My Story and The Plan

Hi, my name is J Brian (group responds HI J BRIAN). I am FAT. I have been for most of my adult life.

I will be A Fat Boy No More.

Three years ago I started a journey to become A Fat Boy No More. And since September 2007 I have been publishing my success and failures. This Blog follows me from the day I first started my weight loss journey and it focuses on the everyday struggles that people with weight problems have.

Prepare yourself for a very real and very challenging event in my life. I commit to being as honest and as clear as I can be in the webpage to chronicle my ongoing battle with my weight. The pictures can be explicit.

After 12 years of being bigger than I should be... ok lets just be honest. I was not big I was fat. I have been over weight and muscular for most of my adult life. But the muscular part has been over shadowed by a large layer of fat on my body. I've eaten too much and I lived a sedentary life. In December 2006 I weighed 320 pounds. The morning I weighed myself and saw that I was over 300 pounds I essentially went into a deep depression that day and I am sure that I ate another 5 pounds worth of food. But that night I decided that enough was enough. My weight problem had become more than just an appearance problem it became a health problem, a self esteem problem and it was starting to affect my business and income. I had to do something. And I had to be held accountable. Technology is a good thing. I decided I had to put it out there. I started texting everyone in cell phone saying "Officially a fat ass now I weigh 300". I had been lying forever and telling people that I was 250. And no one questioned it.

The first step I took was to hit the gym and cut my calories. I looked on webmd and found out how many calories there where in a pound (3500) and decided to create this formula to determine how many calories and how much extra exercise I had to do to lose 60 pounds by May 27th. My annual trip to Key West Florida. By February I had lost 25 pounds. On a plan that was essentially the same thing that Weight Watchers teaches you. Then life hit me. After being so good I just got tired of it. I had no real support structure. And so I just relapsed because I was on a diet. Not a life change. But between March and August I essentially maintained my weight loss. In April I got a part time job working in a restaurant as a bartender. Everyone thinks I was crazy to do that but the truth is I just needed something to make me active. I needed to get off my lazy fat ass and be active. I gave up sweet tea and I stopped eating beef for the most part. I chose bison. Which taste so similar and has a familiar texture but had half the calories. Nothing else really changed.

But I did not lose the weight I wanted. When I was in Key West I looked like a beached whale and I felt horrible. I have a picture from that trip that show the folds of fat on my back. I was so depressed after that trip. So I essentially just maintained until late July when my best friend Michelle told me that a guy we both worked with a few years back had lost a lot of weight thru some medical weight loss plan.

I kinda brushed it off. I was looking into Lap Band or some other surgery. Then another friend of mine saw Brad as well and said Brad has lost a lot of weight. So I called Brad and he told me about the plan thru Emory Hospital. I went to an info session on the plan and decided to enroll.

Before you consider any type of surgery please look into medically managed weight loss. IT WORKS. Your doctor or the Bariatrics department of your local university hospital can direct you. Too many of my friends had surgery and lost a lot of weight and regained it. Even with a smaller stomach you can eat ice cream all the time and gain it back. I have a friend that just did that.

So this is what I did initially. Follow my blog posts from the beginning and see the transformation.

Remember

Don't give up today because you fucked up yesterday.

01 December 2011

Nothing here to see

But that is about to change... 2011 has been a year that I returned to the real world. My Weight and Health have been a major focus of my life for the last 4 years. I made a decision 4 years ago to get "brian" back to a healthy place. In doing that I gave up a lot in the way of career. I essentially put it on hold. January of 2011 I re entered the real world and I am reminded everyday that the challenges of a fat boy are still there. My weight has fluxuated all year long. High and low... not how we should live our lives. Can we have a successful career and maintain our health? I have put my career back in place. I am doing well in my return to Real Estate... but my health is at risk of career success... exactly what happend to me before. 2012 will be dedicated to a few things. 1. Growing my Real Estate Business and 2. Improving my health. Not maintaining... as 2011 was committed to. Today I weigh in at 242. I have been as low as 227 and as high as 320 in the last 5 years of my life. Where should I be? 200 Pounds. And that is my goal. But I can't do it without maintaining a successful career. My goal is to lose 42 pounds in 12 weeks. By March 1, 2012. I will weigh 200... and again I will do this thru natural food and exercise and activity. Join me. And watch me make my Taylor happy. He will have to take in all my pants again.

Hey there. It's good to catch up on your blog, handsome. We've chatted before on Bear411 and it's cool to see how things are going.

You might or might not remember, but I had gone from 319 to 168-174 in 2008, but I have gained a lot of it back with stress, metabolism-altering medications, bad habits, and other things. I got up to 285 in December.

But, in the past few weeks, I've started exercising fervently and watching the diet. I'm now back into the 270s and continuing to lose. I hope I can keep it up!

Happy new year!
