Preparing for ….. failure? by fatboymuscleman http://www.builtbig.com/journal/built-big/the-power-of-words-preparing-for-failure.html#comment-31 fatboymuscleman Wed, 17 Sep 2008 16:05:44 +0000 http://www.builtbig.com/journal/built-big/the-power-of-words-preparing-for-failure.html#comment-31 You are right on. She set you up for failure, but only because you took her words to heart. First off, modern medicine is piss poor at helping people to lose weight. Going to a dietician was your first mistake. They will sell you the low fat hogwash. The count your calories BS, the move more, eat less crap. If they had the answer, 2/3rds of America would not be lard asses, right? What you were doing was working, go back to it. And yes, you will fuck up once in a while, dust your fat ass off and get back to it. That is your take away. Also, fast food is Satan, make no mistake about this. It is the purest evil known to man. Your dietician was dead wrong here, and chinese buffet is the worst of the worst. Put down the General Tso's chicken and fried rice. Step away from the buffet line. Go get yourself a nice, lean cut of meat and some broccoli. Maybe toss in an apple or some salad. Isn't that better? :) I've been there. I'm 34 and started at 456. I now weigh 390. All kinds of people have been offering me "advice". I politely tell them to kiss my ass (that is paraphrasing of course). If you want to know my story, check out my new blog at fatboymuscleman.com. You are right on.

The problem is, living in Pennsylvania, it tends to get cold. It would probably be better for me going out and walking with a 40 pound coat on my back.. but I hate going out in the cold. It has been in the 30's and 20's and even lower for the better part of a week. It is probably going to be pretty cold for awhile.. With 4+ months of less than optimal weather each year. I would like to find something that I can use to help me work out when I can't go out for a walk.

The only thing I could find to support my mass was the street. I used it by walking until I'd lost enough to be able to use the machines. It took a while and wasn't easy. Best wishes.
