I'm down to 6'3" 195lbs myself, after bloating up to a high of 300lbs two years ago. A lifetime of bad eating habits catches up with you fast when all of a sudden you're in your 20s and have a totally sedentary lifestyle.
Woke up one day with a "HOLY SHIT WHAT IS GOING ON," then did the necessary research and made the appropriate lifestyle changes.
EviLore said:
It's funny how you just realize it all of a sudden...I remember the exact day when I realized I had gained a fair amount of weight. You're a better man than me for actually making the changes. I stopped my weight gain, but have not committed enough to actually reduce my weight.
I guess I better get on that.

He can fill in complete details but from everything I seen he was very very publicly disagreeing with the new neoGAF look and was actually like derailing Evilore's topic about it and generally being inharmonious with other mods. Lots of that arguing/disagreeing in public stuff.
I know it was only the catalyst, the final straw, because there was discussions about it prior. But I forgot the previous incidents.

I know what you're saying, EviLore. I'm not huge by any means, but I'm definitely jiggly in some places, which is something I've never felt before a year ago. Time to start cutting back on excesses.

Once you get past the initial "oh god this is a shock to my system", you'd be surprised at how quickly it goes by. You just need to start. It's like writing an annoying essay or something, I guess. Just start it.TheExodu5 said:

I was like that, 6'4 and currently 210 pounds, went down from 280. When I entered university, that's when I changed and lost the weight ( lots and lots of peer pressure ).

A few months back EviLore mentioned working with ckohler on an official GAF smartphone app. Is that still happening? Thought I'd ask here since Evil is present.
Why would you do that?
Member
Thanks, Amir0x. I could imagine that support's the biggest factor.
Me too. I drink a lot of liquid (somewhere around 1/2 gallon every day) but it sometimes includes a lot of kool-aid.TheExodu5 said:

I know that most of my GAF viewing is done through the Second apps unofficial app. I realise this may cut into ad money, so it would be nice to one day get an app that provides this functionality on touch devices but also helps pay the bills.criesofthepast said:

I was always under the impression that yudaan became lyre (name change first, then a mod) maybe due to his tag or something, but I could be wrong. Also, the connection between him and Dragona, never knew the first thing about that.
Amir0x, much respect on the weight loss.
Trojita said:
2005 originally, but I was not in the right physical condition to train back then. I had probably the worst cardio of all time, was weak as hell, and I was overweight in a skinny fat sort of way (230lbs or so). My body just fell apart repeatedly, training with a bunch of elite athlete badasses, as much as I had the determination to continue. After I quit, though, that's when I started going down the path to obesity, because I wasn't active afterward.
Wasn't about to go back to BJJ in even worse shape than when I left, so I waited until one year into my fitness progress, one year ago, to return. Was 245lbs or so and it's still been rough on my body but I do a lot of cardio, conditioning, strength training, etc. to keep me in one piece as much as possible, and things are getting better as less people are able to beat me up on the mats ;b
195 now, as mentioned. Looking to be totally fit by the end of the year, so somewhere in the 170-180 range. Then I'll start going for competitions.

This is fairly normal if you're not eating in between. That being said, it might be worth getting your kidneys checked out. I'm not an expert, but I think it COULD be indicative of kidney problems in certain cases.Trojita said:
I mean, I don't want to freak you out, the same thing happens to me and I'm totally fine. Next time you visit a GP for a checkup or whatever, you might want to mention it, is all.

I'm 5'7" and 155 lbs. I maintained at 135 lbs all through high school, but I participated in sports and had an unbelievable metabolism, so any bad habits were sweated out. Now I work and come home. Soft drinks are killing me, soda and Gatorade. I just don't feel too nice about my body.
I've been going for long walks at night, though, coming back dripping in sweat. My legs feel great, but my upper body needs some love too.

I gained around 20-25 pounds in the last couple years but it's almost all gone now, similar situation, I'm vegan but I was really getting lazy with the exercise.
GAF needs its own line of motivational videos.
You did great, Amir0x. Things like that can be very tough.
I really do miss Huelen though. It was great having a guy like that around here, and I would not hesitate at all to defend him from the haters here. We were very much alike in our devotion to certain subjects, and made a thread feel a lot more casual and easygoing.
I think he hated me though.

Huelen was cool, but he really went on a bender at the end. The Sonic 4 thread was hilarious. Mocking the color comparisons I did a photoshop comparison of Sonic's fur in the new and old games, and he actually cited me (I think)Willy105 said:

I'm sort similar to this. 5'11 and I had a similar difficult time gaining weight when I was younger, till uni when I gained more than the typical Freshman 15 by the end. After school was done I exercised heavily and balanced my weight out to around 170. Right now I'm eating healthy enough but exercise I've been neglecting, though my weight has stayed about the same.
I had a similar "aw fuck" moment as EviLore. I tend not to go about changing things till the last minute.

He is a big reason why I joined this site. I didn't see that kind of in-depth analysis on other sites, and it really intrigued me. NeoGAF is great with it's posters digging up a lot of info (the other day a NeoGAF poster was the source of the most recent shot of Project Hammer), and Huelen felt like a poster boy for the potential I imagined to see here.

I'm like 5'11 and 145lbs and have never been above that. I am pretty sedentary and drink soda/energy drinks, but drink water a lot more than I used to. I ate a lot, but I think my metababolism is beginning to fail me, at 22 and a slight beer gut

I went from 185 to a current 230.

I played Alice: MR but I didn't enjoyed it as much, I guess new found love in Witcher 2 has taken priority over all others and underwhelmed their experience. I'll prob give it another shot when I pass by the rental store again (after I beat the Witcher 2 for 2nd time).

i wonder how big i can make my beer belly get
Damn, it's weird to say this, but I would like to use some of your experiences as motivation to gain weight. I'm in the opposite side, I'm way too skinny for my own good but I can't find the time/motivation to eat 5 or 6 times a day and go to the gym.
I would like to see some "I was a bonesack but then I got ripped" stories
