I seem to have gained a bit of a stomach since wrestling season... any ideas on how to lose it? :D I weigh like 150 now... - (Fat ass here)- and its not pure muscle :p.

I weighed like 135 a few times during wrestling...

Preferbally i would like to lose this before tuesday... but any plan would work.

(Reason being: I sort of have a date at the pool with Tracy on Tuesday... ;) Wanna look my best.)

And Damnit am i white! My whole upper-body (Except my arms...) is white like a paper. I knew i shoulda took off my shirt sometime...

I suspect that if you had been a female saying "I need to lose some weight", several board members would have rushed to your side, consoling you and telling you "You're beautiful just like you are, you don't need to subject your body to any dangerous weight loss." They would probably sing the blues about how women have such low self-esteem problems and that society is so unfair to women. No doubt the subject of eating disorders would be brought up, as well.

However, since you're a male, don't expect anybody to tell you that you're fine just the way you are. Don't expect anybody to rush to your side and console you. Nobody cares that it's dangerous for you to lose a large amount of weight in a short amount of time. Nobody will care that you could develop an eating disorder. Nobody cares that your self-esteem may need improving.

You're a male, so grin and bear it.

Hope that brightens your day.

Edit: And Napnip's right...I've seen plenty of guys with eating disorders. Good post, Napnip.

When I was knee high to a tadpole my father told me something I've carried with me for years.

He said to me, "Son, if you want to lose 10lbs of ugly fat, cut off your gol dern head."

I keep his head in a bucket wherever I go.

a spare tire? do lots of abs, and not just abs, preferably not just your abs (ie doing sit ups with your legs streatched out and above the ground)

TripleXXX, tell your winkie to get in shape! I bet thats the real problem. I've noticed he has been spending more and more time around here on the slacker boards, which is time that he could be spending working out or something. :D
If you let a winkie get lazy, it just weighs you down.

Seriously, umm, running works well for losing weight. You have to run hard though if you want to lose it fast, which means no jogging! Also, try to get in some kind of workout before bed, even if its a short one. The problem is often that people eat a big dinner, go to bed, and then all those calories never get burned, and they go straight to fat. Just my opinion anyway. :)

Winkie is a valuable organ. He stays.

I think for a wrestler 135 seems too light IMO. Also you're a 6 foot and 150 is the best weight to be* . Wanna get dark? Come over here :D Everyday is summer.


*Provided it is muscle and not FAT!
I'm 5f 9in now and weigh around 150 (muscle, DUH :) ). Try some weights to get rid of the fat and put in some muscle (and if you don't know, muscle burns fat even when your not active, yes even while you're sleeping). Your ass to big? I dunno what to do about that butt :) ; try to squat down and stand up (dunno what thats called) and to make it harder, put some weight on your shoulders. Most important, like said, RUNNING! That really helps you a lot.

Best of luck Trip! :)

Why don't you graze like a cow, pack on another fifty pounds or so and wrestle with the big boys ? Think about it...

Trip
06-08-01, 01:06 PM
Erm... Yeah. :)

I think 135 was the best weight for me- i don't have too much muscle mass.

I attempted to use my weight-machine, and broke a sweat in 5 minutes... i must be out of shape.

my teacher who was also a personal trainer said teh best way to lose inches was to suck it in. This would in time tighten up your inner abs and bring everything in so give it a try if you like. Me I'm also 150 but unlike you I'm trying to put on weight as I look like a twig.

Churley, take Creatin. That stuff rocks, is a natural substance, and it's the only thing I've ever found that actually works... Good stuff along with a prudent diet.

You may want to try out the drug Ephedrine (yes, it's legal in most states). A mild stimulant, ephedrine is one of the few drugs that has been proven to aid in fat loss without the loss of muscle mass. Popularized by it's use in bronchial dialation (alleviation of athsmatic symtoms) effects, it later began to play a strong role in weight loss medications.

Due to it's extreme stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system in large doses, it has become almost taboo for regular use, although if you play it safe, like many other drugs it can provide beneficial results in weight loss and/or fat reduction. It is natural in nature, not chemically processed like other stimulants such as meth or cocaine. It can become toxic when used in excess of 150 mg or so a day.

My recommendation: I would use this drug (if available at your local quickie mart, sold as bronchiodialators) 3 times daily, ingesting about 12.5-25 mg's at a time (read the label for the amount in each pill). This drug will provide a slight to moderate stimulation, with side effects including dry mouth, nervousness, and loss of appetite for up to 4 hours (the normal half life). It is always best to include some sort of excercise while using this drug...it will help ease any nervousness (depends on the user) you may have, along with assisting you in your workout energy wise.

You will build tolerance to this drug quickly, but do keep in mind that this drug can become very toxic in high doses (just like many other drugs). When used properly, it is very useful, and is as safe as Tylenol.

I have used it routinely before, and I lost a lot of body fat, but never muscle. When I used to be very active, I was very lean and very muscularly defined. Then I discovered beer. :D

Good luck bro!

A disease where someone wouldn't want to eat, or even better, spend money on food, eat it, then puke it all up afterwards! That is just lame. You don't want to eat? Well, why don't you go not eat somewhere else.

Oh, and Trip, good luck at the pool. Ask her how long can she hold her breath. :D
