Search Results: weight loss diets

Inspired by this question here, but also real life, cause I have to drink one liter daily now. I tried the "all water diet" before weight loss surgery. I bought this $25, four liter jug of water. And truth be told, I couldn't do it! NINE POUNDS of water, daily? Tap water, too. (Since I don't have money to be buying Spring Water like that.) And lukewarm tap water after an hour or two. Everyday, I BARELY made it to halfway through the bottle.

Lots of people, especially health people, like to claim they could easily drink this much water every single day. But come on... Be honest with yourself. Could you really drink four liters, one gallon, nine pounds, four kilograms of water, every single day? Let's just say, for at least 60 days.

And no, you don't get the American-style gallon jugs either (those seem way easier to down, due to its "slim at the top" shape). It's gotta be this big 4 liter jug up here. And tap water, too. You can refrigerate it and keep it cold, though. Straw optional.

Eggs are nutritious; they're packed with vitamins, minerals, and key proteins. Benefits of eating eggs include assisting with weight loss, raising good cholesterol, and maintaining eye health. Most adults can eat one egg a day as part of a healthy diet, and vegetarians can eat two.

The BIG QUESTION... how do you crack your eggs?

I've been overweight my entire life. Both of my parents had sh*tty genetics and I inherited 100% of all of their sh*tty DNA (it's the main reason why I'll never conceive kids).

I've been contemplating weight loss surgery for a while now, even before I've put on extra weight. Even back in 2018, I was thinking about bariatric surgery, and I weighed less then. I decided against it because it seemed too extreme and I figured proper exercise and diet would be enough.

I've been semi-regularly going to martial arts gyms since 2012. I used to do Jiu Jitsu & Judo, then Boxing, then Powerlifting, then MMA, and here in Korea, Kickboxing. Never lost any weight at all. The number NEVER went down on the scale! Not that it matters or anything, but part of it might be because I have a minor medical condition called Hypothyroidism.

I remember joining a cardio gym shortly after high school in 2006 and having my personal trainer flirt with me and make inappropriate comments towards me, whether she was on the clock or not. It was uncomfortable, because I was 245 lbs (111 kg) back then and even that felt unattractive to me.

In 2013, I first started keeping a daily food log and counting calories (spoiler: it's useless and stupid to do so). I was 275 lbs (128 kg) then.

In early 2019, I remember hitting 300 lbs (136 kg) for the first time and I felt awful about it, because I've never once been a glutton or an overeater.

Now I'm at my heaviest at like 315 lbs (145 lbs), at least.

I'm 181 cm in the morning waking up, and 179 cm at the end of the day.

I f*cking HATE this body of mine, because literally not a single thing about it works right! After years in martial arts gyms and absolutely nothing to show for it, weight wise, I've decided I might as well just get the stomach sleeve surgery since I'm not getting any younger or taller. Doing the surgery will mean I can probably can't do martial arts again or will gain much muscle, but chances are, it's a moot point.
