Swimmers body. I can't even fathom "fat."

Motion gaming helped me get my weight down and will continue to keep it down as long as I stick with it.

I'm 1.85m and weighed around 120 kg for a large part of my life. I now weigh 92 kg and could still stand to lose another 5 or so.

I was always fairly thin in high school, sitting at around 80 kg when I graduated. Between a very poor diet and a lot of beer and liquor I swelled up to 115-120 and stayed there for most of my 20's and part of my 30's.

Finally got sick of it in December 2012 and cut out all alcohol and fixed up my diet. Lost 10 or so kg through that and then added in a steady regiment of Xbox Kinect fitness programs in April 2013 to get myself down to from there (plus some Wii U ones when I bought the machine in September 2013). I started with the Your Shape games and moved on to the more demanding Adidas and Nike ones after my body was ready for the harder work. I now rotate between several programs depending on what I feel like to maintain muscle mass and weight.

- Your Shape Fitness Evolved (X360)
- Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012 (X360)
- Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2013 (Wii U)
- Adidas miCoach (X360)
- Nike+ Kinect Training (X360) - this one is tough
- Wii Fit U (Wii U)

It was a great feeling giving away all of my "fat" clothes and I don't intend to ever get to a point where I need to re-buy them again.

Interesting question and amusing replies. I don't understand why some of you felt the need to hurl insults though? I mean, calling people "fat fucks" and the like... I just think it makes you look like a massive cunt, considering no one has been hurling insults at random.

The jibes at Americans and the distortion of American culture is actually really amusing, and I would advise those across the pond to not believe everything that people (especially those who dislike America) say. Not everything is true and to believe everything you read or are hear by word of mouth will turn you into ignorant sheep. Fight ignorance.

As for the actual question, I love swimming and swimming is considered a great exercise that works out the entire body, so those looking to lose weight might wanna check it out! But in the cold winter months when pools aren't readily accessible (unless you go to an indoor pool, of course) I love to take walks with my nephews. It is good to instill the idea of keeping active in children so that they don't become accustomed to being stationary throughout the day.

well you're new here so you wouldnt know this, but a lot of the comments in this thread (including mine) were said in jest, after a while you will get used to these members posting styles. not that i am trying to justify myself or others, honestly i couldn't care less, but just letting you know, dont take things on here way to personally or seriously.

i comment like that could get you banned btw, since it is directed at users who posted in the thread. editing it out would be preferable.

I'm about 205-210 lbs right now and if I got down to much below 200 I'd be a bean pole again. Tightening up my waist a tiny bit would be good but I don't really need to lose much actual weight.



I cannot believe you guys drink much soda anyways as it is highly correlated with obesity. Water, coffee, booze and juice is what you need.

Also, I do not think one American finds the jokes about obesity funny. Many people are slim and in great shape here. Many are really fat too, it varies depending on the state and city. And from what I have seen, all Western countries are getting more obese from Canada, Australia and even Europe. One thing that differentiates America from most of the world is our food is really cheap compared to other countries. Making it cheap and easy to over indulge.



Not really, cause I never got skinny in the first place...
