Curnaco ~ How is the battle going? I am hoping that you compromised and found something that didn't upset your wife, but still allowed you the time you need to exercise.
Weight Back ON :( (From 215 to 150 and from 150 to 200) Post #32 (permalink)
Men typically lose weight more easily than women because of the muscle mass that testosterone allows. If you are seriously eating the same thing as your wife and you are putting on weight and she is losing weight, you need to see your doctor.
There are many other factors than food as to why she would not be gaining. What is her job like? Does she drink a lot of water? What do the two of you eat when you are not together? I am not going to tell you how not to gain weight back, because you are there. I am glad that you had the courage to post your story and to start again. If you are eating a lot, I would recommend going to the nutrition section of some fast food websites. I find it very surprising how high in calories, fat, and sodium things are, but also it is very interesting to compare options. One fast food's burger is the same as another's double burger. At some places, three chicken sandwiches is the same as a burger. Fries are a killer. Try to see if you really love fries and are noticing yourself eating them, or if they are mindless fillers or just a way to save money with a combo. I find I crave fries but am indifferent about them when I am eating them most of the time. Also, if you are trying to save a buck with a combo, remember that at fast food restaurants, most of the time the really cheap stuff has the most calories. The money you save will just have to be used down the line for exercise gear or such. Good luck at getting back on track!

I personally went from 220 to 117 and then all the way up to 285.
the only thing worse than being fat in the first place, is losing a lot of weight and then gaining a whole lot more back. 117 was VERY low, and I was REALLY skinny, too skinny (though I had achieved a high metabolism, I wasn't starving myself ), but I ended up becoming huge later.
I'm planning to keep it off this time. I won't make the same mistakes.

Stancel you hit the nail on the head!!! It's one thing to be overweight but to make it down to being lean and knowing how good it feels then gaining all back is more painful than being big to begin with!

So after going from 215 pound to 150 (In 7 months) I am now back at the 200s. sad I know. This crap keeps happening to me again and again. I think I love food too much. I put the weight back on due to inactivity and eating out all the time with my Skinny Beautiful Wife (110 pounds)
I am writing this to let everyone know that PLEASE watch what you eat. Eating out is the WORSE and lack of exercise is bad as well.
Anyways, I am controlling myself again now and exercising more and more and watching what I eat.
I wanted to vent with you guys and tell you my misfortune.
This is going to be fun, Lets the Fat attack begging AGAIN!
you can do this man you just gotta stick with it run at that wall head first and break through it
Good luck at getting back on track!
