  1. Well, i was in the locker room, naked....sooooo...It was kinda creepy..
  2. It depends on how creepy..lol I will say that the older the gal is, the more inappropriate and sexually charged the comments will be...lol. Like women over 45 that have made comments have made some really raunchy ones...the young girls are just super forward and flirty these days. I get some eyes and smiles from a few younger gals in the gym but they seem to be more shy, the older ladies at the gym will literally give me elevator eyes and look me up and down with zero discretion.. The few dudes that hit on me were WAAAAAAY more creepy than any woman.. The 2 in thegym locker room really creeped me out..
  3. 19 years old for me....Young lady that works my gym's front desk, she was making me a shake and threw not 1 but 3 separate compliments. We were chatting about weight loss and I showed her a before and after picture of the weight loss, 1)"wow you look better than guys my age, wow", After some more small talk, randomly says #2) "you do look really good, wow." and after I brought up my graying stubble and my age, #3) "I like it, it works on you, you look very distinguished"..... She was also trolling for my instagram handle, but that wasnt happening. Then 23 years old last week... I sitting having a drink at the bar while on break from my poker session, 2 girls that were sitting next to me and I could tell they were talking about me in spanish and looking in my direction, then one finally asks me "excuse me, are you a lawyer?"...LOL.(second time I got that in a week by the way).. i make some polite small talk, turns out shes 23, I tell her im just taking a break from playing poker, ect ect..She says "what does your girlfriend think about you playing poker"?......Yup, she's hitting on me...lol My reply, "my girlfriends(yes plural) dont mind at all, but sometimes my wife gets a bit fickle about it.".....You should have seen her face, hahah..So I explain to her it was a joke, some more small talk then I excuse myself to finish my poker session. The new found attention feels pretty good, sometimes you need the boost to your confidence to keep you motivated.
  4. When I had the beard, and was 300lb I was hit on by 3 dudes in a 2 year time period..2 times in the gym locker room...Once at a Dunkin Doughnuts.....Felt a bit empowering actually.
  5. I know its a curse...I got the 20 something year old girls beating down my door...My wife is so jelly now...lol
  6. Damn...You do not look 247 at all...
  7. No plastic surgery, I got a little skin but just looks like a 43 year old dudes skin...Nothing crazy..
  8. recent pic, stuck at 222.8lbs...lol
  9. Seems like a good and sustainable weight for you! Keep up the good work.
  10. Great work! You actually look exactly like a friend of mine..
  11. Still dropping a few lbs..Down to 221 this morning. These are the most recent, from a 47" waist to a 34/36" waist.
  12. Some of my most recent ones.. Down from a 47" waist to a loose 36" sometime 34"...
  13. I hope that's a "dang" of approval ???
  14. Same here...Wish I did it sooner...Pain is nothing...Best decision I ever made.
  15. Before 298lbs after 225lbs Im 5-11.5 tall.
  16. I just eat like a normal human being and stay away from crap. portion control is key first and foremost in my opinion. Secondly is selection of foods for your specific needs and goals. I prefer a higher protein, higher fats lower carbs diet, which works well for my needs. Third most important is DO NOT deprive yourself totally. If you want an occasional treat, have it, just dont over indulge. Stay away from processed cold cuts, sodas, sucralose and anything with the words Frutcose or corn syrup in it...Also I hate the fact that a lot of these nutritionists push cheeses as a source of protein on their clients. Cheese is high in saturated fat and not worth it as a source of protein in your diet.
  17. Thanks Bruh! New video in the works..This week sometime.
  18. you will feel very hungry until you start eating solid foods. Then the feeling of satisfaction is there when you eat!!!
  19. You all look AMAZING!! Im so proud to be part of this community !!
  20. Glad this all worked out in the end my friend! Here is to a new you and a new lease on life! Im honored you messaged me for support and happy it all worked out for you in the end!!!
  21. Thank you so much...Im really proud of how far I have come in such a short time..I almost want to walk around in my boxers..lol
  22. I do a little, mostly right around my naval. and higher up on my stomach area, but not as extreme as I have seen some. I think perhaps Im still young enough where it will tone up a bit. Right now it just looks like a woman who just had a child and deflated around the belly, but I never had any stretch marks to start.
