Is there anyone here who successfully recovered from being morbidly obese ? I'm wondering if it's even possible
>>
>>41560425
One of my best friends did. He was 400 pounds and lost 50 pounds, got gastric bypass, and is now saving up for the skin removal surgery. That's one of the few ways to recover.

super obese aka smallfats

>>41560425
According to this picture, if you get fatter than morbidly obese, you aren't at risk of dying anymore.
>>
Yes

I gained it back years later and now want to get fit again and keep it off...
>>
>>41560425
20 fucking millions of americans!!
And they say sugar is not the culprit

Technically speaking, I was considered morbidly obese last year. 310lbs at 5'11, so I was sitting around 38-39bmi.

Still recovering, down to just obese
>>
>>41560550
How did you do it?

Whats your weight now?

Do you lift weights?
>>
>just barely overweight

I need to stop lurking and start lifting.
>>
>>41560556
Lots of depressed eating (Mom passed from cancer, gf left me, alcohol)

I'm 250 right now, started lifting a year ago. It's actually squat day (2pl8 for reps from literally zero a year ago. Couldnt even break parallel without the bar.)

It's a living hell that I try to struggle out of every day, at a 1200-1500 cal limit
>>
>>41560425
Currently recovering from morbidly obese. Doing weightlifting and diet to lower the weight. Honestly avoiding any fast food for a month and cooking healthy at home and drinking water more made me drop weight fast. 6' 2" 300 currently.
>>
>>41560425
at my fattest i had a BMI of 32. it's 25 rn i think
>>
>>41560425
It's not possible to successfully recover from morbid obesity. Once you become morbidly obese or even obese you're body starts destroying itself little by little.
>>
just adopt keto xDDDD

Didn't Jared from Subway do this?

>>41561148
yeah, the dude went from morbid obesity to getting into pants made for children
>>
>>41560425
Guy at my work was over 400lbs. He did weight watchers and got down to the low 300s, then started lifting and got down to 270lbs at 6'4". Still fat and loose skin, but a lot better off than before.
>>
>>41560425
went from 40 to 22 with just diet alone
thought they say nobody is "cured" until they've kept the weight off for 2 years, so I'll tell you in two years
>>

>BMI

come on /fit/....

I'm not even a regular here and I know BMI was a system devised by a mathematician with no input what so ever from anyone with health of fitness knowledge.
>>
>>41561364
Most people don't lift so it's a perfectly fine measurement for the majority of people as well as assessing a countries health.

Sorry to hear about your mom brah. Glad to hear you're getting healthier. Most people would kill to be able to lose the weight you've already lost but they don't have the willpower. You do. Keep it up. Looks like you're going to make it.
>>
I was 380lbs and now 210ish. Still dropping weight, goal is 180. I'm 6'0 tall.

Still fucking hate myself, I just don't look like that "pay for my healthcare" guy from FPH threads.

Started in October 2014 at 350lbs while 6ft tall. A year later started dating and got a gf. February 2016 I reached 220lbs and felt perfect. Here I am today at 315lbs. I've been single for a month and my ex (same girl from 10/15) tells me she is 8 weeks pregnant. Good news is that I'm 3 days in on my diet, 4th week on my PL routine, and I've done cardio everyday this month.

I went from just above the threshold for morbidly obese (BMI 36) to just a few pounds away from normal BMI (BMI 26). It's not that impressive numbers-wise and I don't look that much better but I feel a lot better (part of that is eating and sleeping better) and have a much easier time participating in sports and shit which was my main goal.
>>
>>41562040
this my BMI is 24, but so is my BF%

I was 343 lbs at my worst about 2.5 years ago. Now I'm finally down to 190, wanna get down to 185. I pull a .75/1.5/2/2.5 right after only getting back into the gym last June.

Last year I was 317lb @6 foot tall
I dieted hard and dropped to 285 pretty fast. But I started to stall in weight loss and got off track. Went back back on a diet at the beginning of the year. I was trying too hard last year trying to stay under 1500. I increased my diet to 1800 and have been staying with in my limit without feeling like I am depriving/starving myself. I am down to 262lb. For a total of 55lb so far. I am losing about 1.5-2lb a week.

I have two years before I graduate. My goal is to get to 180lb by graduation. My plan is to continue at 1800 a day until I am 200lb, which should happen around April of next year. At which point I am going to increase my calories to 1900 until I am at 190 and then 2000 until I get to 180. I want to slowly work my way back to a normal diet.
>>
>>41562146
Hey brother, congrats on taking the first steps.

I suggest increasing your calories a little bit more. 1600kcal is tough and for a guy your size it may be too much to cut all at once. Have you lost anything in these first two weeks?

Also let us know when you can finally find your penis. That is going to be such a glorious day for you.

I'm nearly obese. 165 lb at 5'2". I am having issues with exhaustion and pain my feet from my weight. My mom just lost 90 lb after being obese my whole life and has inspired me to get healthy too.

I went from morbidly obese to obese. Next step is overweight!
>>
My BMI has been like 38 in the past, but the nutritionist (not my idea) said I had an abnormal amount of muscle mass for someone that doesn't work out, so I didn't look as bad as you'd expect. To give you an idea of how strong I was as a kid, I'd pick up my classmates and run up steep slopes when I was like 12.
>>
Lost 10 pts of bmi in a year, though I only tried to lose weight for half of it.
>>
>>41560425
1.67m here, was 87kg last July and now 72kg - 2kg away from optimal BMI. Can't wait.

not sure if it is considered morbidly obese but when I was 15 I was 250 pounds at 5'7. I have lost 100 pounds in the course of 4 months back then through starvation and ended up skinnyfat, now I've bulked to 184 and am going to cut now using PSMF. I am 19 btw but most people I know don't recognize me anymore and that includes my teachers from general school and highschool. Surprisingly there is not a lot of stretched skin, only white marks on a few places.

>>41560990
Nonsense. It only seems that way because the medically accepted weight loss method is horribly inefficient. Like most things, even obesity can be overcome by fasting of some sort.

>>41561567
No. It's NOT perfectly fine. It totally alienates non-white people who have higher muscle mass and larger/heavier skeletal structure.
>>
>>41560556
I was also morbidly obese. Went from 148 kg to 100 in about a year and couple of months. I used an indoor bike and cycled almost every day for about an hour, relatively high resistance, and kept a food journal with calorie counting. Coulda lost the weight faster but I like drinking and properly enjoying holiday food so I didn't count calories at birthday parties and during the holidays with my family. My dream was to start climbing and I'm finally able to climb(although it's hard as fuck at 100 kg) so I'm livng the dream and that hobby will probably stop me from rebounding back to a fucking hambeast

how did u have such little loose skin ???

>>41560425
I used to barely be in the morbidly obese range in February this year. Now barely over the obese line, and according to my graph I should be optimal weight by the end of the year.

sugar is just carbs. The amount you put in your mouth matters

To people in the overweight range? Anon, it's mostly superobese people that are disabled xD
