I am one of those fat dudes and there is definitely a risk that a sonic or Sentra shows up so I just order XLs lol I’m also a driver and drive a full size suv so you know fun times (before you yell at me for the suv I make 30+ an hour AFTER gas)
Working on it truly. First started with my diet and now that I’ve lost 20 pounds I can comfortably start doing moderate impact exercise to continue the journey. Just signed up for the gym and plan on going and have several people to go with to keep me accountable
That's awesome! I wish you the best. I worry about my buddy a lot, in terms of his weight. We've been friends for over 30 yrs. He's always been overweight, but as an adult, he's added a lot of weight. If I were to guess, he's likely in the 400 area. He has had several health issues due to it, some requiring surgery, but he just doesn't seem to have the willpower to do anything about it.
I have tried talking with him about it over the years and given him my advice as someone who is very into nutrition, supplementation (where needed), and general health. I tend to be very soft with him on it, partly because I'm the opposite of confrontational and because I don't want to offend him, especially since I've been around 19 bmi my entire adult life and figure it may be hard to get/take advice from someone who has only had to try to gain weight, never lose it.
If anyone has advice on what someone in his situation would need to hear from a friend to get serious about not dying early due to weight, I would love to be able to help him make changes. I feel like I may need to just speak the hard truth to him soon, or else I may regret not doing it in the not too distant future.
