Something strange going on in our society.
Going to school in the 1960's and finally being done with it in 1972 I can tell you there just was NOT many fat kids. Most that were considered fat in that time would hardly be called "chunky" today. The truly obese generally had some weird health problems. And being fat then was pretty much a person that was not suffered well at all. Being a fat is not part of the normal human experience, Except for today when I see 15 year olds carrying 30 pounds too many or 30 year olds carrying 90 pounds too many or far more.... Come on people. |

I slowed down my eating. I can probably lose 20 lbs but considering my age, I'm better than most folks my age (and some of the younger guys too).

She said that we were vain, blah blah and if I ever got fat she would still love me. I told her bullshit. If I had been a fat slob instead of a fit athlete when we met she wouldn't have looked twice at me. In addition to that I'm never losing my six pack, so she is the only one that has to worry about getting fat |

When I hit 30 I started to get fat. But hey what do you expect when your metabolism slows down with age and you don't work out anymore and you eat too much junk food. So I made an effort to eat healthier and went back to the gym. Now I'm looking good again. You shouldn't just give up on yourself so easily. Try harder!!!

I wound up on steroids 4 times this summer - I'm now up 15 lbs. I'm dieting and exercising more because I refuse to upgrade a pants size. I refuse. I don't care if I have to run myself into the ground. The older I get, the harder it gets to drop new weight.

Accepted that food is a constant source of joy in my life.
fwiw I did abuse my body when I was younger. Competitive Athletics for years, followed by hard ranch work and serious kayaking. Competitive athletics effected my knees, kayaking and ranching destroyed my feet (dropped heavy shit on toes - bone fragments are a bitch), and Kayaking wrecked my shoulders. I still get out and about quite well - but never know how bad the payback will be a couple days latter. I usually am limping for several days after each weekend. |

It's not a struggle I have ever faced.
My metabolism has always been high, and I never took a shine to drinking pop all day, or at all. My wife has had to do the willpower thing to control her weight. She has gained 40 pounds over the years, and could stand to lose a few pounds. The flip side is...when I am elderly and get sick, I'll lose twenty pounds and die. She'll lose twenty pounds and live another ten or twenty years a bit thinner than she was before. |

I won't accept getting fat. Those that are strong willed can avoid it. It isn't easy and every decade it gets harder fighting it. In mid 40's now, but I have to work out harder and mind what I eat more than I did in my 30's to maintain a hard physique that the wife likes to rub her hands all over.

Fattie threads are always pretty funny. They are, and I'm a fatty. Here's my pathetic excuse: I was a cross country runner in high school. 6' 1", 155 lbs. Skinny son of a bitch, retarded high metabolsim. Ate a ton because I burned it all off. Went to college, worked out and went up to 190 due to less running and more lifting. Was still in shape. Started drinking too much beer, did less running and working out. Graduated college at 210. A couple of years later, started a new sales job. Exceptionally long hours, on the road a lot. Metabalism finally slowing down+stressful job+fast food on the road=balloon effect. It got bad quickly and I don't even want to say what new heights the scale hit. 
Quit that job, now doing work that makes me happy, not eating fast food and working out twice a day has started to turn things around, but I did a lot of damage to myself. I've lost weight but have a long way to go. Currently at 235. Running and doing a light workout (pushups/situps/body builders/some light dumbbell stuff) twice a day right now. I don't even have a weight loss goal, I'm just trying to get back into running shape. It's been 10 years since I've run a competitive 5K. Working hard to get into shape to do one by the end of this year. I'd eventually like to hit 190 or less again, but I'm not focused on weight right now, just getting back into shape. The weight loss will come with it. Anyway, that is my excuse. Stress+bad food+not working out will kill you. Try to avoid those. |

I lead a fairly sedentary lifestyle (goes with sitting in a cube working on a computer all day) but as of next week I'm going to put forth some serious effort and get back in shape.
Over lunch time I'm going to drive to a local park and start interval training. I'm about 30lbs over my college weight and I need to get back to where I was. I still practice martials arts but I am NOT in the same shape I once was. It's unfortunate as in college I ran marathons/triathlons and played martial arts 3 days a week. I was a tough bugger and I miss it. |
