Hi /fit/, Anonymous B. Tard here.

The picture here is me at my healthiest, four years ago. I'm six four and in the picture I weighed 250. I had just returned from Outward Bound and a vegetarian active lifestyle and never felt better. My friends all talked about my energy and my positive behavior and how nice of a change it was. I returned to college and a very sedentary lifestyle and my depression returned like a motherfucker.

These days, I weigh 310lbs. I'm pre-diabetic - probably hyperglycemic, definitely in the early stages of hypertension. My mom's family is all really big. We're all overweight, but the body frame on that side is just massive. My dad's family is a bit more slender, tall but lean. I want to be more like my dad's family. 6'4, 180-190. And to achieve that end, I've more or less stopped eating.

I'm tired of being the fat kid. I know I'm not doing the right things right now, but it kinda makes me feel good - a sort of lazy satisfaction in knowing that I'm doing nothing and losing weight.

/fit/, this is more of a confession than me seeking advice. I know what a healthy lifestyle is - I just can't get there right now. I don't have an eating disorder, I don't think, just disordered eating. I can tolerate that for a while until my life slows down a little bit (said: once I find that post-college job here within the next few weeks). Why I've made this confession is I want to know if anyone can help me with some advice for how to get myself on track. Obviously eat right and exercise, but those aren't on the books right now. How far should I take this? Should I just ride this until I'm under 300? 290? I don't want to continue this and make this a lifestyle, but I need something to jumpstart me, and this seems like it'll work.

I NEVER MEANT TO BE SO BAD TO YOU

ONE THING I SAID THAT I COULD NEVER DO

Yeh I lost weight like you are attmpting to do. Unfortunately goddamn all my muscle wasted away and I had to work twic as hard to recover it than I would have done just losing weight the conventional way. On top of that I gained a shitload back because of my fucked metabolism so it really isnt woth it.
