life is the best life!

Good luck breh.
