I'm 6'4" and about 333 pounds right now. I went the doctor last week. My blood pressure was 165/101. I was promptly put on blood pressure medication. I'm only 30 years old!
I have always been big. When I got out of high school, I was probably 260 or so. When I got out of Marine Corps boot camp, I was probably down to 212. While in the Marine Corps, I was probably around 225-230 most of the time.
My wife and I are expecting our first baby in July. Needless to say, I have drastically changed my eating habits the past week and I really don't have any urges to eat anything 'bad'. We have even gone to Dairy Queen twice to appease my wife's cravings and I haven't eaten anything from there.
I can't start to work out until my pressure gets down. I know HOW to lose the weight since I had to lose about 30 pounds even to get into the Marine Corps back in '90. I just need to do it.
Sometimes you just need some extra motivation to stop shoving pizza in your face and to get your head out of your ass.
Here is my normal daily diet now:
Breakfast: Wheaties Energy Crunch cereal. Yummy. (I just can't stop eating cereal. At least eat something halfway healthy)
Lunch: Meal replacement or sandwich with fruit.
Dinner: Sometimes pasta(not a lot) or maybe some sort of meat product. Chicken/pork chops/red meat.
Snacks: Bananas/Grapes/Apples any kind of fruit really. Oh, and those no sugar added fudge pops at night. No added sugar and only 1 gram of fat for 2 bars.
