The way I used to look a few years ago.

Same cat in my lap before my stomach touched that steering wheel.

My drinking journey to my morbid obesity.

a few years later

After a REALLY bad break up with "that one and true love" shortly after turning 21. I began drinking heavily, without being medicated for that bi-polar crap. And what else is open at 2 am when all the drinking is done, but fatty food delivery services.

Last photo before critical mass

This is the last photo that was taken of me before I maxed out at 350 pounds. I obviously hid from any camera since then.

I killed myself

Fed up with life, I saw no other direction and I realized I was a worthless husk, a waste of life. I'm not smart, I have no self confidence, I am self defeating and there is no changing back from it, "good luck drunk, it runs in the family" I decided to commit suicide........ I grabbed all the leftover oxycoton I had from a previous back injury and wisdom tooth removal, grabbed a bunch of Four Lokos and vodka. I sat down and took it all in while playing TF2 (back when it was popular) I'm pretty sure I spoke my last words during a match and no one noticed.

Felt great

Mom found me slumped over in my seat and had to tell the medics they will need more people to carry me. Doctors told me I technically died for about a minute and as half. AND BY THE WAY. For you religious people, there is nothing that happens when you die! Picture that lost time when you go to sleep and wake up and you can't remember it. That's it.

recovery

I somehow paralyzed my left shoulder with the combination of the opioids and the position I was found slumped over in. After some time in THAT hospital I went to physical therapy and after a few months I regained control. Some months after that I somehow got a DUI while sitting in my car in my own driveway. Some ruckus occurred and I went to jail for a couple days. I swore after that I was done with alcohol.

That damn treadmill/ elliptical burns my nips

I'd say this was about 5 months after I lost he first 30 pounds just walking. (WALK EVERYWHERE WHEN YOU HAVE THE CHANCE)

gotta say that lighting makes it look better

A selfie. Blow me.

Footsies

A little bit of yo-yoing later, this is my current standings.

Goooooooooooooooo

I have a long way to go to recover from what I did to my body. But god damn it walk with me. Walk, that's all it takes to get started.

FP edit: Neato gang! Never been here before. Send information about Boston, MA. I plan to move up there in the future. Or boobs, boobs are nice. Man, I need to get back in the dating world.

Very motivational @op. Take your upvote, and a cheer

My husband gained weight since we started dating, I still love him a whole bunch but I miss laying my head on his leg while he drives.

I'd say you were non responsive for a minute but not dead. Dead dead is when you can't be revived. You even recovered without brain damage.

I'm currently a little more than you in the beach-babe photo. Other than calorie counting, what sort of diet were you eating? Great work @OP

I mean during your workout phase, of course. I'm quite familiar with the food and drinks that are making me fatter.

Myfitnesspal plus Fitbit has done wonders for me. I'm down 30lbs myself.

Agree with the death thing. 1 out of the 7 times I ODcoded, had to be paddled back to life and I didnt experience anything grand.

This is how you post a lost/found myself and awesome weight loss story folks. From the readers viewpoint this was perfect. Good on ya man!

Im not a believer but maybe you didnt experience anything after death because it was suicide? Isn't that against some rule or something?

9 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 1

Even so, you would expect some event. A slow drift down the River Styx, perhaps. Although, on second thought. Maybe nothingness is the hell.

So true.. I got drunk, jumped in a freezing river after hallucinating I was drowning. Life is good when vices no longer control you.

I'm glad you survived. I hope things have righted themselves up and you never ever ever ever get to that point again.

(1) You know, congrats and all, but the snide "there's nothing but blackness" comment... if a religious person said they saw heaven in that

9 years ago | Likes 11 Dislikes 4

(2) situation, which means that 'it's totally real, so take that'. You'd probably think, "hmph, that's condescending and dismissive".

9 years ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 3

Yeah, but like, it's not gonna change anyone's mind. I don't believe in heaven any more or less because of his experience.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Oh it's not that, its the snide condescension. His exp. being stated to invalidate the beliefs of others is douchey just on principal

You're right about that.

Yeah I mean, believe or don't believe but when you tell others to feel 1 way or the other you're just as bad as the type you complain about

Woah wait hold on. So you experienced death? Let's talk about that some more.

Don't know what else to explain, went the pill alcohol way, usual dream then nothin, and it was great.

I didn't do it on purpose persay, but involved similar chems. Felt amazing for a moment, then nothing. Like a system reboot.

Your body should've released DMT shouldn't it? Or did that get all fucked up with the pills and alcohol?

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

The opiates could have possibly suppressed the secretion of DMT because the body didn't know it was dying or in pain

Keep at it. I died 4 times. Agree, nothingness. Different story, different poison,etc. Insert motivation here. Good luck.

Idk my parents refuse to tell me how many times i died. But i know it was at least 3. I was septic from a leg injury. Nothing. Its all empty

I don't consider it multiple deaths. I think of it as 4 failed assassination attempts. You bad ass you

I failed 3 times. Decided it's time I give up the assassin life. Might try to be my own life coach instead.
