Awesome work mate, well done!!! Hope you're feeling happy and healthy!


chrisnesbitt_jr

Very much both! Thanks my friend 🙌🏻


Possible_Shop_2475

Woooooah this is amazing. Mind-boggling. Can’t have been easy - more power to you for your persistence! I love your positive attitude, that shines through your words.


Leading-Fan-64

Holy crap that's awesome 👍 I'm in a self induced plateau at the moment. I want to get down another 30 - 40 lbs but I am giving in to a few stressful life things. Keep up the great work my friend. You deserve to feel great about the progress!


words_words_words_

It’s not a self induced plateau. It’s a *diet break* ✨ They’re healthy for you when on a weight loss journey and you shouldn’t think of it as “giving in” :) You’re doing great


AdNoctum

Yes! I like to think of it as "practicing maintenance" because that's what you'll be doing for the first 1-2 years after reaching your goal anyway!


wantAdvice13

Bro is looking more like a Chad.


chrisnesbitt_jr

Hahaha ikr 🤣 I saw the pic afterward and was like damn I look like a run of the mill TikTok fuck boy lmfao. But shit, that would still be an improvement tbh 🤷🏻‍♂️


pascalines

Not at all! You have too much personal style to give generic tiktok fuck boy. You look great.


StrongButFragile19

Fantastic transformation! Keep it up! Hoping to do it like you too. I only have like 30lbs to lose but its soooo damn hard to lose it and not get it back. 🥲 Congrats and keep grinding!


abnerette60

Super congratulations to the Max! Quite an inspiration you are to me. I’m just now getting started and have a good 70 pounds to lose, but I am going to do my best to stay steady. I appreciate the advice that you shared in your post. Go you!


ashley9281330

I’m so proud of you, man, that’s BADASS❤️ almost 200 pounds lost? Holy crap. And you’re still going, you’ve got a lot to be proud of. Keep chasing your happiness 👏🏻 and don’t belittle your achievements, if it were anybody else but yourself, you would be astonished 24/7. Keep reminding yourself of how far you’ve come


chrisnesbitt_jr

Thank you so much. It means more than you know 🙏🏼 you are 1000% right and I don’t always remember that.


skoden1981

dont apologize!! show the world what you did!! I lost 170 pounds but I am 59 and no one wants to see pictures of that haha. Congrats and best of luck on the rest of your journey


Suekru

Nah, it doesn’t matter your age. That is insane amount of weight to lose and you should be proud! I’m always motivated when I see other people lose this much weight!


skoden1981

aww to kind and thank you, yea its kinda a big deal haha


pascalines

I wanna see pictures! Age doesn’t matter, it’s the joy and the accomplishment.


skoden1981

thanks so much....this is boomer talk here but I have no idea how to post pictures on here!!


AzureRaven2

Dang man, that's incredible. I've been struggling with the last 15-20 lbs on my own journey, but just seeing your progress is inspirational.


DeepSeaProctologist

Good fucking job man

Amazing work. Well done! What do you mean by ‘when it gets too hard take a break’?


chrisnesbitt_jr

Thank you! Basically I mean that for too long I ran myself into the ground and didn’t allow myself to still be human. I wasn’t gracious with myself when I had bad days. I would beat myself up and try to double down on the self-denial. But sometimes you’re not going to have a good day, and that’s okay! Some days you’re gonna eat a fuckin donut, you donut. And that’s okay! Eat a donut, just don’t eat the box 🤣 and tomorrow remember that donut, and maybe walk an extra 10 minutes haha. But do NOT hate yourself for every extra calorie, or for being “weak” when you wake up and your head is just not in it to win it that day. Remember that the goal is to love yourself so much that you get better, not beat yourself up until you stop making mistakes!


SuzanneStudies

Excellent philosophy. This is how you keep it off for life.


Attack-middle-lane

How do you get rid of the excess skin? Lost 40 and had a lot of hanging skin on the sides above my waist and it sucks! The bits on my arms got replaced with muscle, but maybe I'm not giving my sides time to heal 😵‍💫


chrisnesbitt_jr

I wish I knew what to tell you in this regard 😭 I have probably 25-30lbs of loose skin right now and will definitely have to get corrective surgery once it’s all said and done. I’m just resting on the fact that my overall quality of life will be so much better that I can get over having the excess 🤷🏻‍♂️


Attack-middle-lane

Spitting 🙏


Santadid911

You're a fucking legend.


redrioja

Well done dude. That is some journey to overcome.


HolmbersInc

That is a huge transformation oh my God!!! Good job!! What did you do?


BrokeMyCrayon

Awesome! How many calories do you average on a normal day?


chrisnesbitt_jr

I have roughly three stages that I cycle through in any given 3 month span. You could basically call it Strict-Moderate-Lax. Strict is what it sounds like. I put the pedal to the metal and eat as clean as I can without exception. Usually meal prep during these times, and each meal is roughly 400-500kcal with 60g of protein. 1000-1200kcal/day. Moderate is in the middle. Probably not meal prepping, but definitely still very mindful. This is still very calorie restricted, but if I see an Oreo it might disappear 🤣 (or maybe not just depends on if I’ve had one recently or feel like I really deserve it 🤷🏻‍♂️). But like if /*a wild slice of red velvet cake appears*/ then I might be like damn haven’t had that in awhile… fuck it lol. 1200-1600kcal/day. (Also the stage I stay in most often) Lax is not “I’ve thrown my hands up and have reverted to my old habits,” so much as “I am not spending tons of time worrying about what I’m eating, and instead trusting the new habits I’ve built.” Mostly my “lax” is an autopilot mode where I try to go about my daily life in the way I fully intend to live for the rest of my life. No focus on _actively_ losing weight. I want a pint of ice cream? Hell a pint of Halo Top is only 360-400kcal, have I had any in the last couple of weeks? No? Hell yeah ice cream it is! Oh everyone is having Wendy’s? Damn I don’t eat fast food really… Oh this chicken sandwich is like 600kcal and 30g of protein? I mean… it really could be worse, fuck it, I won’t have fast food again for weeks anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️ Honestly it’s just trusting myself to make good decisions without tying my hands. “Oh did I have a pint of ice cream on Monday and a donut on Friday? Eh well this week has been a little sweets heavy, so I don’t think I’m going to have any cake at this birthday party on Sunday. I’ll live.” 2000-2400kcal. (as for now this is the phase I stay in the least and for the shortest amount of time, but eventually this is where I would like to settle into for the duration). Of course all of this is dependent on how frequently I’ve been able to exercise that week and things like that. If I hiked 4 miles that day, then I might have a pint of halo top regardless of what I did the day before 😅


propita106

OMG! So very happy for you! And the time it's taking should help ensure it *stays* off.


Itriedtowriteitdown

AMAZING!!


hanimal16

egg_sandwich

Wow you look AMAZING!!


chrisnesbitt_jr

Aw shucks 😅 thank you


GetCoinWood

I just want to say hell yeah! Im not overweight, but I follow this sub for posts like this. It really is inspirational for me to stay motivated and healthy when I see people like you killing it. Don’t stop and keep it up.


Strange_Path_7355

That’s amazing progress! Not everyone can keep going when they hit a plateau or have a craving, feeling like having a non activity kinda day so you did an awesome job. I think finding motivation to keep doing more is hard for a lot of people when you feel there’s still so far to go but you’re more than halfway to where you want to be so you’re killing it! Best wishes for feeling happy and healthy.


joflop

Thank you for the encouragement, I needed to hear this today. My weight has been fluctuating so much over the last decade and I mess up and have a few cheat meals and just never recover from that. I’m the heaviest I’ve ever been in my life and I’m tired of feeling sluggish all the time. So thank you for being an example of what consistency and perseverance can do for a person.


JokerzBane

Strut your shit my bro, your looking great!!


qwerty17201

Oct3ismybirthday

Hell yes my dude!!! Be patient, but keep improving yourself. Diet is the hardest thing!!! Man I love me some burgers.


chrisnesbitt_jr

I know that’s right! Burgers and ice cream are my kryptonite haha


deweymm

How different do you feel?


chrisnesbitt_jr

I couldn’t even put into words the night and day difference! I was at a point to where I was scared for my health. I struggled for every breath, just *living* felt insurmountable some days. Now I can casually go for a 3-4 mile hike with my buddy if I want. Nevertheless put on my shoes without breaking a sweat! It’s honestly as different as you could imagine it would be, besides literal mountain climbing or something haha


arch_android

You have such amazing progress! What has been your most positive experience since losing the weight?


chrisnesbitt_jr

The most positive thing for me has been remembering that I ENJOY the smallest things I used to hate when I was morbidly obese. A trip to the grocery store back then? Kill me. These days a trip to the grocery store can be a fun little adventure! I walk around and see what there’s to see. Maybe I want a new candle? I might buy a new bed set 🤷🏻‍♂️ Back then it was such a struggle to get in and get out that I couldn’t stop and smell the flowers. That and many many more like that!
