I'm down to 542 pounds!!

i guess all that walking around my block is finally paying off! lol. i have alot more energy now, and i'm even able to get around my house without the walker. which is awesome. it wasn't all that long ago that i was just stuck in bed. now i am inching my way back to the land of the living again. oh, and it's official: the FatMan is a poet now! and my masterpiece isn't even about food! lol. well, i mean that i ended up writing a poem (my first one) about this angry dude i used to know in high school that ended up killing himself. and he was always the one everybody wanted to be more like! what a crazy world. so if you want to look at the poem, i posted it over on the poetry section here (sorry, i still don't know how to do those links). i'd really like to find out what some of you think of my writing. so thanks for taking the time. i get thinner with every new post here, plus i even wrote a poem. now that's a first. so i guess this place is really helping me to get my lazy ass in motion. thanks again for all the awesome support!!

 

Right on dude, keep it up!!

 

hey thanks! i'm glad the combo of diet and exercise is really starting to melt off those stubborn pounds. it was a lot slower at first. but i think i finally hit my stride...

 

hey congrats, man! Keep it up!

 

hey thanks! i'm gonna give it my best shot! and i promise to let everybody know how i'm doing.

 

Hey, that´s awesome!

 

thanks alot! i'm glad i'm not the only one happy about it! lol.

 

yay for dieting.

 

I smell gimmick.

 

That's fucked up. fatman25 is doing what he feels necessary to better himself. He's not selling anything or plugging any specifc diet or nothin. just his own personal testament.

I for one hope he keeps up the good work!

 

good job man... keep up the good work.... next thing you know you'll be skin and bones

 

even if FatMan was a gimmick, thats his own problem. we went over that when FatMan first started to post on HF. and i don't believe he's a gimmick at all. either way, this is the internet, who gives a shit.

anywho...

thats great. keep it up man. you'll make your goal.

 

nope. just being honest about myself. sorry if that bothers you (if it does).

 

GOOD for you! Remember to take it one day at a time, and always feel good about your goals, this is very important, and don't let anyone discourage you. Do it for yourself..You seem really happy and positive and motivated..keep up the good work!

 

ignore him. he's wrapped up in the American Idol craze.

 

Hello again Death

 

thanks for the support, man! and it looks like i'm gonna make my goal alot quicker than i thought! i never thought i'd be able to make so much progress this soon....

 

I am so happy for you

 

hey thanks! yeah, i am keeping a positive attitude. i'm not gonna let anything stop me from reaching my goal. i have to do this for my health.
