From /FAT/ To Veeky Forums tell us your story

I actually liked one the girls, shame I couldnt make social gains.

much better first time i actually got noticed for once

Got a lot more smiles. People were all around nicer to me. I don't feel self conscious making eye contact anymore. I feel proud of my body, it's a good feel.

>was 225
>get down to 150
>people start to finally look at me
>woman actually asks me out
>we kiss
>I get ghosted
>feel like shit
>no woman has seemed to notice me since then
>tried a few times asking others out
>get answers like too busy or some other bull

Losing weight and working out hasn’t changed shit.

Finally stopped being invisible to women, now some are checking me out which feels pretty damn good, and even that hot as fuck latina at my workplace said that if she wasnt married she would be all over me (i think she was sincere there, shes flirty with me all the time)

Too bad im still 25 kissless virgin that cannot advance towards any girl that smiles at me, or im not attracted to them.


I think i have too high standards for some godawfull reason

>we kiss
>i get ghosted

how tf
was your breath hygiene bad or some shit

>men
generally show more respect and seem to like me and aspire to be as dedicated to fitness or work than I currently am. lesser men look up to me and guys on par respect me. getting quite a few mires

>blacks and muslims
I always walk with good posture and look people in the eye. ofc not all minorities are aggressive but the ones that are meet my gaze and usually nod in my direction and dont bother to start shit. it is strange it seems like they respect me for my physical appearance and seek weaker prey or some shit. that being said I dont take their shit at all and I dont mind sitting next to them in public transport even if they look like they wanna be left alone but they never complain and non-verbally it is just understood that I am ready to defend myself if they wanna start shit.

>girls
not really much has changed I am still the same autistic guy. when I drink a bit of alcohol and am more "normal" they seem to be into me but that only lasts until I meet them sober and sperg around

Nah, I’m pretty sure that at the end of it all she was just using me. Plus I even bleached my teeth before our first date. She was some bi thot that got with me after ending it with a chick.

>graduate HS at 5'10 250
>get job, experience in real world
>tired of being the fat guy
>started walking around park not far from home
>start jogging in spurts as long as I can
>eventually do a full lap jogging (1 mile figure 8)
>start stopping every time the paths cross and do push ups and sit ups to failure in grass
>start running in spurts
>run full lap now
>buy a treadmill and can now go 5 miles a day 5 days a week
>make it down to 160 and start lifting
>that was a month and a half ago
I have some dumbbells some plates and an oly bar. Being fat I'm too self conscious to go to a gym yet, maybe after I put on 10-20lbs of muscle. People treat me with more respect, ive become more of a presence, my word is generally authoritaive and I get bants and flirting with qts at work now. I realize i was a fat shit but im going to make this goddamn world my oyster.

>fat girls
more success in that regard but I have 0 interest in persueing them so that is irrelevant to me.

>gym bros
sometimes mire my lifts, sometimes catch me mirin. generally without talking I just feel like we are brothers in this fight against mediocrity. I dont talk to a lot of these people but they greet me, nod when I catch them mirin my lift and it feels like without talking a bond has formed.

>girls in the gym
whenever I DL or OHP and a girl that is new to the gym (NYR get out REEEEE) they are mirin. I think they literally cant comprehend that I can OHP their body weight for reps. Never really leads to anything because I have my headphones on and am in the zone like an autist but I guess it is the most obvious mire I get from qt girls.

How tall are you that 150 doesn't make you look like a fucking twig?

Dude great job and keep it up, I'm a manlet and was 200 pounds five months ago. Now I'm 145 and getting to ottermode just from working out at home with sit ups, pull ups, push ups and light dumbell stuff. Once you lose most of the fat its crazy how fast you see the muscle improvment

All in all a mixed bag really. Was it worth it, I guess. But say what you will about bat and lazy me, at least he was happy

I’m 18 and I went from ~265 to 160 now starting in mid March 2017. I started getting a lot of complements at work around the summer time, since that was when I lost the bulk of my weight. Before when I was fat, I didn’t really talk with my coworkers much but it was almost every day where someone different would comment about how skinny I am and asking me what my “secret” was. It was pretty monatonous, but I was okay with it, since I like the attention. People don’t really go out of their way to talk to me, since I’m an introvert, but I still occasionally get people asking me about my weight loss.

5’8”
I know, I’m a fucking manlet

One of my favorite mires was from a fat guy at university who wanted me to give him weight loss advice. when I told him it was just diet and exercise he was a bit disappointed but then proceeded with. "I bet your gf made you lose the weight haha"

I was flattered that he was so sure I must have a gf, needless to say I was a KV at the time but I had to go along because i didnt want to crush his spirit. I hope to god he made it,...

265 to 160 in 9 months is crazy man. Good work! Your future self thanks you, I know it.

3 months for 45 pounds? What was your daily calorie consumption?

+no one bullies me
+i'm a bit more confident and don't feel as inferior to others as i used to
+i can wear nice clothes (probably the worst aspect of being fat, everything looks like garbage on your)
+i can get away with doing more stupid stuff
+lifting is popular so it's a nice conversation starter

-didn't get a gf
-didn't make that many friends

personnality is still the most important

100ish lbs in 9 months? What was your daily calorie consumption?

Only difference I’ve noticed is my female coworkers touch me a lot more during happy hours.

People were mostly just really amazed I lost a lot of weight. They still mostly hated me just the way they did before I lost weight.

Thanks bro, we're gonna make it. I know everyone says cardio kills gains but I'm gonna keep at it till I'm close to single digit bf% I want to be lean when I start to really lay on some mass.

Nice bro, also 18, started at 305 three months ago and now am 223.

We're all going to make it.

I've never been fit but I love to browse Veeky Forums

one ~800cal meal a day.
it was unhealthy but i had no muscle mass to speak of anyway so it was worth it.

I’m 6 foot so my TDEE nowadays is like 2400 kcal, I only started using MFP like 4 months ago so when I first started I immediately cut out soda/fast food, and ate very small portions. I didn’t count at this time, but I couldn’t imagine myself eating more than 1500 kcal, I mostly ate whatever my mom cooked, which tends to be pretty healthy. I will say though that I lost the weight a little too fast, considering I still have some loose skin on my belly. The first 4 months weren’t fun, but it was worth it

Ive been lifting for about a year, got into the best shape of my life. BF 22%+ -> ~13%.

Suddenly i start hearing my mother, who ive never heard expressing similar opinions before, expressing her hatred for fat people on a regular basis.

Unsure whether to be sad she obviously loathed me for years, or happy that ive made it to the point where she feels comfortable sharing her hate with me

>330
>Dropped to 150 then lifted and bulked to 180
>Took me awhile to get the insecure inner fatty out of my mindset
>The way people and especially girls treat you is completely different
>Girls laugh at everything I say and have no chance when I try to get them
>Men instantly respect you more overall
>Buuuuut I get challenged/shittested by inferior males more now. It's like they try to get me down to feel better about themselves
>Just joke with them and then fuck their crushes
>Okay that last part only happened 2 times

Life is fucking goooood.

How have you dealt with your manboobs when you lost weight? im gonna get checked out if its gyno because they are not going away. I dont wanna do surgery im afraid itll fuck up or something

>>Just joke with them and then fuck their crushes
>>Okay that last part only happened 2 times

Back then I looked like a standard morbidly obese neckbeard. Girl said the other day I obviously get my good looks from my eastern European family when I told her I had family out there. Honestly was speechless. Never thought of myself as anything more than disgusting and a freak my entire life. I never even chose it, was morbidly obese before I even started school thanks to my parents. Just happy I finally got it done desu.

It's amazing what you can do when you're attractive

330 to 150... how fucking tall are you. You must have a ton of extra fucking skin.

I'm 6 foot and weighed 245 at one point with 2 and a half chins and I was a skelly at 170

I'm pretty 5/10 on the eyes, so honestly not a whole lot differently. I have the attitude of a sarcastic jackass, so people genuinely don't respect me since I don't really respect people in general. I'm fit tho, so nobody wanting to throw fits.

People aren't really going to treat you all that different for how you look, it's about how you carry yourself and treat others.

I'm not going to disagree with you on that. Being attractive has so many conveniences to it from better pay to better sex to better respect. With the low bar set out there right now a lot of what people have to do is just not be a fat fuck and life gets so much easier.

6'1. Yes had saggy arms, tits, legs, and a stomach pouch. Filled it all up with muscles except for the stoamch pouch which became a big ass scar after removing it. I'm also covered with stretch marks and wherever you pull you can stretch my skin. Never had a girl, even the extremely hot and shallow ones, make a problem about it. They always hugely respect me for losing the weight and every fucking single one of them thinks it's.fun to tease my by pulling my skin. If you look Veeky Forums with clothes on, have a 7/10 face and golden tongue you can get away with anything.

You have no idea what kind of degeneracy happens behind closed doors

I went from a twig with jello arms who weighed 160 lbs. at 5'10" to weighing 188 lbs., and hitting the 1,000 club. Now that I have muscle definition and a good figure, though, things are arguably more of a pain because more people approach and talk to me only to discover I still have the same autism as the skinnyfat geek I used to be.

Does the stomach look Semi-normal after the surgery? I'm in the same boat as you were rn, trying to decide if I should get the surgery or not.

Abs are visible, still have stretchmarks and the scar is big af but way better and more aesthetic, especially clothed, than when I was an obeast. I also give 0 fucks. Like I said girls care alot less about that shit than you think. I only got rejected once because of it and she felt like shit about it and her friends thought badly of her for that aswell.

I will admit it took me quite a while to get over it and accept it. But hey the damage is done, no reason to sob about it and let it limit you.
