the old me
This is me, but not for long.
I’m Steve, I’m 25 years old, I am 5′10″, and I weigh 265 pounds.
I am a guy who orders a large meal at McDonalds, and a few things off of the dollar menu to boot.
I am a guy who can eat an entire pizza in one sitting, and still want more later…
…same with a bucket of fried chicken.
I am a guy who can eat and entire greasy appetizer at a restaurant, along with the full meal, and a dessert.
I am a guy who would rather watch TV or play on the computer then go the gym.
I am a guy who gives up on physical activity too easily, because sitting is SOOO much easier.
I am a guy who is not very happy with himself.
I am a guy who is going to make a change.

I love your honesty! I wish you nothing but success on your endeavor. Keep with it and never give up hope and after a while I am sure the steve you once knew will have grown to become an even more amazing person (and thinner too!)!
Thank you so much, Dawn
I can relate to so many things off this list! How about….I am the guy that goes to the movies for the popcorn…with extra butter?
(Thats me!)
Wow…sounds a lot like me above in terms of “typical” eating habits/capabilities. I’m on a similar path, though unlike you, Tyler @ 344, etc, I have a power lifting and hard training background. I just got really lazy and undisciplined, and I like to eat too much. This is the most motivated I’ve been in years though. Keep it up my man!!
Hey Steve, welcome to the club. I’m trying to change myself, ’cause carrying all this weight aint fun at all……..
Thank you so much, Dawn
That was me about a year ago.. and more at 336 lbs. I know how it is.. pizza is my most favorite food and I can easily eat a large (I’m not sure if I can now).
But that’s the old you yes? Once you start losing weight and feeling great, you don’t want to go back. Good luck to you!
Cheers,
Hey…. I understand all of this….especially the fried chicken. THAT is my arch nemesis. Cant even eat a little, just one time, or it will restart the whole cycle…
I’m very much the same way, I’ve tried moderation, and well…yeah..ugh. Better left alone.
You sound just like I used to be. I’d spend an entire weekend on my couch watching TV and movie marathons. And of course eating. Keep up the good work! You can do it! Lisa
Hey Steve! I got to your blog because I saw that you follow tylers blog 344pounds a lot. I really enjoyed reading your blog. I also started one about a month ago and I also have a facebook page. Just like you, I hated my body and wanted to make a change. I have lost 22 Lbs so far and I love it! Keep working hard and if you have time check out my blog
Thanks
Molly
