How one ATOT member changed his life

[Kishan]

I was addicted to this forum about a year ago. At the time, my life was going nowhere. I worked a menial job, received poor grades, but most importantly, my weight ballooned to 365 lbs as a 6'2 man. I felt that I had hit rock bottom and needed to change. To make a long story short (if you want to read the entire story, go here) I lost over 150 pounds in 14 months without any surgeries, magic pills, or whathaveyou. I plan on creating some sort of website to outline how exactly I did it (a central location for me to explain training/nutrition regiment, some of which was explained in the previous link) and am not too familiar with web site design. I was thinking of using something along the lines of template monster, but would like your take on this. The point of the web site is for me to:
1. Explain my story (motivation/mentality).
2. Detail my nutrition and training regiment (physical).
3. Post progress pics.
4. Offer consulting services (Probably for free since I genuinely want to help people.)

I'd like to add in google adsense, and wanted something slick like this, but am not sure if this will be suitable for all the text based content.

Thanks for all the help (and good memories over the years.)

[Glavinsolo]

I can sum it up.
If(calorieIntake<calorieUsage){
weight--;}
else{
weight++;}

...because on ATOT, everything else is secondary to getting sex and wanting to know who is having it. :roll:

"Hey, I won a Rhodes Scholarship!"
Wow, I heard that British girls are easy - you should have no trouble getting laid!

"Got a great job offer that pays $100K!"
Cool.. now you can buy a hot car and cell phone so you can get laid!

"Big promotion at work with a huge raise today from my new female boss!"
OMGHITITISSHEHOTPICS!

Yeah, if you're addicted to this forum do you really think coming back AT ALL is a good idea? I like your other idea though. You should implement it and leave this place for good to cary on with you life. I'm being serious, not sarcastic. I have an addictive personality so I understand you somewhat.

its all about the nookie man. Dont pretend its not. why do you want to be rhode scholar, have 100k job or get the promotion.....so you get higher status and can have access to hotter wimmenz.

\\ Also he certainly wasn't getting tail at 360 and I'm sure girls take notice of him now at 200. so its a valid question.

I'd definitely visit your site. I'm 5'10" @ 200lbs, and I want to lose the gut and manboobs, albeit they're small. I used to do a sh!tload of cycling when I was younger but it never seemed to hit the gut at all.
Regardless, I've dropped 30lbs since January by simply eating properly, and soon I'll be taking up regular exercise.
Mad props though 🙂

Thanks to everyone for their kind replies. To answer the looming questions, my social life is better than ever (😉), and only in an upward trend - my story would be too long to post here and was detailed a bit more in the link provided (pics are posted there and will be updated weekly.)

I firmly believe I have the ability to help people, which are my main reasons for starting this site. I'm just trying to figure out design and adsense to manage hosting/maintenance fees. The content is mostly created already and will be a simple copy and paste.

By the way, if anyone wants advice, feel free to contact me.

Way to get proactive man. Good job becoming happy with yourself. It's a good feeling. 🙂

Good job man. I am 6' @ 215lbs and my goal for the summer was ~190 and being able to run on the treadmill or elliptical for an (or ~) hour by the end of August. I am feeling the burn from my workout yesterday and decided to take the day off today. That is untill I saw your post. You've set a good example, I hope I can as well.

Move over Jared, we have a new king of weightloss.

Nice work ... I'm currently building myself a gym in one of my garages. I did weigh 225 lbs (5'9") a couple of months ago. I'm now 210 and plan on getting back to fighting trim around 175-180 lbs. I currently have a universal gym, someone donated a brand new treadmill, I have a bike trainer and I'm just looking for some free weights and I'm set 🙂 After overhauling the entire room, all I have left to do is finishing the drywall and painting.

Stories like yours help to inspire folks like me :thumbsup:
