I’ll be honest with you, 136kg is overkill. You could be facing serious health problems in the future. I can identify your problems if you post up how an average day (in eating and activity) looks like. I personally know overweight active individuals who are borderline diabetic and suffer from high blood pressure. The medications for those are enough to ruin your life due to their severe side effects.

Your weight fluctuates because it’s “weight-gain”. People always assume that those fluctuations are fat, while in reality they are due to water retention. Fat takes weeks if not months to accumulate, while weight (mostly water weight) takes days to rise.

The only solution is to adapt to a moderate lifestyle with moderate eating habits and activities and concentrate more on losing the fat.

EVERYONE: FAT-LOSS IS PERMANENT, WEIGHT-LOSS IS TEMPORARY :)

@Reno H., any advice you need please feel free to ask :D

@Dbsustan and Pyyth4 Thanks guys! Pyyth4, God willing you will lose the fat! Wait and see my friend :).

@q8link, Masha’Allah! Bro, you must be BIG! How lean are you?

Please, anabolic steroids are not your one-stop solution to muscle gains! Anabolic steroids are synthetic hormones with severe side effects if not used appropriately.
Before I begin preaching about drug-use I need to clarify where I stand in regards to this: I’m not with it or against it.
Anabolic steroids, when used appropriately can be of benefit when an individual has spent years upon years of building a foundation on both his physical structure and eating habits. Unfortunately, that is not the case in Kuwait.
God knows I’ve sat with 18-22 year olds who have taken mind-boggling dosages (a month after they have joined a gym) that ruined their futures. Some were successfully treated, others were not. A few had kidney and/or liver failure.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not crucifying anabolic steroids. I’m a man who believes in science, and what science has presented to me is that anabolic steroids are like any drug out there: beneficial in moderation and dangerous when pushed to extremes.

dude you are really inspiring me to lose weight! :p

I was 140kg when I was 20 years old, I lost the same exact weight (60kg) but it took me about 5 months, still alot of weight in a very short time, don’t you think?

My weight has always yo’yo’d for a good ten years.

However, I am 31 years old now and 136kg and its scary. I am big but not flabby, the weight is distributed evenly all over my body. I have played rugby all my life, I play basketball, I play football, – I am a very athletic person in terms of those sports, I am fast for my size, I hate the gym though – and I hate diets – I do not like to be restricted and do not like to be told what to eat. But I fully understand that that is not an excuse, I fully understand that I must not wait for help. I need to make a decision about this.

My only problem is, if I do lose the weight (and I know I can as I have done it in the past) how do I maintain that suitable weight for me? I think it is way harder to maintain the right weight than to actually lose those extra pounds, am I right in saying this? Like I said, I am an athletic person but I miscalculate healthy living. Any advice?

Thanks in advance,

Contact me via email buddy. We’ll arrange a meet if you want to step it up :)

However, thank you for this well-written post. I personally enjoyed reading it.

My diet consist of 6 to 5 meals a day. Morning:( Egg whites, oats and 2 scoops of whey protein) Snack at 10:00am(Turkey/Tuna with some carbs) Lunch: (mostly chicken breasts mafyo7, brown rice and a salad). After working out, 2 scoops of protein followed by egg whites after 2 hours. At last, Dinner white meats. I do cheat sometimes between meals :P fruits or snickers :P

Yes, I do remember you spotting me with the DB Incline presses. Thank you again for that spot, I really needed it ;).

Secondly, the story above was the start of my journey, which means I didn’t know anything about health or fitness; I just did what common sense told me. I have a body type that gains and loses fat easily, so yes I lost 60kg in 3 months.

I’d like to clarify that the methods used in my post are WRONG. I did it out of common sense and not knowledge. Losing that amount of weight in such a short time has its health implications and I completely refrain from anyone trying it.

Thank you for your kind words and for that much needed spot ;)

145 to 85? You literally dropped a human being! Masha’Allah good for you :)
Don’t concentrate on weight. Try to focus on recomposition (fat to muscle ratio) and the mirror. The mirror is better at criticizing the way you look as opposed to the scale.
You’ll get those washboard abs Ensha’Allah ;)
