- This is the answer to the question viewiers have been asking me for some time. I am somewhat embarassed and more than a little uncomfortable talking about this topic, but I feel like I'm disapointing people if I don't respond. So here it is.
![[Full Episode] MasterChef Junior Thailand มาสเตอร์เชฟ จูเนียร์ ประเทศไทย Season 3 Episode 10](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/8kldrPPsDZs/mqdefault.jpg)
This video is 3yrs old and having watched the video you put out a few days ago I can see that you've KEPT the weight off. This is where I've always failed. I'm in my late 50s and also "pre-diabetic" This video has motivated me sir...Thank you.
Good luck to you!
Motivated me too , I’m trying to eat more healthy
Only 1% can keep it off like he did. Consider the meds that are out or even gastric sleeve.
This was a very kindly and generous thing to do, thank you for opening up and sharing.
bunnystuff2005 You’re so welcome!
This is one of those few times when I can tell a person that I am not sorry for their loss!
Good work, Marine!
Thank you!
"Being hungry sucks!" I hear you man.
Simple…big healthy breakfast and lunch with no dinner.
@@johnnybbgunner2136what about second breakfast?
Well done, Marine. This video is almost five years old now and hope you've been able to maintain your healthy slimness. - I am a little older (73) now and am on the same journey having lost 44 pounds in the last 90 days by reducing calories to 1,800 a day with a maximum of 20 carbs a day. From 229 to 185 so far, works for me! I don't feel like I am on a diet, it has now become a permanent change in lifestyle. - Semper Fi Brother
Semper Fi Ken. Best of luck!
WOW! you look 20 years younger...good job Mr. Funk.
Thank you!
I've been a subscriber for a while, but I only just came across this video.
I trust that you will take it as a compliment when I say this... I have seen several of your older videos pre weight loss, and I didn't realize you were the same person.
More impressive than the actual weight loss is that you have kept it off four years later. As anyone who has lost a decent amount of weight knows, losing it is the easy part - keeping it off is the real test.
Thank you! I do indeed take that as a compliment.
Wow...this may be the first truly honest weight loss explanation I've heard. I have struggled with weight most of my adult life. I used to be very active and ate a lot to maintain. I then got into law enforcement and became sedentary but still ate the same. I need to lose about 100lbs. I've been trying for some time now but it's always down 30 up 40. I do obsess over the number on the scale. You have changed my thinking on this and I am going to make this happen...hrfunk style. Thank you for making this video and for the inspiration sir.
You're welcome! Good luck, and stay safe!
How are you two years later?
Would love to know how you're doing 4 years later?
Good on you HR, you look great. I'm on a simular path at 52. Calorie reduction and moderate workouts, January is my goal to drop 50lbs.
Semper Fi.
Good luck!
Howd you do?
How are you two years later?
Good job brother. Love your videos.
Thank you!
You figured it out, you don’t diet, you make a life style change. You have to change your life style and how you do things, and stick to that. Learned that long a go. Best of luck, God Bless Texas 🤙🏼❤️🇺🇸🤠
Without question one of the best videos I've seen on TH-cam irrespective of subject. As someone in your age bracket, this is one of the most practical narratives I've seen on weight loss. Didn't expect to see it on a 2A subject channel, but it speaks for itself. Continue as you were - stay the course - you are an inspiration to others. I'm 6'1, currently 280, former football lineman, targeting to 220. Semper Fi - thank you for your service! Your other videos are exemplary as well.
Thank you Todd, and good luck. Check back in from time to time and let me know how it’s going.
what a genuinely nice, forthright guy. The world needs more people like you, HR.
Looking great in your old Marine Corps uniform. Thanks for the inspiration!
PipeLawyer You’re welcome and good luck!
You’re an awesome person, thanks for your service
Thank you for the weight loss info.I two have had a problem sence I was a child. I look up to you in many ways.
Thank you for your honesty THANK YOU for your SERVICE. Thank you for being a regular Guy.
GOD BLESS you and your FAMILY.
You are more than welcome. Take care and God bless you and your family as well.
Nothing to feel silly about, hrfunk. As a matter of fact it takes a brave man to look at himself in the mirror and say this is the first day of my life. I commend you in staying fit, and of good health, sir.
82 Luft Thank you!
You have inspired me to do what you have done and yes I like beer too. Thanks for that kick in the butt I needed.
You’re welcome. Good luck!
Great job, you are looking fine, I went through similar issues at 60, dropped 55lbs and started walking and cycling 3days a week, life is good! It is my new normal!
Congratulations, looking great. Cracking up on the coffee comment! Snacks in between meals is the killer for me. Amazing transformation for such a short period of time.
Wow! You look so much leaner and congratulations on overcoming that weight! I got out of the Marines almost a year ago and packed on the pounds, my heaviest weight which was 242lbs, I was not happy with myself. Since missing being in the military so I started on my path to lose weight to enlist in the Army which I am closer to making tape now I weigh 220lbs. Things that helped diet wise was sticking to foods that are closest to its natural form, have fruits, vegetables, salads. Run til I burn 1K calories on my cardio days, at minimum burn 700 calories through HIT workout or on a rest days go on a 6 mile walk. Finding the discipline and motivation to stay consistent for me was pretty much self indoctrination of surrounding myself with things that resemble what I want to achieve and listen to people on podcasts that have achieved their goals, how they dealt with the struggles, what they have learned, and how joyful they are to achieve those goals. All of that created my laser focus to pursue the goals I want to acquire.
Good for you. Best of luck and Semper Fi!
Your humility is contagious. You're a gentlemen, a scholar and an inspiration. #congrats
Thank you!
It's been a pleasure following you the past few months. As a former Marine myself, I've always prided on being part of an organization that has always set a high standards for physical and mental grit. Eating healthy, limiting sugar and seed oil is the best advice I've received.
I’ve lost a little over 30 lbs since January. Like you I just cut calories. Beer? Love it. Can’t drink it now. If I cheat once in awhile it’s no big deal. I’m feeling much better and I actually do have more energy. I’ve adopted a new motto, “hunger is my friend”. I’m 72 now and find EVERYTHING is more difficult. Keep up the great videos my friend. Thanks for the info and sharing your personal story.
Inspirational. Thank you for this. I think I’ve over complicated the process, this was great. Thanks and God bless. Love this channel!
Thank you!
You look great! Good on you! I did the same thing too. My health was my reason. And also the same about people dying around me as well!
My blood pressure and count is normal now. And this was through keto. No sugar low Carbs. Plus intermittent fasting.
Thanks Ramon. It sounds like you also did a great job!
I am so glad you found success. One of the hardest things about dietary changes/losing weight is the mental fortitude to keep going. You are absolutely right, it is a lifestyle change. Just starting my journey for the third time and will find success. Congrats.
Well done! Agreed. One note for those losing weight, only in America can a protein bar with 35 grams of sugar and carbs be considered healthy. Learn from those who were successful. For me it was 7 words in priority order; Find Motivation, Eat Right, Eat Less Often. 7+1 -> Exercise.
Thanks for making this video! I'm on a weight loss journey myself! You're a nice guy!
Thank you. Good luck!
Congratulations on your weight loss achievement. You hit all the points I needed to hear. I'm 55 and I need to do the same. Job well done sir! Semper Fi. (USMC 81 - 06)

HR, I had no idea looking at your recent videos that you struggled with weight. I'm currently 63, 5'10" 257 lbs, mostly muscle, but coukd loose 30 lbs. My bloodwork shows that I have metabolic syndrome (insulin resistance) and could lose 30 pounds.
You and I have a LOT in common. Thanks for the inspiration. I'm so glad that i have found your channel. 😊
So am I. Best of luck Ed!
"Ach du lieber, mein freund"! As a subscriber, this is my second comment to one of your videos. Wonderful video here!! You look like a million bucks (not does!)! My story. Years ago I went from 265lbs down to 200lbs in about a year (I was about 5ft 11 1/2" tall or so). A doctor I used to have swore at me & said he'd be looking for me in the obituaries! I was pre-diabetic. My wife's mother went blind because of being diabetic. My diet success was from eating 3 moderate meals a day, NO second helpings & NO snacking (almost!), & using our exercycle every day for 5 miles a day. That was hard for me to keep as I "lived to eat"! But with my wife's help, I made the weight loss. I am 78 now & "only" borderline" diabetic but have good eyesight. I don't pay too much attention to my diet, but I am about 210lbs now. My wife carefully watches the kinds of foods & drinks I have & have regular doctor checkups. Also, when I was 13 years old, I was 5ft 11 1/2" & 183lbs. I have to admit though that where "you go in", I "go out"!!! Also too, wish I had a "flat top" haircut like yours! I don't have enough!!! Don't forget, Jesus is waiting patiently for you.
Hey man I would like to thank you very, very much for making this video. You gave me hope to lose weight in a realistic way. Thanks again my friend.
albert wescombe You’re welcome! Good luck.
Excellent job! You look great and should be proud of yourself.
Thank you!
Outstanding video! Fitness improves so many areas of one's life. You're right on the money concerning motivation, and the basics of weight loss: calorie intake vs. activity level. As a USATF certified coach, and Fitness Advisor at my former LE agency, IMHO your video is the absolute truth. Bravo!!!
just had this video pop up in my recommended for some reason.Glad you made the choice for your health sir. loved the fact that you could once again get into that uniform .Semper Fi Marine.you actually gave me motivation to try also to lose some,gonna be 50 in december ,gotta try something
Semper Fi! and best of luck to you.
Brilliant achievement hrfunk, just done the same thing myself over the last few months and like yourself, I could not care less what I weigh, just getting back in shape. I also agree that one does not want to do too much exercise when you reach our age, just enough to keep sharp. I also do press ups every morning and 5 minutes of weights. I actually lost quite a lot of weight by splitting wood and a bit of running. However I really hate running so my solution might amuse you! I have 100 acres of woods so I invested in a duelling tree and 20 AR500 10 inch gongs and set them up on swinging mountings over a short 1 mile course which rises 120 feet in altitude through the woods. Every other day I run with my Buckmark .22 carbine (we are only allowed semi-autos in .22 over here) on a 'run and shoot' sprint between targets which I engage at 25 yards. Let me tell you it is an extremely good way to gauge fitness because you can see your 'recovery time' between targets reducing week by week and it makes getting in shape fun! Plus it really improves your snap shooting ability when hunting.
That is the greatest fitness/running program I've ever heard of in my life. If I ever make it back to England (a distinct possibility since my family and I have visited there three times in the last 5 years), I want to look you up an go for a run! I'll even pay for the ammunition!
You will be very welcome!
Thank you!
Well done! WoW! You look almost ten years younger.
I skip Breakfast, but still drink coffee. Lunch I have 2 hard boiled eggs on toast. Regular full Dinner. When I eat at a restaurant, I bring half home for leftovers. For the eggs, I use a $10.00 egg steamer from Amazon.
Hey, hrfunk!
Today is Aug 29th, 2017 and I have no idea how I got to your video but...I hit the thumbs up and subscribed after watching this video. I'm 50 now and I'm 261 pounds in a 6'-1" frame...I was in the military and I'm a Land Surveyor so I've been moving my body every day for most of my life.
Nowadays I've been preparing to go back to my yesteryears fit condition and I needed a boost...Thanks man for being that boost that I needed.
My respects and Semper Fi!
Thank you! Good luck and let me know if I can help in any way!
Sounds like you unknowingly had an intermittent fasting regiment. Great Job! I went from 253 lbs to 170 lbs. Eating low fat is not healthy though. Saturated fat is necessary for hormone production and brain health.
Well done.. I have found that I only need 2 meals a day now that I'm over 50...
Thank you!
Congratulations on your lifestyle change.
I too, struggled with my weight since I was a kid.
Went from 200lbs down to 145lbs my Sophomore summer.
I retired in 2009 and stayed around 240-250lbs until I bought a two-story house and my knees hurt when going up and down the stairs.
I dropped down to 200lbs and fluctuate between 180-210lbs.
After over being on 12 diets, dieting should be lowering carbs and by weeks-months until your goal is reached. Last year, it took 3 weeks to drop 3 pounds to 198.
Carbs are what causes hunger pains.
Congratulations, and especially on maintaining the progress. My motivation was being the first male in my family to live past the age of 45 in 3 generations. At age 39 I got into the best shape of my life. At 5'6" I was benching 235 pounds while weighing 165, but did not maintain. Later, at age 48 I needed a stent in my heart anyway. Exercised again after that, slowed down, and then hit it hard. Got in even BETTER shape at 54, jogging 4 miles 3 times a week, lifting weights 3 alternating days, but not to the same level of strength. However, for the first time in my life I was able to see my abs. I was not ripped in any way (in my torso) but I could see the lines of my abs, and never saw that before in my life. That took an incredible amount of dedication to reach, and I only wanted to see if I could get there. Then in 2020 everything (society) shut down. I got lazy again, and now ready to get back at it, but at a more realistic level. I also ate more "right" during those times too. Gotta get back to that too. I appreciate the motivation and hearing how you achieved your success. Thank you for sharing.
Great job! We're close to the same age (I have a year or two on you) and it's a daily struggle.
Good for you , now that your living healthier you can make more videos for all of us , thanks
One of many the things we gain from Military Service is disciple.
Excellent video.
I am going to follow your advice.
Much appreciated.
Finally a video that makes sense lol I am 70 and on the road to losing 100 pounds. Good job on your weigh loss and all the good advice.
Thanks, best of luck to you!
I've been on a similar journey and found your video inspiring.
Thanks for the beer tip I'm pretty sure that's my problem with loosing weight
I don't know why I am just now seeing this but I can relate! Thank you for your Service to this Country and your Service for your Community!!!
Great job Chief. You look great! I'm 67 years old and dropped about the same amount of weight 3 years ago.I'm keeping it off and feel great. I'm sure you can feel the difference. You should be very proud of yourself.
Thank you!
Great job. Great video. You can do anything you make up your mind to do. I have lost 43 pounds in the last 7 months. Not easy but worth the effort.
Good for you! Great job!
I’ve been on a journey to lose weight myself. I destroyed my knee and was assigned to work a desk and over the course of 10 years I gained about 250 lbs. Over the last three years I’ve lost 200 of those lbs and am working on the last 50. I did exactly what you did. No breakfast, a turkey or ham sandwich every day for lunch, and 1000 calories for dinner. It works.
Yep. It's not fun, but it works. Congratulation!
Well the education your giving me in these gun videos has been great. But now this one, I have lost 70lb and took a break. Had my knee replaced, they would not do the surgery until I lost weight. Now I'm back working on it, yes its work and a pain in the ass. I have 70lb to go and I'm committed to get there. 63 years old always been fat.
At 230-40 I'll be in my 30s weight and I'll be happy. When I quit working I just slowly gained and gained. Had a very physical job and retired very early.
So the structure is very real and I'm picking up an old hobby of shooting. The world has changed and regret selling all my firearms long ago.
Thanks for sharing part of your life.
You're welcome. Best of luck to you Frank.
Thank you for this video. I had just watched your videos on concealment and saw this one in the margin. Clicked on it and your idea of not watching the scale really struck me because that is what I'm guilty of. Similar medical issues as yourself. Retired last February, 6'6" and 300 lbs. Gives me hope to succeed. By the way the other videos I watched were great too! Love you instructing approach. Southern Ohio out.
Congratulations on your retirement Tommy. Best of luck to you!
Good video!! I watched your recent shotgun video and said to myself, that is not the same guy I worked for! I looked through your videos and saw this. GREAT JOB CHIEF!!!
ruggeri5054 Same guy, just a little less of him. Thanks Jon! Take care.
I don’t care... I like coffee. Perfect.
Good job! I lost 40 pounds over 1 1/2 years, but I couldn't have done it without a reason. Mine was different than yours, but I learned it had to be MY reason, not my wife's, or anyone elses.
I am a retired Medical Engineer, but more important to me was that I was about to lose my class III flight medical as I am also a Private Pilot. The thought of losing my freedom to fly among the clouds again, well, it was just too much for me to accept. I put myself on a diet, and it worked. Eating less was difficult for the first 2 weeks. By then, my body didn't need the amount of food, I had become use to. Just kept everything going, and looking back, it really wasn't that difficult.
Have a STRONG reason, and keep it up. After those 2 weeks, your body requires less to survive, and it became quite easy to keep with the plan.
I came down from 200lbs to 160. All is well, and I am now regulated and really rarely even feel hungry anymore. Best to you as well.
DS
Good job Dennis! I'm glad you're still flying!
Good journey and discipline as outstanding job...Good stuff...
Thank you!
God bless you it is hard walking around hungry
This is just the most simple, logical and practical approach I ever heard. I did the exact same thing. I'm 6'6" and clocked in at 285 a couple years ago. Basically reduced calorie intake/intermittent fast. It ain't rocket science. I competed in judo for many years and ran long distance. Last year at 46 I had to have both my hips replaced. I just can't do what I used to but on top of intermittent fast/ calorie reduction I try to walk 5 miles a day. Down almost to my fighting weight of 100 kilos. I think if people just looked at it this way no one would have weight issues. Basically you just got to use more calories than you consume and its gotta be la lifestyle not a diet. I had no idea what I weighed til the Dr. last week. Good work sir.
Thanks! Same to you.
Great job HR. You are an inspiration to me.
Thank you sir.
Your welcome Trena. Best of luck!
When one has diabetes, as I do, you are hungry all of the time.
Sometimes you can be hungry, eat a full meal and still be just as hungry as you were before the meal.
Keep the weight off and try to avoid having diabetes as much as you can.
Thank you, I will check him out. I understand what is going on. The cells don't get the glucose they need.
I am glad you lost weight and are determined to keep it off. A lot of people have heart attacks in their 50's.
Your weight loss story was very interesting and other videos along the same line would be helpful to your subscribers I feel.
Thanks for letting me know. :)
Chris InKilleen, thank you for your concern and offer to help. I will keep you in mind. God bless you. Steve
congrats to you ... I knew something was up lol and happy it wasn't an illness and Btw I am a coffee hog too I drink it all the time, it's 12 30 am and I'm drinking a cup now, I need to stop my heavy smoking habit though, I'm a small guy that can use about 10 to 12 pounds. Keep it up you look good and you're happy with who you are and till next time Happy eating!
Thank you! btw, coffe is my friend, It has gotten me through many a long, long, midnight shift!
18winsagin, I'll be 73 at the end of the year. I've been smoking since I was 16. It was the norm back then. I still smoke (close to a pack of a day. Winston regular red box), and not ashamed to admit it. Seldom are the joys in this life. Never was that fond of food. I only eat once a day. Dinner. Coffee? Oh yes. A cup goes hand and hand with a Winston. At this age, these are the end of days. Infirmed at 80? I don't think so, 18winsagin. But to each his own.
@@82luft49 Hello @82 Luft I just noticed your reply from 4 years ago, I hope you are still doing well, yes I fo enjoy my cigarette, American Spirit brand lately. They burn slow and taste really good to me, little more money but last 2 to one compared to the Kools.
Thanks for being brutally honest-think most everyone I knew in the military battled their weight after getting out; I sure have!
My respect for you for your knowledge of firearms is Now, eclipsed by my New respect for you as a human being.
(Thank You)
You were essentially intermittent fasting. No snack at night and skipping breakfast.
You don't need to skip breakfast to lose weight. It's a terrible idea.
@@mysterymeat586 i don't wake up early enough for breakfast i wake up at 10 immediately do 15km on a exercise bike eat lunch at 12 eat dinner at 6 or 7 is that bad?
Good, bad, ugly dunno.
Matt, my apologies for my snarky remark. I'll leave it up for the flame throwers and not erase it. But I'm not a dietician nor a doctor. I was originally echoing what has been drummed into my head my whole life about eating breakfast. I don't think it needs to be done as soon as you put your pants on and I also don't think a piece of fruit or glass of oj will cut it. If interested in knowing, I drive a truck here on So Cal locally.
However it works out, his system is still working three years later. That’s great.
But I have always heard that one should eat breakfast like a King, lunch like a Prince and dinner like a Pauper. The idea being, that eating a heavy meal before bedtime (not just before bedtime, but as a last main meal Of the day), leaves You with unburnt calories all night.
A big (bigger?) breakfast replenishes you and carries you over to the upcoming meals. Breakfast is supposed to help your thought processes too. Which should be helpful if you have a “normal” (daytime) work schedule.
Mmmmmm...Pancakes.
Your American flag is backwards. Stars on the left, Marine. Take a lap.
LMFAO
I am 54, very similar situation to you. 23 years military, but went on to IT administration. Yes flying a desk. I am 6-1". Top weight was 322. I am down to 255 with a personal goal of 215. My military retirement weight. My close friend and shooting budy had a heart attack, survived. But he was in a little bit better physical shape than me. Same doctor pre-diabetic visit. It is a wake up call. Problem is, if you ignore that call. No good can come from that.
Agreed. Good luck John!
Came to your channel to watch you shoot the S&W 66 but saw this. Congratulations on the weight loss! Subscribed!
Thank you!
Man I really needed to see this video, thank you. My job has put so much weight on me over the last couple of years. Sitting on a locomotive for 12 hours will do that. I have to learn to let myself feel hungry sometimes
Jobs like ours, in my case I was sitting in a police car, or in the office, really do take a toll over time. Good luck to you!
Hard work has paid off for you, HR . I’m trying to live a healthier life style as I retired 5 years ago. I do exercise everyday by brisk walking 4 miles. Now I just need to get my will power in gear to diet better.
Best of luck Paul!
One has to watch the amount of sodium ingested as well. The maximum sodium intake for an adult male, according to the FDA, is 2,420 mg per day, and they would like to bring that figure down to 1,500. One thing to lower one's sodium level, is to switch from processed deli turkey, to fresh turkey still on the bone. That would be harder to find though. I "almost fainted" when I heard about the pretzels. Even "no salt added" pretzels are high in sodium. I go for those "Hint of Salt" Triscuit crackers at 50 mg of sodium in 6 crackers, and they're made from whole wheat. Too much sodium can lead to high blood pressure, hypertension, heart attack or stroke. High blood pressure can also damage one's kidneys. My best advice, is to ask a medical doctor and a nutritionist. An adjustment in nutrition quality can improve one's wellness without changing caloric intake. Talk to a doctor first. Thanks for the videos! P.S. A bottle of "Spike", no salt added, can deliver lots of flavor without adding sodium. One can find it in most health food stores. You might want to check out "Diet for a Small Planet", by Dr. Francis Moore Lappe. It shows how to combine grains and vegetables to get protein. "Food for thought". Hope this helps!
You're a very polite person. This video was very helpful. I wish more youtubers were more like you.
Thank you!
wow... I just stopped drinking sodas, stopped eating bread and do the gym at least twice a day for one hour session. I am happy for you HrFunk. IT feels good in the long run.
Yes it does!
I'll have to loose 65 lbs. to fit into my CG uniform. Thanks for the video on this topic. It is an incentive.
You're welcome. good luck!
Perfect video. I am 55 and keep adding a little weight each year after retiring. I am on the turnaround and will need to cut my 24 hour calorie intake. I just started with a few weeks of cutting wood(9k altitude) and then 5 days of very hard hunting at 9 thousand feet. I dropped 10 pounds, and like when I dropped 20 pounds a few years back on a longer hunt, I looked in the mirror and said to myself another 20 might show up! It's amazing how much fat can be on your back side. So 24 hour calorie count will be in order. The one thing that happens hunting and cutting wood is I'm out of the house away from the junk. This last hunt I would eat a few things for breakfast then leave the trailer all day. I would return at dark, tired and eat a Marie Callender's tv dinner and go to bed(no snaking after dinner). Those are dinners much smaller than what I would normally eat without hunting. The exercise is one thing, but cutting 24 hour calories is really where it will work. Thanks for the motivation!
You’re welcome. Good luck!
Your video inspired me to have a go at losing weight. I went to a 500 + 500 + 1000 calorie regime. In ten days my weight is down from 122.6 kg to 117.7. That us really far too rapid a weight loss to be safe from what I can gather, but I am feeling no hunger and no other I'll effects. At 57 I feel rejuvenated and simply getting out of my chair or off the toilet is much easier. I really need to crack on and incorporate some exercise into my regime. I am finding counting the calories fun and informative. Thank you very much (from Orkney, Scotland) for inspiring me to do this and keep up the good work. Chris.
Congratulations Chris! Keep up the great work. I just left your lovely country two days ago. My wife and I spent a week in Edinburgh.
@@hrfunk Edinburgh is a truly fantastic city, but there is s lot more to see and do here in Scotland. I hope you and your lovely wife make it over again soon.
We took a trip up through the highlands. That was great. Someday I would like to see the western part of the country as well as the northern islands.
Thanks for your input - I watch your channel and thought you've always been fit. Thanks for telling us the "rest of the story".
My pleasure Paul. Thanks for watching!
Brutally honest about yourself; gotta like that, and I respect anyone who will do it in front of a group.
Thanks! This was the hardest video I ever recorded.
Good job. Semper Fi and happy birthday Marine.
Thanks for this video. I am 69 and I can not lose weight.
I will be contacting my DR. and let him know about your success and I would like to attempt your diet plan.
Your description of your journey the last 6.5 months is the BEST infor I have ever heard from anyone on a diet. Your actions are the better than any I have received from ANY doctor.
As, I have Type II Diabetes and I would certainly enjoy joy, NOT Taking injections.
Thanks again.....
BuzzardBait48 You're welcome. Best of luck!
Glad I stumbled upon this video. Had a back injury over 10 years ago and a subsequent surgery which resulted in me packing on the weight. I'm not as active as I used to be due to lingering back pain, Docs wanted to do another surgery, that was a resounding HELL NO!! I need to shed about 50 lbs to get back to my ideal weight, 220, when I retired from the Corps. Going to try out your caloric intake and see how it goes. Thank you
Best of luck Wade. Semper Fi!
Great job getting your health back devil dog...you are an inspiration!
Thank you!
You are one of the few that conquered themselves through discipline ! Perfect freedom can only be obtained through perfect discipline. Congrats and God Bless!
Congrats man. I respect ppl who take responsibility for their health.
Thanks Stephen!
I know 3 people who actually tried nutrisystem for about 8 months each, and they each lost between 40 and 60 pounds in that period. So I would say it works. But man great to see this story. Been a subscriber for a while.
Thanks! I'm glad N/S worked for those people you know!
Thanks for the inspiration HR.
You’re welcome. Best of luck to you.
Re-visiting this video. Need motivation and a guide because I need to lose some weight, myself. I, too, don’t really care about the scale…..just as long as the clothes that I want to wear, fit well. Am still working overseas, but am returning home in late October for my 40th Class Reunion, at The Citadel, so that is my timeline. Thanks for your support. Hope to see more of your videos.
Best of luck Jason!
Super inspirational. Thank you Sir. I'm all in.
Best of luck to you!
First, thankyou for your service.
This "diet" is similar to what I implemented to lose wait a few years back. No fast food, no food after 9:00 p.m., no Cokes (soda), and I carried a case of bottled water in my car and drink a bottle whenever a craving arose. As for what, when and how much I ate, I ate anything at lunch and dinner and as much as I wanted.
No exercise other than 2-30 minute walks a day.
Over a 10 month period I lost 80 pounds.
I kept the weight off for a few years.
I deviated from my routine a few years back (hard divorce), but at age 59 I have to something. I know I did it once and have confidence I can do it again.
Best of luck to you!
This is the first truly honest discussion of weight loss I’ve come across. Explaining your motivation at the start is key. Staying away from beer will be difficult but doable. Thank you.
You’re welcome, best of luck!
As a fellow over weigh serviceman, I should tell you that I enjoyed your weight loss talk more than your talks on weapons. I am certain that it will do more good in terms of saving the lives of your listeners than anything you say about firearms. I would encourage you to make more of these videos. Way to go and congrats on losing the weight for health's sake.
Thank you!
Just subscribed today and I'm enjoying your insights. It sounds like the way you lost weight is what dieticians would describe as "intermittent fasting." You don't eat between your evening meal and the next lunch, which has actually been shown to be the most effective way to lose excess weight. Best wishes for your future health and long life.
Thanks for the sub! I've been told about "intermittent fasting" before. All I can say is it worked for me.
This video is surely helpful for me.
Thank You, Sir.
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching!
I just turned 64. I've been to more funerals of good, make that great, peoples funerals.
I feel ya.
Don’t sweat it bro your doing great. Congrats on the weight loss.
Thank you Steve!
Nice video. I was a career Security enforcement Officer, before the Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis became to much and i had to go on disability. Now because of both of these auto- immune diseases i am a diabetic. And i want to let you know that diet pop is Not as safe as they say. All the artificial sugars are NOT good for anyone. in reality they can cause increased hunger in people. I myself found out when i cut out the diet pop during the day,i was not eating all night after supper. Plus i started loosing weight. i'm down from 258lbs to about 245lbs. Better then i was,and still more to go. I thank you for your video, it is going to inspire me to loose even more.
You're welcome. Good luck!
Well done, hr. Congrats .
Thank you!
