You gained weight since your first post....

Come on, get your mind right.

diet diet diet.

seriously, supps give you a little push if you're on the edge = but if I've learned anything over the past 3 years - get your diet on point. Measure what you eat and you'll be surprised how much cals you're getting in.
As Professor Trac also preaches, get your macros right too, but you need to measure or at least have a damn good average to keep track.

i know i messed up guys but im gonna get it right again this time. i know how to lose the weight i was just lazy i guess. i was 250 year before and started training hard and reached my lowest of 182.5lbs but i maintained around 195 and then lost the zeal when my wife got sick and got out of control but im gonna do it again. i used to sweat everynight by playing football and running followed by light lifting somtimes as well as eating 2000 calories every day. this was my lifestyle until she got sick and the guy who i used to train with moved out of the building. in will do it i promise. from today im back to a healthy lifestyle but this time im looking to lift heavier and gain some mad muscle

Guys want to know if any of you all used Amino Acids or Creatine tablets?? If you did what were your results looking at using either one.

All the sits up in world will not show your abs. You need diet with cardio and weight training. Diet being number one, which means no flour, rice and sugar. Cut all soft drinks , fruit juices and beer out. Only water, no doubles, bread and roti ect.
Try for a month and you should see some changes.

[Rainman]

ZR that's incorrect. Why cut out flour and rice? I went from 205 to 155 in 6 months and I ate flour and rice daily.

Portion control is the key, a calorie is a calorie.

This will definitely result in weight loss, but it will also make you miserable and irritable being unable to have the foods you enjoy. A more realistic approach would be to reduce the amount of carbs you have with each meal instead of not having any at all, who in their right mind can even live this way for long? Eliminating sweetened drinks is a more realistic option than eliminating carbs altogether. Intermittent fasting, by skipping breakrast, or lunch, is also a healthy way to reduce your calorie intake.

Bro, sorry to say it, but at 325lbs, no amount of exercise will get rid of your moobs. You'll have to lose at least 75lbs, probably 100 (depending on your height) before the moobs begin to go away. You can't lose fat in only your chest or only your stomach, pushups will do nothing to help with this. To effectively, and permanently lose fat you'll need to control your diet. Gym will make you stronger, but will have minimal effect on fat loss. There's no shortcut, you MUST manage your calorie intake in order to meet your weight goals.

[shermantank]

^^^thanks for the real talk here bro

[INHUMAN]

Why is it that the first place fat usually settles is the last place it tends stubbornly go? Same concept, ur accumulation of fat deposits didn't happen overnight but during the course of your 30+ years....so once u dedicate urself towards small goals each yr, i guarantee u, ur moobw shall be replaced with a hunk of a chest....slowly but surely!

[Trini Hookah]

[music4ever]

Was 230 now 180lbs lowest I reach was 175lbs started may 2013 and ended september 2013

1st -strong mind ,determination,objective and discipline

2nd - had a persinal trainer 5days a week only did it to learn the excercise routine and also had a excercise buddy to push each other

3rd- no alcohol , kinda rice, no kind of flour ,no sugar period no sauces no highly seasoned meats and peas stay away from high starch food .no snacks onky ate peanuts n granola bars and watch ur calorie intake below 200 cal my diet was water steam veggies fresh salads at night with no taste try to stop all eating at 6pm onky eat chicken breast and fish

4th -cardio excercise do alot of push ups and leg raises I started walkin 28 floors on a building at a a beginning time of 30mins now my best times was 6mins I become obsessed I woke up I did 50 push ups 25 n 25 on work 25 n 25 com3 home 25 n 25 its a mind thing

I work 2jobs now so excercise is on a hold im maintaining it so far at 180 for 1yr straight d flabs is coming back but I eat healthy still cuz im not excercising dont have time while I was excercising I cheated once a month to confuse my diet and I ate 3 small meals every 4hrs
When I quit my 2nd job im goin back in training I like the excercise I like the look I hates vegies and fresh salad now I love it

I find my moobs went down when I did cardio and exercises like chest flys, and wide grip bench presses ( decline,incline,normal)

Chest flys and wide grip presses will only mask the moobs for a while. The muscles stretches out to the shoulders and flattens the chest a little But it won't get rid of them.

Like snatman said.... Overall weight loss. And strict diet.
