If it makes you feel better, I was just told I'm too fat for the navy.

[–]accostedbyhippies 66 points67 points ago

Same thing happened to a good friend of mine. But then they enrolled him in some sort of program. He lost 90 pounds before going off to basic and then and 30 or so during, went off to sub school and became a nuclear technician on a sub. So its doable. If that what you want to do, there's are ways to get there.

[–]w00tbear 37 points38 points ago

something about this post reminds me of captain america...

[–]captainmorgan23 26 points27 points ago

"some sort of program"

quite suspicious...

[–]accostedbyhippies 4 points5 points ago

Yeah, we were hoping he'D come back with some cyborg parts or something, but really it was just a bunch of classes on nutrition and a lot of exercise.

    Just had a Navy recruiter on campus trying to recruit people for the nuclear officer program. They were giving away these nice bags if you signed up for it. I managed to get the bag and a water bottle out of it! Suckers!

    [–]Keyserchief 3 points4 points ago

    Let me know how cool that bag seems when you're sleeping in your car at Nuke Power School. Or you could be a badass and join the surface fleet...

    [–]mrbooze 0 points1 point ago

    Why sleeping in car? (Friend of mine's son went to school for nuclear sub training and I don't recall hearing that one.)

    [–]Memitim 0 points1 point ago

    Do they not have barracks in South Carolina? And is nuclear field now exclusive to subs? Apparently things have changed a whole lot since I went to nuke school, or I got kicked out of school too soon to experience the car sleeping phase.

    [–]accostedbyhippies 1 point2 points ago

    I talked to a Army recruiter when I was 17. Mostly to get a free boonie hat. I got two phones calls and all kinds of mail from him, and the his replacement until I was 26. I still have the hat though, so... worth it?

    [–]NextName 1 point2 points ago

    This seems like a really nice bag, to be fair. It's a draw string bag, but it has a flap on it too if you don't want to close the strings. It has a hole in it too for headphones. Nice thick, sturdy strings, too.

    [–]Team_Khalifa -1 points0 points ago

    They gave me that stuff when I was 8....went Air Force though

    [–]Memitim 1 point2 points ago

    That's how I went in. I had to wear a purple headband in boot camp during certain events to indicate that I was an increased health risk. Me and the dude with sickle cell anemia. Good times.

    I never did make it to sub school, though, as it got it pulled when I went to captain's mast and got booted from nuke school. It did drop the obligatory two year extension off of my enlistment so no regrets.

    [–]ripewdecay 1 point2 points ago

    My sister was about 160, 170 and 5'5 (or maybe 5'4), so the army put her on a training regimen. She lost 20-30 lbs during PT and looked GREAT, she weighed less than me for the first time in her life and I was jealous (she was teased for being chubby in our family. ) Lo and behold- she gets married, puts it back on and then some. And now she had a baby- she is quite frankly obese at this point. She discounts remarks "hey you really shouldn't be eating Waddaburger(sp?)" and thinks she's going to drop it off in no-time but the only time she lost weight was during PT. She does some menial inspection work at a US fort but I thought there were at least some types of standards to how fit their soldiers were because she's been "obese" for like a good year or so.

    [–]latecraigy 1 point2 points ago

    Did you get taped? If you fail your weigh-ins, you can get taped, and if your anthros are within limits, you're cool. Now if you failed a PFA, that's an entirely different matter.

    [–]XtremelyNiceRedditor -1 points0 points ago

    did they tell you to suck your stomach in? (which is what I had to do to get in)

    [–]MagmaGuy 5 points6 points ago

    He's eating 3 meals of rubber a day, the chewing is so intense it creates muscles.

    [–]BassFlux -3 points-2 points ago

    Guess what dude, takes a different amount of work from each individual to be in shape. I'm 6'4 so if I were 180 I would look like a stick figure, and nutritionists actually recommend 5 smaller healthy meals a day, it's better to space out your calories. Good luck with the models, smallfry.

    [–]GiveMeRoot 6 points7 points ago

    5 meals a day is recommended for psychological reasons and nothing else.

    "it's better to space out your calories". Maybe on a psychological level for some people. But spreading them out doesn't achieve much.

    [–]HeyOP 2 points3 points ago

    Citation?

    [–]GiveMeRoot 5 points6 points ago

    I am not making the positive claim here. There is no evidence it boosts metabolism.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burden_of_proof

    Furthermore: http://www.leangains.com/2010/10/top-ten-fasting-myths-debunked.html

    "The most extensive review of studies on various meal frequencies and TEF was published in 1997. It looked at many different studies that compared TEF during meal frequencies ranging from 1-17 meals and concluded:

    "Studies using whole-body calorimetry and doubly-labelled water to assess total 24 h energy expenditure find no difference between nibbling and gorging".

    Since then, no studies have refuted this. For a summary of the above cited study, read this research review by Lyle McDonald.

    Earlier this year, a new study was published on the topic. As expected, no differences were found between a lower (3 meals) and higher meal (6 meals) frequency. Read this post for my summary of the study. This study garnered some attention in the mass media and it was nice to see the meal frequency myth being debunked in The New York Times."

    I thought this was common knowledge by now...

    [–]HeyOP 0 points1 point ago

    Fun thing about knowledge is if it's not repeated fairly often it will become uncommon in short order. Thank you for your reply.

    I'd take the 5' 110 lb girl i know over a 6' 100 lb model anyday.

    reasons: left boob, right boob, butt, personality

    [–]sunnysol17 0 points1 point ago

    there are plenty of 5' 110 lb girls who have less attractive personalities than tall skinny girls. (Side question: Is 100 lbs even possible for a 6' tall person?)

    [–]Danny_Bomber 0 points1 point ago

    well i said model not tall skinny girl.

    [–]sunnysol17 0 points1 point ago

    Same goes for models. I have a feeling you haven't personally met many models, so I don't think you can say you have an accurate gauge of their personalities.

        cute face, that's true.

        But she really is quite a handful (NSFW) if you see all (NSFW) of her body. Especially her backside(NSFW) is a bit of a letdown(NSFW)

        Shes's pornstar Foxy Roxxie (NSFW), and she makes porn like this (NSFW). Some guys seem to love seeing obese girls eating (video/NSFW)

        But her face is really cute.

        [–]nameless88 22 points23 points ago

        [–]auntiecoagulant 10 points11 points ago

        She's adorable, plus she makes me look svelte. I like her.

        [–]fleckes 2 points3 points ago

        Different strokes for different folks. I really like her from the tits upwards. So the gif mr-peabody posted is quite up my alley. It's just that girls as obese as her most of the time have a backside and thighs (heavily obese men too, I guess. But I don't look much at nude pics of obese men's asses) that are a real turn off for me.

        [–]auntiecoagulant 3 points4 points ago

        Obese men's asses are not at the top of my list of favorites either. I'm like you though about the top half, of a chunky guy in my case, being really cute but the bottom half can be a deal-breaker. Fat thighs and butts are't a turnoff to me, it's all the gut rolls and back-boobs that are icky to me.

        Namio Harukawa draws beautiful large women. Their proportions aren't always realistic though, more like enlarged versions of normally proportioned women. It's a lot of forced face-sitting femdom stuff so stay away if you don't like that kind of thing. Or you're at work.

        Dunno why you're getting downvotes here. She's fucking cute, you'd figure guys would want to know the source on her. (I already knew the source, and was gonna share, if no one else did, haha)

        [–]IrishSim 0 points1 point ago

        Well I did edit it, before I had just said she was a pornstar. Maybe they thought it was an insult? But i dunno if anyone else on reddit will be interested in the kind of stuff she does. XD

        [–]nameless88 9 points10 points ago

        Yeah, haha. Well, there are subreddits like gonewildplus and stuff, I'm sure they know her and like what she does.

        But, Reddit does seem to be predominantly against fat chicks, doesn't it?

        [–]IrishSim 2 points3 points ago

        So far from what I have gathered about reddit is... 1) Liberialsm is always the awnser 2) Atheism is the only right way to think 3) If you don't fit into those two catagory's then don't speak.

        [–]nameless88 5 points6 points ago

        I have a theory that reddit works as a reverse hivemind. The more of us together in one thread, the more stupid we collectively become.

        The small subreddits? Great people, wonderful conversations. The big ones/default subreddits? Circlejerk, ahoy!

            I know a guy who actually became a worse person after he lost all the weight. He became an overall negative and judgmental person. He used to be really humble and kind, but now all he does is post statuses like "Hey, I know you like my pecs, but my eyes are up here!" and "Ugh I can't stand seeing people eat unhealthy food", yet he used to do that ALL THE TIME. It's like being fat actually made him a better person on the inside.

            [–]IDriveAVan 0 points1 point ago

            It's like people who get rich and all of a sudden start loathing the lower class. Everyone's so quick to only identify with the present version of themselves.

            That's so sad. :( I'm in the process of losing weight. I always said(jokingly) "when I lose the weight, I'll have every right to be that bitch you hate". I hope I don't actually fallow through with that. Then again, being kind little me has gotten me nowhere so far. Hah

              The pictures? Why not? I understand motivation is not completely in your hands, but they should encourage you... especially since so many people do it.

              [–]bmoviescreamqueen 0 points1 point ago

              They just don't. I can be like "Sure, I'll do it tomorrow." And I never do.

              That's my problem actually. I lose motivation really fast. And I'm addicted to food, which makes me really anxious when i know i can't eat. ...i know, i.don't believe in me either.

              [–]shamoni 2 points3 points ago

              Look, this is the way I see it. This might not work for you, but it's just a point of view. Everything we are, and everything we think we can be is just that, thoughts. Reality is that we're very minuscule, and what we do does not really matter in the grand scheme of things. Having said that, time's passing man. This is the only reality we have, and it's not changing itself. I kept my hopes up on my degree, insisted that it'll help me snag a decent job that challenged me, but it doesn't work that way.

              You make stuff happen. And don't go expecting the world to change, but all you can do is be the best you can be. Challenging yourself, and winning mini battles is what it's all about. Even if it doesn't work in the way you want it to (physical change can be a lot about getting acceptance from others), you'll be in better shape, and that works for you, you know? In this entire universe, the only thing you got control of is yourself. Exercise that control. I should be the last person doling out advice, but this is it man. You think you over eat as of October 11th 2012, you're not getting another shot at it. The only chance you have is to eat as much as you think is right as of October 12th 2012. And keep doing that.

              This probably is going overboard already, but with weight loss, it's not that you can't eat, it's more that you choose not to. Which is what makes it fascinating to me in the first place. As for belief in you, I'm not gonna sit here and claim I know the first thing about you, you just try and make a choice.

              Cheers.

                As someone in the middle of losing 80 lbs (35 in 3 months so far), I feel like I missed out on a massive karma train.

                Nothing tastes as good as being thin feels... except for karma (and prolly bacon).

                [–]jdowpcs 4 points5 points ago

                Same here. Im still not thin, persay, 214 down from 268, but I don't wear XLs and XXLs anymore!

                [–]The_Rat_Cook 9 points10 points ago

                The best part about keto is being thin while eating bacon.

                This is from the TV show Glee. Season one episode 18.

                .

                [–]arumberg 17 points18 points ago

                She was the best character on the show. I'm sad they got rid of her :(

                Really? I've only seen one episode and the whole Diva Fat Girl that don't need no man attitude was disgusting and annoying.

                [–]brbrcrbtr 7 points8 points ago

                Why was it disgusting?

                [–]Nivardica 0 points1 point ago

                What? She was an excellent character.

                [–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

                Glee is a show where they basically take a stereotype (oversexed confidant fat girl, sassy fat black girl, flamboyant gay boy, enthusiastic idealistic teacher, dumb prettyboy jock, etc) and just roll with them. They don't try to move the characters outside of their niche, but they keep the exposing these stereotypical characters to different situations, and forcing them to react in some way. It humanizes them, and while they usually stay in their boxes, they gain depth.

                It's a tricky thing to do, and the show often screws up spectacularly. It's definitely hit-or-miss.

                I liked her plot in part because the over-sexed idiot character liked her, in spite of the fact she didn't look like any of his previous girlfriends, and had zero angst about it. He just realized what he wanted, and didn't let that influence his perception of himself.

                But I think her character was kicked off before she had a chance to gain some depth the way Santana or Kurt did, for example. So I get that there was a lot about her character that could be unappealing.

                      I eat a Skinnycow if I'm dying for ice cream. Usually between 80-140 cals, depending on the ice cream you get. Taste good! :D

                      [–]Psythik 0 points1 point ago

                      I hate you. Been on a strict keto diet for a month now & go on bike rides 3x a week, yet I haven't shed a single pound.

                      I guess some people are just meant to be fat.

                      [–]awesome_nards 3 points4 points ago

                      Man, I feel for ya actually. Some people are gonna be bigger than others, but you can still slim down and take care of yourself. I've been through the Marine Corps, done martial arts, and just exercised anytime I felt out of shape. I've been doing that since I was 9. I won't lie, everyone in my family has a very quick metabolism. Believe it or not, I was unhappy with being WAY too skinny and exercised to try to bulk up and look more normal.

                      How long have you been exercising? I know you said you've been on a keto diet for a month, but would you say you're physically fit? The more muscle you have in your body the more calories you burn naturally, so keep riding this plateau you're stuck on, you won't see the results next week but if you keep doing what you're doing in a year you're gonna look great.

                      [–]Stoli604 -1 points0 points ago

                      The calories burned by muscle are not that significant IMO. A year of building muscle optimally ( no fuckarounditis) will burn 250 more calories a day. Realistically? More likely 100, ie an apple, for a year of dedication. Still 25lbs of muscle is its own reward. Diet and cutting are east after that, but that's because of what you learn, not your marginally higher bmr.

                      [–]awesome_nards 0 points1 point ago

                      huh, thanks, I never actually knew the numbers on this.

                      [–]Stoli604 -2 points-1 points ago

                      Bullshit. You'd drop water weight of 5-10 lbs then stall, if anything.

                      [–]Psythik 0 points1 point ago

                      Nope. Still staying firm at 214. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

                      [–]Stoli604 0 points1 point ago

                      Do you log what you eat/calories? Link?

                      It was amazing. However, my tolerance went right back up the next day. I'm trying again this year. Haven't touched cannabis since August.

                      The "credit" you get is not automatically being treated like shit by every person you meet.

                      They all look much happier and fun to hangout with in their pre-fit pics. Sombody should parody a /r/gainit; Before: A lonely muscle dbag, "Everybody hated me because of me being fit", After: Fat guy having a blast at the beach "Now everyone wants to hang out with me :D because they don't feel insecure anymore"

                      Cause they're sad boobs :( Not in the way that they're bad boobs, but looking at them make you sad.

                      Just keep track and be accountable for what you eat, also if your not exerting naturally then join a gym.

                      [–]Illquitwhenimdead 2 points3 points ago

                      Exercise and diet dude. If you can get into a daily workout, where you work up a sweat and get your heart beating for 20 minutes (just 20 minutes), you will naturally want to improve your diet. When you're sweating pizza grease you'll know what I'm talking about, I've been there.

                      I smoke though, so I can't really give advice.

                        I'm currently down 10 pounds (in about a month and a half) of the 85 I'm trying to lose.

                        Most of the before and afters I saw this summer referenced myfitnesspal.com and still use it daily for their calorie intake. Other people have had luck with various other sites. I'm using MFP, but here's a list of sites to scope out:

                        My Fitness Pal - Plain and simple calorie counting website. Excellent food database, but the exercise portion seems a bit lacking.

                        Fitocracy - I pick things up, and put them back down! This site is heavy on the weights and bodybuilding. If you're getting close to the last 10-20 pounds you should be logging your workouts here. This is probably THE BEST exercise logging site. Unfortunately, you can't count calories here. It doesn't exist.

                        Spark People - It seems pretty close to MFP, but the database isn't as robust. All the same features and more reside on this site, but it comes off as a bit more cluttered. Livestrong - lance Armstrong's site. Has a decent food database and exercise plans. Seemed a bit over advertised to me.

                        Lets Move! - Michelle Obama's fitness website. It seems to link to a bunch of other government websites with all sorts of stuff. It seems convoluted to me.

                        There are several other sites out there, but these seem to be the bigger ones that seem (to me) to give good results. Figure out what works for you. And there's only one real secret to losing weight or getting fit: DON'T QUIT!

                        I just ask myself,"do I get myself hot?" if not, I cut out snacks, eat more fruits and veggies and less red meat. Maybe I go do some cardio. Both of my brothers are fat, part of it is their body type but a BIG part of it is all the bullshit fast food they eat. Hot pockets, panda express, McDonald's, burgers, french fries, Denny's. Why the fuck spend all that money on food when you can spend it on whiskey? Are you shitting every day? How much water do you drink a day? Drinking more water will help you slim down, get rid of excess shit in your gut and help bloating.
