Fucken fat bastard (obese) here... my problem is two fold. I live to eat, I love my food a lot and its been a struggle to cut back on carbs, I cant stand low carb beer, I love a fresh roll or pasta soaked in olive oil. Whats more I tend not to eat until I'm really hungry, at which point i devour a cow, two lambs and a sperm whale, well not to that extent but I do (used to) over eat.
The other problem is little physical excercise.... I work in IT so i'm a 9/5 desk jockey. I get out and about when I have to see clients within the CBD but its hardly excercise.
I've started to ride into work (10 km trip each way) but as soon as it got cold my motivation went out the window, however when I was riding in I saw my fitness go leaps and bounds in the first 6-8 weeks.
I do realise that diet is as important as physical activity but the idea of 'eating' shakes for breakfast and lunch is hard to swallow, however I have cut down my meal portions, cut out all carbs from lunch and try not to eat anything after 6:30 pm.
What i really need to do though is get back on the bike and give it another fang.
Whats odd though, looking back at photos from my raving prime I looked well skinny however at that time I still thought i was a fat fuck... but here I am... 25 kilos heavier
the reason why you dont seem to put weight on and can eat anything you want while you are a hard raver im talking every weekend is you dont eat for a couple of days nor sleep amd then expend alot of energy dancing, your appetite is also supressed for a few days after the weekend and usualy wont come back to normal to thursday friday when guess what you do it all over again.
so basicall you are starving yourself, have you ever seen a rave buddy say a year after they have stopped raving? then are usualy FAT because your body has spent so long in starvation that it wants to store every bit of energy your consume.
if you get your asses into some excersise or a regular gym workout then you can almost eat anything you want in reason.
my wife looks fuckn fantastic and friday night we ate indian, sat she ate a block of choclate and half pack of tim tams, today the rest of the tim tams another pack of choc biscuts some twiggy sticks but..... sat she trains 6 days a week to be able to enjoy the things we like and not look shit.
